Do I need a cat to pass safety?
If a bike has an aftermarket exhaust for example. Full exhaust, not just the can. No cat.

I wanna see.It's one spicy meatball. That's for sure

Nothing $10 can't fix.Almost every shop is different. Some will write you a ticket with a bare minimum of inspection, others are a lot tougher. I know if one place that will not pass a bike with worn footpeg feelers.
Really? The province allows dealerships and use car lots that sells you a vehicle to make and pass the inspections themselves? I would have reported Snow City to the MTO.Age of the tires is a guideline. For the purposes of the safety, there has to be enough tread and there can’t be any cracks in the tread.
This is an area where I’ve butted heads with Snow City. They sold me a certified used bike that had tires with cracks on the sidewalll. When I called them on it they said it technically passed so deal with it.
I brought the bike to my local bike mechanic that I had used for a few years at that point. He took a look at the bike and said that he never would have passed it and it shouldn't have. I called Snow City and told them what the other shop had said and they had the option of sending a new tire to my local shop and covering the labour for the install or get reported. They sent the tire and dealt with the bill.Really? The province allows dealerships and use car lots that sells you a vehicle to make and pass the inspections themselves?
