****. I really like you, Brian P. But your grasp on politics and economics, not so much. Let's agree to eat burgers at the CROT and leave politics behind. As for Conservative politics, PP has it right: how are you going to buy an EV when you're $2000 or more poorer every year, and just as...

I don't see anyone else doing it unless you're going to tell me about Singh doing tiktok cooking videos.

Thoughts A) I don't see how he can be worse than JT which is a wrecking ball to our freedoms and our economy B) I don't trust any politician, however C) At least Poilevre answers a @#$& question now and then D) JT's cabinet is arguably worse than he is himself, and he seems to have no...

Note that it says to "any victim." This could be easily hundreds of "victims" if the complaint is made on a public social media platform, and there is no compulsion to identify the complainant/s to the citizen nor do they have to justify any harms done to them by the accused. It also opens up...

Yet another lawyer's take. I haven't listened to all of it, and probably won't as I feel I'm more than up on this.

Except that I'm not back-peddling at all. And you didn't prove any of the basics wrong. You saying it doesn't make it true, and it isn't. I've been out spending time with friends, family and riding. I just sat down after a whole day of enjoying myself. Sorry, not sorry. And yet you know...

Probably today for me.

Bike of last resort for me... they're heavy for offroad use and that's where I'll be using whatever I end up with. I sure like the maintenance on them, though... keep the oil topped up, beat on it until you wear yourself out.

I almost made an impulse buy on a KTM 500 EXC with a separate set of road wheels. But I really don't need another street bike, I put maybe 5K a year on the one I have (and I downsized from two last year for that reason).

I've been trying to find a 450-class trail / offroad bike that isn't a motocross bike. Don't want the maintenance and I'd like a kickstand, thanks. Or a 250-class two stroke of course.

Uh, duh. This doesn't need to be said. Obviously there's going to be court involved. EDIT: but fines can be levied without court, and you do not have the right to meet your accuser in either case. They can charge you with it, and the sentence is up to and including life. Are you SERIOUSLY...

Except that it's not. It says right in the bill that fines and imprisonment right up to life in prison are possible for an offense "motivated by hatred." Or are we not to believe their own words? Are you saying that we should just not worry about it, because no reasonable judge would do...

Nah, you claim I don't have sources, I named two already. I'm not your librarian, and you're on the wrong side of logic and history here. You haven't pointed out a single thing that's wrong and we both know why.

The only nonsense here is you claiming that it's nonsense. The bill is clear and I've now heard three different lawyers walk through the bill. It is exactly as I described it. I've also read the take of Peter Menzies and Michael Geist, among others. You saying it's not means nothing: quote...

Defending this bill not only makes a person desperately stupid, but also a terrible person. This has nothing to do with the right wing and everything to do with pre-crime and monetised incentives to turn your fellow man in for crimes of free speech.

Why are people not going apeshit over this bill?

Some people are feeding back that the 1390 is so powerful that it can be a little boring. Like the motorcycle is daunted by nothing, with the newly expanded rev range etc., it's actually too capable. I don't see that as a barrier myself... Got to admit, the M1000R is a cool super hooligan...

Horsepower is very useful in racing (and general performance). Yes it's a weird math function but looking at a graph of horsepower output, one can determine both where the power output falls off enough to shift optimally and where to gear the final drive for the purpose of the vehicle -...

I bought a bike this year that has more than enough of both, and honestly that's all I really care about. A little excess is just enough. OK OK yes a lot of people don't understand the two or how they relate. The primary thing to remember is that horsepower isn't a thing, it's an algorithmic...
