My brother used to manage the Toronto "Blue Helmets"... and I used to go down and watch them practice. YEAH they drop their bikes, a LOT. They have a "move" where they rush up to the line, slam on the brakes, without putting a foot down, slam the kickstand down, then fall over onto the kick...

Yeah, but i think the cases are basically the same shape as the VT, same mounts

I bought a bunch of 'em off Aliexpress for $5 each

I see Poland as a special case... at the moment. I think a lot of people left Poland as Poland had "lost it's way". Poland is NOW trying to re-invigorate itself, back to it's past glory, and a lot of people want to be part of that, even non Poles. Poland seems to have taken it upon themselves to...

You can buy a "drop in" cartridge setup and a new shock from Maxton CHEAP, and have the best suspended Transalp out there for $1500-2000 all in, that looks stock

Brian: I gotta ask: Why aren't you running dead loss? That Shindengen Series RR is a god send, I use it on anything and everything. It'll do 1,2 or 3 phase, the new one is stronger than any motorcycle charging system I have found. If it has a shunt regulator, this reg/rec will work

you want to talk to user N234, he's put together a gymkhana group https://www.gtamotorcycle.com/xf/threads/motogymkhana-riders.215226/page-4#post-2964216

I'm waiting for a wrecked "new" Transalp... i figure the motor is a "drop in" to a RC31 (same "base" motor). I know a guy that's been working for years adapting bigger 4 valve heads and EFI to his RC31... this could have it done over a weekend.

Also? ... that's mighty inclusive of you... today being the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and all.... Having a nation day of truth and reconciliation is a pretty Canadian thing to do (the Aussies do one too... different truth, different first nation)

And being Canadian is putting maple syrup on butter chicken, and nobody wanting to kill you for doing it. Pineapple on Pizza is a Canadian thing

I have a buddy, son of europeon immigrants, that is forever complaining about the damn immigrants coming here and not adopting Canadian "Culture" Whenever i ask him he to define Canadian "Culture"... he can't come up with an answer, doesn't even try... for 45 years so far. Canada is too big and...

I ride "nakeds" and the wind isn't an issue till I hit 60-70mph. But i want to remind you that if you install a windscreen, to remove the wind forces from YOU, those wind forces are now pushing down on your front suspension... so your pre-load increases/sag decreases with speed, in a non linear...

Motorcycles ain't cheap. You can find that reg used, almost every bike manufacturer uses it. There are now two models, I don't remember the part numbers, but there is a pre Fukushima and post Fukushima (the company that makes the mosfets got washed away in the tsunami) part number. For our...

Keep active, do stuff, BUT... try to learn new things. Learning exercises your brain, keeps it elastic. Learnt how to knit, do cross words, be a serial killer

The amperage ramps up and down, like a sine wave. So the arc melts, cools a bit, melts, cools a bit..... With out "pulse" to get that "roll of dimes" look, you lift and drop the torch to vary the heat, with pulse it does it all automatically, you just drag the torch across the metal. Ya' want a...

Truck theft has been around a while... why do think the Teamsters are so powerful I know a guy with a truck tire service, it's regular thing to get your trailer stolen... for the wheels. alcoa wheels "were" over grand each, the tire another $400-700... x 12 on a trailer Tires and wheels have...

The tone of every post you have made of this broad subject says different

Yep, if the Palestinians would only submit to the genocide, there would be no reason for war. You're right, it's their OWN fault. When faced with the choices of: lie down and die or we'll kill you... I'd say the choice is obvious

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say there... but I'm pretty sure I disagree with the inference. Who remembers Mohammed Abu Al-Qumsan? His sad story made the news in August when he went to register the birth of his twin boys, only to return home home find his newborn twins, his wife and...
