    Downtown bike parking “fun”

    I put a ton of miles on my FZ6 and then got a 2nd gen FZ1, wasn't nearly as huge a fan of the FZ1. - Gobs of power to the point that it was way too much for city riding. First gear will take you up to 140 or so. Even with a 1 down front sprocket there just isn't much need to shift when in the...

    The 2024 Great GTAM Blackout

    Roamed around downtown until I found Ossington still had power, hunkered down there and got some work done. Based on my microwave, I only lost power between 1 and 2:30 or so.

    Vacations and big poppas adventures

    I have been all over Colombia, what are you looking for? Cali is ok if a little dull, safety warnings seemed a bit overblown as it felt perfectly fine when I was there.

    What are you reading?

    I have and would just get a Kindle (have a current gen Paperwhite right now). They have 90% market share and are the default product in this space.

    900,000 students coming in…

    A little hyperbolic. One has a direct relation to the ability to perform the function, the other is tenuous at best. I would be very curious what level they are testing on. I'm not outright against this just questioning what basis they see to implement it. Way too many adults lack the ability...

    900,000 students coming in…

    I know nothing about this, but what is the point here? Why does an english or history teacher need math skills?

    Bluetooth, where to start!

    I have used a Sena 20S for about 7 years now and it has been great for what I need which is to basically stream music and the occasional phone call. The jogdial broke last year and I found a replacement unit for $20. Haven't upgraded to the new bigger speakers ($45), but will be doing that this...

    Who has yet to ride this year?

    Zero miles for me so far. Was swamped with work and weather wasn't super awesome so wasn't in a rush. Then broke my wrist a couple weeks ago so can't ride until it heals 😭

    Mechanics' Lien Act

    Email authorization would provide just as good of a paper record. One of those things where most shops don't worry about these things because 99.9% of the time it is a non-issue, for the other 0.01% you just have to suck it up and admit to yourself you didn't cover yourself as best as you could...

    Mechanics' Lien Act

    I think this is something that Ontario gets right. Consumer Protection Act lays out pretty clearly what is required for an authorized estimate. Most of us are consumers, the protections in the Act are best for all of us...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    Not sure on current pricing, but they used to be $5 a form, 20 forms in a book like that. MTO keeps track of who ordered the book by the serial numbers of the certificates within.
