Get by with landline just fine, gave up cell couple years ago. Feeling vulnerable on the road without cellphone. Initial search reveals metric ton of info to wade thru on phones and plans/features. Only need emergency calls to CAA. Could somebody give me a starting point?

Just curious about any legal aspects as I'm particularly weak in that area. Say your toodling down a quiet country road enjoying the scenery and a guy on loud raunchy bike comes up behind you, crosses over the double yellow and pins it. You stick your arm out the window and let the camera flash...

Put away damp pulled out musty. Still usable from a microbiological standpoint or burn to ground?

I used search, could not find. Which is favourite?

Quiet. Spooky quiet.

Eewwww. Do you do that fairly regular? I just did mine from riding all last year without wash. Tons of nasty dirt and oil came out of that. Used a Lowes food grade pail with hot water and dish soap. Bunch of rinse cycles and air dry with pedestal fan. Mmmmmm nice.

OK, so I converted an old Buell into a single seater, never to carry a passenger again (cafe racer hump is oil tank now). Before I hack off the triangle passenger peg mounts I'd consider mounting reflectors or led safety lighting there. Thoughts?

Went thru the RIDE Saturday afternoon. No biggie. One question tho. While leaning into my face, as they do, the Fuzz was stepping on my foot applying enough pressure for me to notice but creating no discomfort. If anything a mildly pleasant sensation. It lasted for the full duration of the stop...

It appears there are 3 soaring gliding type clubs in the MGTA each offering introductory engineless flight. Looking for a thrill not a new hobby. Has anybody here done this? Care to share experiences?

CSB Couple days ago near midnight I heard a commotion outside. Sounded like maybe somebody rapping on back or side door or windows. In my sleepy state I couldn't figure exactly what the noise was. Grabbed the flash light, went to west side of house to see 2 people climbing into a car in the...

Swingarm is 20in. pivot to axle. Shock mount was 3in. in front of axle. Shock mount has been moved to 5in in front of axle. How much of an effect will that have on the springs? What are the odds that increased preload will compensate without going stupid on the preload. Shocks were plenty firm...

I always assumed the front wheel should be in line with the steerer tube. Mounting a custom built wheel I immediately noticed it was pulled to one side. Checking the OEM wheel revealed it also pulled to one side. I'd never noticed that before. What are the odds that's by design? 11/64 off btw.

Diving into the big spring clean out. Was just fixin' to toss a bunch of old socks and underwear. But hold on a second.....couldn't I use those as throwaways on bike trips? Yes, I believe I could. YMMV. Anyway, if you see underwear along HWY 138 Quebec this summer...........

That stuff is hard to find on a shelf locally. Even the H-D rebranded stuff they don't have in stock. Has any body bought some lately?

Does anybody deal with CSA farms? Does it work out ok?

I want to put a toggle switch in a hidden spot around the airbox to eliminate the big bulky ignition switch at the handle bars. Would that be illegal?

Very happy customer here. If you look at their website, I can confirm they are the real deal. I trusted some fairly extensive frame mods (BMW airhead, steel) to these artisans and all came out good. Pleasure to deal with.:thumbup: PS I know a guy who can put some pics up if need be.

Or Market Growth GIC's. Are they a worthwhile investment? Which are the better ones?

Does anybody know a good online vendor for body parts, specifically front fender? I'm running an 18" front wheel on DR650 touring motard. I'd like to try a low fender mounted on fork brace.

The vehicle is rated to tow 1500 pounds. I want to tow 3000 pounds. Right off the hop it's a non starter. But hold on a second, basic googling reveals difference in towing capacity is governed to a large degree, but not totally, by rear axle gear ratio. So if I change the rear drive wheels to...
