This a good price? Bad price? https://www.facebook.com/share/1FU4C32Dke/ My knowledge of the German motorcycle market is very limited…

Not if I push it!

Fired up the Duc last night to make sure it actually starts this season. Happy to say no issues. Was too late and had a few drinks earlier so wasn't going to risk even around the block. Let's see how this week goes.

My tracker shows 5.9L/100km. Just being overly conservative. 5L should equal to an extra 80-100km.

It had its good points. But the boredom of riding an applicance doesn’t want to bring me back.

I want to see how much I can actually stretch it but that needs a spare canister. 170km the light starts blinking. 200km I start getting worried. 220km and I was on fumes.

Good suggestion. Something that can fit in the tail or side luggage is the best option for day trips. Will look into this. 2.5L may be a bit small….but a 5L will give me about 50km which should suffice for any emergencies.

I’ve had a handful of times where both my CB500X and Scrambler were on literal fumes when I found an open / functioning gas station. GPS states ‘gas station in 50km’. Great when fuel gauge says 70km left. Arrive only to see an abandoned gas station around Algonquin. Or closed. A small 5-10L...

I wish I looked so much thinner after a haircut…

Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission….

Just a small tribute to the man...

Watched the 'I like me' documentary about John Candy on Prime. Actually enjoyed it, and the man was a gem of a human being from all accounts that I've seen. Been over 20 years now that he's been gone.

I’ve done the math on used Focus (Focii?), Leaf, and e-Golf as a commuter but it just doesn’t make sense. Maybe someone will trade a cheap EV for a Ducati Scrambler….then the math may work lol. They all have garbage range and wouldn’t make it to work and back on a charge. 🙅‍♂️

I will remove all bike lanes and replace them with motorcycle lanes. I’d love to take a run at it….but you gotta be baller to run for any type of decent office in this country.
