Safety Checklist for Ontario Canada residents

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone here know where I can download a copy of a Safety Standards Checklist I can use to check over my wife's bike to get it ready for a safety inspection?

Thanks,
Chuck

 

I can't think of anyplace off hand but I can tell you from recent experience that they check the following:

Horns
Signal lights
Brake lights
Head light
Licence plate light
Front brake
Fork seals
Rear brake
Rear brake pedal height
Tires - tread, condition of rubber
Kill switch
Any reflectors required for that model of bike

Some shops also check the following:
Bike runs
Bike doesn't jump out of gear
Exhaust mounting
Swing arm condition


That should be the brunt of it. I'll have a look for my inspection and scan it to the forum. No promises though - it's been awhile since I seen it...

Good luck!

 

I just had mine done, they check all of the above, and the guy checked my chain (found out that it was stretched and needed a new one). They also check all the wheel bearings and neck bearings.

 

At most places if you take the bike in ask for a pre-safty they well tell you what it needs. You can fix it. Then they will safty it, Just for the cost of one safty. Hope that helps

 

Sorry, this is probably too late for you but for anyone else who's looking:
