Still have time to clean it up. Kill the rust, a fresh coat of paint and protect it. Might as well keep the bucket from rusting out if its still working good.

Used C7 Z06’s for sale are all silly priced right now. Near the $100k mark is just too much for an 8yr old Vette.

Ken will usually say $1,000. Sometimes it ends up to $800 and if he finds something else in there it could go over the $1,000. In that $1k will often be a new air filter and if the one in there is pretty clean he'll blow it out and reuse it which will knock $75ish off the bill, so stuff like...

Can't tell if you're serious or it's sarcasm. I can't picture the supercharged 6.2L (650HP) to feel lethargic even just lumping around. Been going down the Corvette wormhole recently and like much about the C7 Z06. I've watched enough Youtube vids that I'm surprised my wife hasn't asked if I'm...

Think of it like a line of credit where you don't actually start paying for it until you actually use it. Spoon-feed the builder from it at stages in the build. Those stages need to be inspected by the bank to show it's actually at that stage. Make the bank pay for those inspections and specify...

Indeed. You have to look big picture at Tesla and not just at car stuff. Energy storage is a huge reason their stock has bounced back and that's just one thing. Just saying. I'm not for/against Tesla but I am "for" making money on their stock.

There was often a Rune at the old Haugens bike night. That's only 1 of 2 that I've seen in the wild. They pop up for sale in my Marketplace feed from time to time so they're out there.

Not just Polaris as BRP and every other "Toy" manufacturer is there as well. BRP and Polaris though also have sleds as part of their lineup and with last winter's poor conditions it's just another stress on sales. I'll admit this might be my last winter on sleds as well if we don't get much snow.

I love the styling on those Toyota's. Looks better than the new ones in my opinion.

Ducati and BMW went through similar reliability issues and they came through it. I think KTM's quality control needs work as does the way they deal with problems when brought to many of their service departments. We all know there's some crap service departments out there regardless of the brand...

Transmission fluid change in the family hauler. Honda’s directions are annoying so I simplified it (not recommended if someone else may have serviced the transmission though as they may have altered oil amount). Drained it, measured what came out, put the same amount of new fluid back in being...

With my 20S at highway speeds and earplugs (Earpeace ones, medium inserts) listening to the radio is just loud enough but streaming Spotify/Amazon/Sirius it’s not loud enough. Volume on the phone is all the way up. Not sure if upgrading the speakers to the bigger ones will fix that. I have...

I put the liner in my coat, rolled the bike out of the garage and went nope nope nope don’t need the liner, bike says it 15c and it’s feels sunny and warm. Tossed the liner aside and left and bike quickly said “fooled ya, just 12c old boy”. It was 17c by the time I hit Bancroft but the temp...

Beautiful day out there today. I planned it so I wasn’t looking into the sun on my way home so I did dirt on the way up and twisties on the return. About 500km in total (I waited until about 11am to leave to warm up as it was 0c when I checked the tire pressures during breakfast. Some proper...

I’m a ways away but pretty sure my neighbour has those colour bricks you need and he’s giving them away. I needed the lighter ones to fill in a doorway at the in-laws but these were free and the spot wasn’t really visible. He has them leftover from building a garage years ago.

My first jump was a GTAM group ride/jump day. Get enough people here together and another could be planned for next year. It’s easier just to jump tandem on your first. You won’t notice the other person back there and they help scoot you through the open door when it’s time which can be...

My spouse would respond to that with a "No, sadly he does not".

What was her name? (or his)

Those cars do nothing for me. Plus not available in a convertible like the wife wants. I think I dislike them because 1. they're rather underpowered and 2. the typical 20-something's that drive them (I'm old). Nah that's just Child's Play. I spent 2hrs reading up on the pros/cons of the Dodge...

Yup I'll be out on Thursday. 15c and sunny.
