I had to see at least the first few posts on this but man nothing beats a thread in 1 of the other motorcycle forums where the guy's post header is "I went down on a watermelon" ... you can imagine where that went. 🤣🤣

I was up in Creemore 2 weekends ago and on the way out saw the BMW Motorrad truck on a side street ... was thinking of an R18 Classic until I sat on 1 at a dealership before then ... heavy pig - no thanks.

You can always disconnect it too as the bike runs fine with just a slip-on (how my Scrambler was set up).

Is that a deal or what? I bet $4k takes it.

Yeah the South end is still crap! Anyone ever done 38? ... not far from the top of Southwood where Torrance is ..

^ sounds very similar to when i had my 2019.

If you look at the inside of the Grip Puppies they actually have a clear coating on them so it's not the same foam-type of surface as you have on the outside but I hear ya ... I also had a heck of a time putting them on with soap & water to the point I thought I'd rip them and then said "ok it's...

The Grip Puppies aren't grips guys ... they go OVER your grips and are meant to not be as permanent as grips. I guess hair spray can't hurt but they go on tight (as attested to by Sunday Rider, and me too) and I've never had an issue with them moving one bit without anything to make them stick.

I've put a few of these over the years and WD40 is your friend. Spray the inside and slide them on. Same when taking them off - get a long screwdriver in and spray inside with those red long tips on the WD40 can. The WD40 eventually dries off and you're good. Before buying the Grip Puppies...

You going soft? ;) Seriously though, you might get more takers if you got more "reasonable" on your trips ... not everyone has the iron-butt drive you have (respect there) or wants to risk getting too tired near the end of a sunrise-to-sunset ride, etc..

Old oil can still be dropped off at the recycling ctr's in Peel.

Had Pirelli Mt-60S's on the Duc Scrambler (stock tires) and those are a great tire for mild off-roading (as well as on-road).

Yeah the days of actually giving a description of someone that committed a crime are long gone - guess the criminals got all butt-hurt. I heard something on AM 680 this morning about a stabbing on a bus platform and here's the description you get: "they are looking for a male and female...

Seems the punishment isn't severe enough ... are our jails just over filled so they pick & choose the worst of the worst to actually do some time?

... the search for that elusive sane Latina continues ...

I've never heard of the soapy water thing ... aren't you just supposed to apply it a full strength?

Have you tried RainX for plastic? Now sure how long it'll last but if you anticipate rain, you can always buff some on before heading out.

That $2k quote on CTV was indeed for a manual up/down bollard with a lock key.

Saw a clip on CTV News last night about bollards. They were interviewing a young guy about 24 y.o. from "Bollard Boys" ... he was saying it was about $2k to install. Not sure I'd trust those guys but I could be wrong.

What's to keep that TRX from mowing down the bollards? Somehow I suspect it'd be easier than plowing those 2 blocked vehicles enough to have a get-away.
