does anyone know what is being checked while getting a safety on a motorcycle in ontario or anywhere in generel

Answer 1

Head light - high & low beam
Tail light
F & R brake light
Turn signals
No cracked lenses - head light, tail light, turn signals.
Tires - 2/32 inches tread depth in the center and no dry-rot on side walls.
Horn - must be loud enough to hear in traffic (not like a limp duck).
Brakes - not worn down to wear limits.
Mirror - at least one and not broken
Steering bearings - can't be loose, or have any indents.
Fork seals - no leaks.
No leaks of any fluids
In the USA these are the quick checks (must have, most important). If the inspection station dis-likes you, they can think up some technicalities. If this stuff passes "your own" inspection and the inspection station won't pass your bike, take it to another inspection station.
