Not only is it on their website, he literally made a short documentary-style video about this within the last month. This claim just keeps getting repeated again and again, but it comes directly out of left-leaning echo chambers on social media and claims from those parties. Meanwhile neither...

So we suck less? I really hate that way of apologetic pandering. We should aim for excellence rather than sucking less. We're not even close to excellence. Inefficient government, scandals, divisive rhetoric, political posturing, ethical breaches.... nah, we've got plenty to complain about...

I guess we have to start here. Socialism <> totalitarianism. Though they always go hand in hand, they're different in concept. Essentially, yes. They've outlawed their use in any setting and they intend to ask for us to turn them in. If they know we have them (gun registry) and you don't...

Amen to that. I grew up in a small Ontario town (Picton) and several of my childhood peers lived in families with no visible means of supporting their lives. At the time (for a long time), the scam was to work under the table quietly whenever possible and scam as many welfare IDs as possible...

I "sort of" met Max Wrist at the Dragon this spring. He just walked around, fully geared-up seeming confused and then left quickly when he had something to "chase" etc. on his camera. As far as I can tell, he did this repeatedly. I judged his pace on the Dragon itself at something like...

Social services are not socialism. Socialism does what socialism wants, including taking the means of production. Social services are generally agreed-upon needs that the public sees as worthwhile to fund. I say generally, since much of the time the public isn't consulted. Just because the...

You don't drive a Leaf by any chance, do you? Hey, while we're just talking politely, can I have the keys to your bike? Or, uh... your home? No? Well now... why not?

Get back to the track.

You know they'd make sure that you couldn't build a new house with their money and hold on to the one you already have. No, you're already rich! But then they take your money and build it for someone else. This may be why they really want to take our guns away. I wish I was even kidding.

The CPC's plan at least has some teeth. They're saying: "make it possible for builders to build in your municipality, because right now it's a cast-iron ***** to get anything built, you're in the way and you won't back down because NIMBY wins the day." It punishes them if they don't make it...

It always amazes me when I see "but he has no plan." That comes directly out of Liberal/NDP echo chambers. Not only is a preliminary (pre-election) plan published on their website, there's many public statements about the policies that the CPC would bring forth. While I wouldn't call myself...

The cooler air definitely offsets the power. Remember, air friction doesn't rise linearly, at about 200kph and up, it rises exponentially.

Mexico can be fun this time of year.

But are they, though? lol

As far as I can tell MSR is modulated on/off only for the Gen3. It'd be great to have 5 levels of it. I mean, I can live with it just fine, but ... that's one area of the bike - along with the new gearing - that makes me a little jealous of the 1390R. What doesn't is the rumor that it will...

You're not going to get more than about 5hp (everywhere, though) out of a tune, with a slip-on on a 3rd gen Super Duke, apparently. What you do get is better throttle response and an increased richness in throttle transitions which are a little lean. This is pretty common with many modern...

Big fan of the 5 engine back-torque settings... minor fan of the 5 wheelie control settings. No intention at all to update, the 1290R is already a bull in a china shop and a BT-Moto tune or preferably a universal tune (they're open-sourced and can be edited) will give me the power bump and a...

Probably the last ride of 2023. Some good quality riding despite the 10C temps and the sand on some of the roads (River Road East out of Tamworth in particular). The heated grips were great and I would probably have bailed on the ride without them. As always the bike worked fantastically...

Kelp stout. Huh. A bit like Oyster stout in character?
