    Man scammed by a fake certified cheque, lost polaris slingshot

    I've done that before. While I can't speak for everyone, I do it because I don't want strangers looking inside my home. So, when I’m the buyer visiting someone else's place, I make an effort to show them the same respect I’d want to receive.

    Who's still riding? (Fall & Winter 2024 Edition)

    Today is one of the rare days I need to go to the office in DT Toronto. I'm considering whether I should take the Triumph or use the TTC. I'm not worried a our the cold (heated gear for the win! ) but rather I'm concerned about the precipitation and the possibility of black ice on the roads. I...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I used the same app. However, I was not getting readings on every single pluck of the belts. I did that one the correct way. Thank you both for your help; it is very much appreciated.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    The position of the movable belt tensioner was not adequate (thingy circled in green in the photo). I struggled a lot with getting the correct tension for both belts. In the case of the vertical cylinder, first, I tried positioning the tensioner up, but the hertz measurement was not accurate...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Today, I finally wrapped up replacing the timing belts on my Monster.* *Pros:** - I saved a bunch of cash by doing it myself. - I love working on my bikes and learn something new. **Cons:** - I ended up putting in over 10 hours on a NAKED bike! A couple of years back, I thought about buying a...

    I saw your post, but at that time I was still struggling with putting the bike half together.

    Getting a 10d Permit for a Safety

    Yes. I did that last year. Seller sent the bike to my place by tow truck. I insured the bike that same day. Two or three days after I went to SO to get it registered under my name. They gave me my license plate and a temporary sticker, which if I don't remember wrong is valid for 10 days from...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I don't have the appropriate tools, and I'm scared of leaving the engine open at night in the open air. 😬 Here's an update on my timing belt task: The probability of succeeding or failing is 50/50 right now. I've refitted the new bells, but for some reason, the vertical belt cover is not...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I can only work on my bikes in my open-air backyard; therefore, in the last couple of months, I've been wrenching on and off whenever the temperature and precipitation have given me a break. The weather forecast seems promising for tomorrow. Thus, I'm taking the day off from work, hoping to wrap...
