I'm sad to inform I found out last week who the rider was. He was Brendan McDonnell. He was a fitness trainer at Goodlife and Lifetime Fitness in Ajax. That's where I met him. He was a big guy built like a tank with a bigger heart. He would be open to giving you advice at the gym and even...

I've been commuting from Highland Creek (Scarborough) to downtown T.O for around 10 years, mostly year round, late into December till first heavy snow fall and in the last few years have even been riding a few times in Jan, Feb March. It gets me out of bed with something to look forward to...

Ya Scarborough sucks for insurance according some of the agents I've spoken to.

Always bought used, once bought a neglected BMW R1200C- Cruiser from the boonies, then polished her up, rode her for a year sold for a $1000 profit. I would love to buy a new bike but can't bring myself to paying soooo much + HST, Admin fee, Freight etc. when there are so many nice ones out...

That's what I'm thinking but can't find anything in the $1000 range, cheapest is TD Meloche Monnex and that too with my wife being a TD employee they offered $1,178, and if I leave Pembridge now I have to pay $350 penalty so basically wiping out the savings, and TD's quote is for until Feb 2020...

Ya so that means mine at: 46 yrs old, clean record 10 yrs riding, at $1476 may be in the right ballpark?

Your location helping you on this one, I was talking to a TD rep, he said Scarborough is higher rated area therefore we pay more, we are the Bronx of Toronto :( Still I wish I can find something in the $1000 range or cheaper

Ya few places and Riders plus, they quoted me around $1300

Ya I'm DT also and they keep saying that is the best price they have through the company rosters they have, I'm thinking they are just lazy and don't want to shop around. Is your age and location similar to mine? also how long have you been licenced?

So this year my insurance for 1 bike a 2013 Honda Fury (1300cc) is $1437 ($119.75 monthly) Male Age:46 Full M since 2009 Toronto area Clean driving record, according to my broker my licence rating is at best it can be. Just want to know if my insurance is in the same ball park as everyone...

I don't wear any armour jackets anyways...I do squid in summer ?....but if you want they can make ones with armour in them I believe as they do full race track suites, give him a shout. Also I'm not just buying this a primary riding jacket I wear these and All Saints ones out and about, and on...

So just picked up a leather jacket from Lusso Leather. They are custom made to order from India and Turkey, just like the ones that you pay around $700 Plus from All Saints, Rudsak, John Varvatos and most high end fashion houses . Just here you get it custom cut to your body and design that...

You gotta get the liners from Fired Up, Here's my review on them. It will make your cold day rides much more enjoyable.

I've been commuting all year, with on and off days in Jan- Feb, what made this year easier is the heated glove liners I bought in January which lets me ride till -7. My commute in rush hour from U of T campus in Scarborough to Downtown is around an hour, and these gloves keep my fingers warm...

Yep I believe it's the Conroy one that I've been eyeing...I know it's a thin leather jacket, but it's more for street wear I'm looking for, and as bad as it seems, in the summer I'm usually riding squid anyways.

I'm in the market for a biker jacket, the vintage cruiser style, I've been eyeing All Saints jackets as their fitting, leather and looks are quite nice...just price is always in the $600 to $700 range. I stumbled upon this local custom leahter jacket maker and wanted to know if anyone here has...

Rode in today again, had some flurries but nice ride in. The whole next week looks like great to ride in as well!

I was thinking of doing this....perhaps when the weather gets much better I put the newer one on the road and put the older one as my bad weather beater. Right now I'm paying around $1900 for both.

Here's to the first day of Spring..... Took my other beast out for my commute today....was an great morning to ride. Here is one from a few weeks ago of my other lady...with a finger to Old man winter...for those who may have missed the earlier thread.

Riding season never stops for me..... Rode my Iron Horse to work today..... This year I've ridden at least once every month to work so far...Jan, Feb, March. Riding season never ends for me, both my babies are in the garage plugged into a trickle charger ready to rumble the whole year...
