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

    100%. Already getting ready to book next year's month riding in Italy. My bike is in Salerno (the south) so I'll ride across the country again to get it up to the Alps(north). The missus will fly there directly because her and her 70+ year old dad are hiking around Mont Blanc. While they're...

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

    I don't know about you, but for me, it's both less "crazy", AND less need. I bought a condo at 23, a house at 25, but I never got a car (20 year old shitbox VW) until after, when I was 26. My brain couldn't justify the cost of a car + car insurance for a young person doing everything on my own...

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

    Yep. My dad built a little retirement home in Italy, and then didn't make it long enough to retire. Part of why I shipped one of my motorcycles to Italy last year. And spent 3-4 weeks last year, and again this year, riding across the country. The world can survive with me for a few weeks. I'm...

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

    Hmmm... I've never considered it a hobby. Maybe that's the trick? Sometimes motorcycles are just an every day method of transportation, other days it's a method of recreation, or a mental health strategy, or an challenge or adventure to conquer, or any number of things... Anything but a hobby...

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

    Yes, to everything you said. And to what you quoted me saying: "Who wouldn't still be riding? It's beautiful out, and this is Canada. If you don't ride in 10 degrees do you even like motorcycling in this country?!" I'd say that the majority of motorcycle owners that you mentioned, they don't...

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

    Who wouldn't still be riding? It's beautiful out, and this is Canada. If you don't ride in 10 degrees do you even like motorcycling in this country?! Only did a few rides yesterday because I couldn't run as many errands as I wanted (places closed for Thanksgiving). Did manage to get enough...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Did a exhaust resonator delete on a 2019 BMW F750GS today. Essentially removing this 8 lb resonator box, and replacing it with this half-pound link pipe specifically made for the F750GS/F850GS instead. (the resonator is in the wrong way in the pic but you get it) The resonator delete pipe is...

    Brembo acquires Ohlins

    Wonder if they'll make a cheapo ByOh line like they made the cheapo ByBre line.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Honestly that's the way to do it. I thought about keeping the 2006 but... I already have a half dozen bikes in the garage (most of them even run! lol). In the winter I bring two lucky bikes into the house... the missus doesn't care. Separate bank accounts and when she met me I had two bikes in...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    What does 4 years mean though? 🤔 My 2006 Ford F-150 hit 325,000 km before it started giving me more issues than I cared to deal with (work vehicle) and sold it this year. I call that reliable.

    Where do you guys go for new tires?

    Have you tried it yet? I got myself a Rabaconda "Street bike tire changer" and love it for tubeless tires and hate it for tubed tires. It was also like $300 cheaper when I got it :oops:

    Unreliability.

    Heads up folks

    Remember when, as motorcyclists, we used to look out for one another? Well, what if I told you, some of us, or even most of us, still do that? Some of us do it to help a fellow rider out. Some of us do it simply because we just aren't living pieces of ****.

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    Damn, in August I bought my 2016 F150 with 98k km and leather seats for less lol

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    There are three reasons! 1) I'm cheap 2) the Castrol was cheaper 3) I'm new to doing my own oil changes (so if there's a reason the Pennzoil would've been the better choice I'm all ears :)

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    First time doing an oil change on my new to me truck, or anything with four wheels for that matter. Had to pick up the oil and filter by bike, naturally. Was happy to see one GIVI side case easily fit 10 liters of on sale full synth 5w30 ($32.99 / 5 lt jug) with room to spare for filter and more.

    2024 MotoGP Discussion Thread (No Links - May Contain Spoilers

    Hmm, from my perspective they've been pretty generous with what they've allowed already. The concession system is so lopsided it's sad.
