I am sure someone weill comment, I think the last time we were there, I am sure we paid cash. This is noted on the website, so they might have interact based on interent connecttion, but I would go with the assumuption cash and consider interact as a bonus. "We do NOT have cell phone service, but we do have Starlink Wi-Fi. We have no hydro and rely on generators and an oil heater"

So for those that have done the Gaspe trip, would it be best to wait for the trail that is closed to open back up to do this trip - put it off for a year? And, does anyone know for sure if the trails is closed just for this year, partial or the entire year (Im sure based on how things progress), what is the projected completion date? With bridge repairs being the challenge or issue, how big are these bridges in need of repair or possibly replacement?

Here is hoping I’m still good this year with my set up….muffs and thin gloves. When this doesn’t work, I’ll consider the heated option. But I agree, it sucks to have stiff fingered gloves.

Not sure you can clean up all that old stuff and part of the reason for the new page, to start with a clean slate. been lots of not so good dialogue. Here’s hoping the new ownership maintains better relations with polar bear riders.

x2.....I was looking at the website, that is nice and it mentioneds fuel, and the facebook page, that is the same one as before.....figured with new owners, maybe a new FB page too.

I beleive the call in is the way as well - witnessed it on a sled, but of course I assume the resources a cop has on a sled is not the same as in the cruiser, but why would the insurance industry open up their data base to others, insurance companies are very funny when it comes to exposure......for good reasons of course! And I am hearing more people use the wallat app to keep all their electronic files with them for these things as well - is it approved process, no idea......I have the old fashioned papers.....lol

Not sure what else is bineg done to get signatures, but there needs to be a lot more than just the folks from this forum or other forums signing it, IMO. I signed it as well though!

Ya, same….perhaps because you still pay…lol

Nope. Rather pop into dealer and pickup the complete kit.

Sorry, I missed this reply - there ya go, 60 to 70 to piece it out!

Correct, oil filter cartridge with o-ring for oil filter compartment lid. The Doo kit is just easy, imo…regardless of warranty or not. I think around 120 ish. comes with oil, filter and o-rings/seals for both filter and two drain plugs. Sure could buy for less, not sure how much less, maybe 80 bucks if you piece it all out, just a guess. But to each their own.

I like my cans, easier to travel with and fits better in garage beer fridge

I got some used oil still in “good” shape for cheap cheap too if ya interested.

Mental note, never buy anything from strongfarmer….lol

Priceless!!!

What ya thinking , a 2 or 3 beer job…lol No tall boys of course.

@Nunz just did a newb trip last year, maybe some info to share.

I wonder if people even notice the price on premium, just see the standard grade price and assume all stations have the same price point mark up for mid and high octane.

Perhaps some try too….lol

Bad example and part of the reason for the issues we are seeing Good example - being accountable for your actions, dealing with, not blaming others or looking for the quick exit. I think you are right as well, officers now a days do not even need to be in court, all done through video conference in their cruiser, etc....,

I am sure I can google it, but how do you run a lien search on a sled? I have sold a few sleds and no one that made the purchase, did this, that I know of.....of course there never was a lien on any of them either I always bought new or the one demo from a dealer. I have bought more used dirt bikes in the past though - never ever a search on them, but times are different now!

Ya, I know......every action has a reaction - but I still will not complain about one less thing that I am paying directly......vs. indirectly....lol I thought the emissions testing was dead, no future plans for passenger vehicles.....at least with this government? Some were talking about a new system, but that was just the rumour mill working in overdrive, I thought.

I would say me too, but I recall this advertising was hard to miss between bill boards and commercials on the radio. I recall the exact same thing, officer does not need to do anything, the system scans as it drives and I guess gives a warning if a plate comes up that is an issue.

Oh, that sure does suck. Thanks for the info!

It was pretty heavily advertised a year or so ago. Process is, log onto ontario.ca / renew your license, etc....provide the info required i.e. license plate number and the permit number on your ownership, confirm your address is correct, supply odometer reading, pay the bill if you are buying for sled, receive email confirmation and voila, you are done! Than as noted, sign up for reminder if you like for sticker, license, health card, etc.....that are all taken care by Ontario service center contractors. I find it hard to complain about this since it is one more money grab removed, just like emission testing crap, etc... Many more to go.....
