Right before Christmas, I took my car to a nearby recommended auto shop to change winter tires. The very next day one tire almost comes off on DVP. It was hanging in by 1 bolt and jammed breaks. Today my insurance informed me they will cover the damages but they won’t go after the tire shop...

Searching for a drug, and possibly dental combo insurance, for my mother. So far Costco seems to have a reasonably good drug coverage under manulife. Dental not so much. Any recommendations for plans/companies? TIA

Been feeling sad and down since my parked bike was run down by a truck downtown on Thursday. Just shy of 10 years and 152,000km, only owner. FZ6 Thankfully the cop on construction duty made sure the driver doesn’t do a runner. The bike still works, rode to collision centre, but the...

So I had my bike parked yesterday in a shopping plaza (private property), and when I came back found a note. No name or number on the note. There was a time frame, license plate #, car make, and to check camera cause it got rear ended. Doesn’t sound like it was done by whoever left the note...

My first bike broke down years ago and was sitting collecting rust. A real ‘backyard ornament’ Now the parking situation has changed, and I need to have it removed. There’s nothing much to salvage from it I think. It’s 250 vstar. Who do I call?? TIA

So it seems like everyone is on edge downtown. This guy parked so close to my bike I couldn't straighten it out. He showed up few minutes later, backed into my bike hitting it, I 'tapped' his car so he stops, (was sitting on bike whole time) so he comes out and arguing. He claimed he only heard...

Been using CBI for years, but their cut hours usually don't work with my schedule anymore. Anyone has recommendation for another service that has longer open hours? Or used something like a box pickup setup? (http://247parcel.com) I'll probably still continue using cbi as I occasionally order...

Hey guys, I got an easylock saddle bag that was damaged in a slide a while back. I took it to my usual zipper repair person but he couldn't fix the zipper, and said he can't change it either because of the materials around. Any ideas where i can fix it in TO? I need bigger sized bags for touring...

Long story short, I need to get to Long Island area this weekend (Jones Beach theater) and would prefer to take the bike. Unless it's extreme downpour write off, so I'll drive. Quickest route is via NYC but I'm not sure how much toll fees I'll be paying for the route other than first $15 tunnel...

Not sure which forum this should fall under, but I'm looking into purchasing insurance travel packages for the year, instead of single trips, that's more coverage then just medical. Something that will cover States bike trips for medical purposes, but also trip cancellation/interruption, and...

So on Sunday a guy pushed my bike (according to cops he's crazy) it fell and got some scratches. My first thought was small claims court to get a lean in case he'll get money. I don't want to raise my own rate for something I didn't do. Though folks keep telling me to call insurance first. I'm...
