I think there is a sweet spot for small displacement machines that are fun and insurance friendly. Seeing and hearing Zach on the Kawi 400 that is only the twin cyl powertrain makes me reconsider what to keep in the garage. I come to my senses pretty quickly. Now if Triumph came out with a...

I believe is the same for motorcycle as it is for motor vehicle. I could be wrong. In fact, more than likely I am. https://www.canadianrodder.com/features/fyi/registering.htm

These are moments when I take pride in the riders community. Congratulations and looking forward to posts about your journey and enthusiasm. Whatever inspires you to get your M1 and pursue your M2 is great. No matter what you ride, it’s gonna be better than driving a cage anyway. Unless...

There are a few MINI members of the club and even some that have MX-5/Miata and some that just drive their grocery getters. Heck, the missus and I have a classic bug we plan to bring out on a few events. Point is to have fun and enjoy the ride. The better half is easier on the eyes and more...

FYI. https://careers.cpr.ca/job/Toronto-Train-Conductor-ON/566261417/ edit- I did go to their job fair in Ajax and it was very informative. It’s a union job and you work all hours, holidays through the year. It’s outside in all weather and all temperatures. Can‘t consume the devil’s...

Exactly why I love Brit Cars. They are a cheap hobby and can be enjoyed. Parts are easy to find and easy to work on. The electrics are easy enough to manage now. Electronic ignition helps. Only issue is the same for everyone. Chinese quality aftermarket parts look good but, might not work...

Sweet! If you are ever in the Niagara area, reach out. My wife and I are presidents of the Niagara British Car Club. niagarabritishcarclub.org Love the front clip of Spitfires. Fun on the back roads too. I‘m on the hunt for a TR6. A few members are getting to a certain age and might...

Good friend of mine makes trailers for reasonable prices. Made in Canada, family business doing it for years and they ride too. Have a look. ps. They can tell you the differences between a cheap trailer and what they do and even see their shop. Give them a call and speak to Steve or Barb or...

So many factors for a first bike and getting out on the road to ride. From young to old, no experience to country machines with no plates and sliding around on dirt. Another factor is what is the appeal and inspiration? The smiles from a scooter rental on vacation? Flipping through...

The Way I heard It - Mike Rowe Smartless - Bateman, Hayes, Arnett WTF - Marc Maron

College educated as electrical technician but, ended up in insurance and then finance. Lets just say I didn know what I wanted to do and during college realized I wasn’t one for manual labour. At least at that point in life. So entry level filing clerk at an insurance company paid better...

Not to derail the thread as it’s a good one. I’ve been enjoying some Kentucky bourbon and Irish Whiskey lately. Notable mentions to Elijah Craig for a smooth and easy finish. Just the regular, the barrel proof is a nice treat but, their regular bottle is always stocked at home now. Roe &...

Carburetor…….jetting……..is wizards work now. Lol.

Most of my friends are bilingual. I’m the lone anglo. From a career standpoint, I would say Spanish for US market business is helpful and here in Canada, French. It is my understanding, French is easier pick up if you already know Spanish and vice versa. Some of my Italian friends...

If going with a dealer and new, they will likely let you store the bike until you are ready to ride it home. They plate it, you insure it and in April, ride it home.

I‘m an audio book fella depending on the length of drive/ride. Enjoyed this. As well as this Since Dave’s book is titled The Storyteller, it’s excellent as an audio book since you hear Dave actually telling you the stories in the book. My wife isn’t much of a Nirvana or Foo Fighters...

Even Tesla website used stock is priced higher than new.

My best friend bought a Buick Grand National and got to drive it. It was loaded and had moon roof instead of the T-top. Great car in a straight line and cruising along the highway. Definitely not a sports car. 😀.

Just did an ownership change and it’s been the same every time at different service ontario and different employees. As long as you have the safety, you can just verbally provide the insurance information. I always have the liability slip handy but, never had to produce it. Once the...
