![]() It’s a few month old thread but I wanted to update with the proper info for anyone else looking through here. Someone's gotta have a bike safety lying around somewhere close by. So where do you reccommend I go to get my 28 year old bike "easily" safetied? Perhaps a shop with a soft spot for old superbikes? Yes I know, been a car guy since 16, I've seen the range. ![]() Between waiting on ebay parts, or parts from the dealer, dying from the coronavirus etc., don't want that time constraint and be out $80 plus tax. Interesting, but I may not get the work done within 10 days, and safeties have recently got stupid expensive. Rosey Toes did my last bike a decade ago, but as I said, I do all my work, the bike I safetied then was practically brand new so I knew they couldn't shaft me for something, I'm very mechanically inclined also so going into a shop with a bike with 1000km on it, hard for them to argue it needs something. Yeah, my auto mechanic is always bitching about how expensive each of those certificates are, not sure if true. ![]() If not will just get some automotive reflective adhesive for the safety. Tell me more about these reflectors, which ones are required? I have them somewhere, I think. If you know of a certified motorcycle mechanic not employed by a bike shop feel free to PM me.īike was pretty stock "safety-wise",I just spent quite a bit of time de-ricing it. Very interesting, always thought the business had to have a license issued by the province. Businesses simply cannot legally sell a 6 year or older tire in Canada. You can have 40 year old tires and pass a safety, as long as they're not cracked, worn, etc. No, the rule is 6 years, and it is for the legal sale of tires. Responsible driver with clean record, so again, save me the schpeel. My colourful and loud superbike is going to be no different, probably worse. Especially with an "interesting" vehicle. I've driven with many a T plates over the years, yes, you stick out like a sore thumb, and yes you get pulled over. Want to get all the certificate's requirements done to just go and get the certificate and sticker so I don't get hassled by the police. I do all my work myself so don't want to pay the shop for the work or twice for the safety. Please spare me the "well go take the bike in and find out what it needs" schpeel. ![]() I am familiar with the automotive one as I have had many auto safeties done but can't recall what's involved with the bike safety.Ĭan any shop that does auto safeties do bike safeties?Īnyone have a copy of a bike safety so I can see the list? ![]() What's involved with an Ontario motorcycle safety? Last time I did one was was on my first bike over a decade ago, and the bike was brand new so wasn't a worry. I do all my work myself so might as well get cracking. Yes, I know the COVID situation exemption technically extends my T plate beyond the 10 days. Want to get my Ontario safety done so I can get my proper sticker when the time comes. Got my plates and 10 day temporary T sticker from MTO. Just got my new (to me) bike legal on the road. Been off two wheels on the street for a very long time, finally turned 30 and got "Ontario good" rates on my types of bikes if you know what I mean. ![]()
