You need to get out later to really see the effect. That Benjamin Road? I have been really happy with the stock LED headlights on my GS, best lights I have ever had but always want more when nighttime comes. Was thinking of adding the D4's or the D7's for maximum brightness.

those insurance prices are crazy. I remember paying $450 a year just liability for my 2nd bike when I was 17 and that was for an Goldwing 1100. My bikes did not even cost that much back in the day, seems crazy to pay more on insurance then the bike is worth.

I had the same reservations having some bad experiences and not shopping wanting to shop at Twisted Throttle anymore. Though only thing I will buy from them is the Denali lights and I will get it through some twisted throttle dealer to avoid more duty charges even though I ordered from a...

What are you nervous about with the hwy portion of the test? The speed? Being around cars at that speed? When I did my M2 exit years ago I failed the first time around. I do blame it on the person watching... or not watching me ride. They had me get on the highway in Kitchener, I accelerated to...

+1 on Old Forge. Great town, lots of options for hotels/motels and also a great campground if you are tenting Old Forge Camping Resort: Adirondack Vacation Camping, NY, Cabins, Cottages, RV, Tent Sites Prices for the camp ground were more then reasonable and has great facilities. Just a minute...

Not sure what type of service electric bikes need but where do you take that if you need service or something is just not right? Harley has the best support network envied by all manufacturers I am sure. Price is still way to high for something that is really only for around town riding or...

It was actually an R1200 RT not an ST. Nice bike though it made me appreciate my GS even more when I picked it up again yesterday. The LC engines are much more refined.

I just dropped my bike off for service yesterday and got a loaner bike. They gave me a 2010 R1200 ST with 178,000 KM's. Engine feels just as good as my old '10 GSA with far less KM then that. A few years is not going to have you run your bike into the ground.

is 50% recommended? Seems a bit high.

If they are dual intensity they will have 2 modes, one for day time running lights at reduced power and then one for full power spot lights. Should be able to run it through so when you hit your high beams the Denali's go full blast with it.

I am in the camp that you should be comfortable riding any road in Canada. If you are not, and your M2 is still valid what is the rush? The only benefit of the M license is you can have a beer and ride. Get comfortable on the bike, get comfortable on the road. If you are scared that will most...

Sure it works some of the time, maybe the majority, just wondering if all the effort is worth it when you have insurance. If someone stole my bike I would probably feel better getting a new one rather then the stolen one back after them doing who knows what to it.

You are going to hide a cell phone on your bike for tracking? What if someone just removes the phone? Takes thieves 2 minutes to pick up a bike and put it in the back of a van. Personally I am content with theft insurance. I have a BMW alarm that came with the bike and use it but have never...

I go with whatever is fastest, and in most cases it is self check out. I get in and out while others are waiting in line. I am assuming many people still find self check out confusing and intimidating.

I stayed in a place called Boone a few years ago. Was just off the BRP, nice town, plenty of options for restaurants, shopping, whatever.

I use mine primarily for music and turning on and off the lights. I really like the stereo setup with the new echo plus and the echo sub. I am no audiophile but it is a very clean sound, no distortion at any volume.

My first echo was the original dot and I quickly returned it. Sound was horrible, though that was to be expected from such a small device. I was going to plug into an external speaker but it did not work exactly as I had hoped. I did pick up the new echo dot around Christmas and like you said...

A higher minimum wage kills jobs. https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/minimum-wage-hikes-kill-millions-of-jobs/ Sure it would be nice if everyone could earn good money but the reality is some jobs are just not worth it. If companies are forced to pay more for wages where do you think...

Will give that a go and let you know how it works. If you do not hear from me you can be sure they are listening and I am in either at the bottom of a river or in some super secret highly illegal yet government funded prison.

Unless you plan on avoiding computers with a microphone in them and any smart phone you really can't get away from always listening devices. Some friends and I had talked a bit about Alexa listening and then finding ads that have never been searched for before. I thought I would give it a try...
