    Check your RBC Visa's

    Good on you to refuse them permission to store your CC info. There's no reason that a merchant needs to store your full card number. If they insist it is for a recurring payments (e.g. subscriptions, monthly charge), then they only need the full PAN and CVV on the first transaction when it's...

    Check your RBC Visa's

    this ----vvvv The card data is stolen, stored for some time, then interleaved with other stolen data to hide its origins, and finally blocked and sold. It could be many months between when the data is stolen and when it gets fraudulently used. Add to that the time it takes for the issuing...

    First cars

    First car was a 1963 Triumph TR4A. Wish I still had that car but I loaned it to my friend at the time and he crashed it. Such a fun car to drive.

    Warning: vinsuperinfo.com is an online scam targeting vehicle sellers

    I hope you didn't actually give them your Paypal credentials!! If what you mean is that you paid using Paypal, then lodge a dispute with Paypal for the $25. Include any references you may have found as to the scamming nature of this website. Paypal is very good at supporting buyers so there...

    Unable to open site without a VPN?

    The target site might be using geo-location to limit the clients who are allowed to connect to those in a specific country or region. This is common for streaming services where you are only entitled to view videos if you are located in a specific country (eg. BBC, PBS, etc.). The VPN...

    Got a UK insurance quote out of curiosity...

    My experience was over a decade ago and related to Norway and not GB, but I was required to retake motorcycle training as my Ontario license "M" designation wasn't recognised. The training course was intense. They really drilled you on technique and road rules; no fooling around. Emergency...

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    I have a final drive for a '85 K100-2V available. PM me for info. The suggestion to diagnose and repair the problem is sound advice. Are you positive it's not spline related?

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    I don't think he is going to cafe it. He's going to restore it. Good thing as I saw it today and it's not horrible but needs attention.

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    FYI, my buddy bought the blue K75 today. Don't think I am at liberty to reveal the price but it was fair.

    Riding during stay at home order.

    I think it more likely that police would stop a group ride than an individual out for a leisure ride. The spirit of the order is to limit and prevent contact between people that provides the opportunity for transmission of COVID-19. There is more probability that 2 or more riders in a group...

    Eye Lens Replacement

    That was the cost for my eyes but then it just occurs to me that I had the laser work for the cataract so you can drop about $1500 - $2000 from that $6K price. It would probably be closer to $4K-$4.5K for both if you don't have cataracts.

    Eye Lens Replacement

    I just had that surgery on my left eye. I had a cataract and the lens was replaced. The doctor performs a battery of tests on the eye with sophisticated equipment to design the perfect lens. There are several lens options to choose from : - simple mono-focal lens covered by OHIP. This option...

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    The page is from the BMW manual for the K175/K100 which is available online. The image quality is not the best. I scanned the manual I have and replaced the original picture with (hopefully) a better quality one.

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    See post #81 by Greyghost to get access to the terminals for charging - +ve will get exposed when the left battery cover is removed. -ve will be on the gear box by the left foot peg. You can attach the charging cables to those points. To remove the battery, refer to the BMW procedure in the...

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    +1. If the owner was not conscientious enough to prepare the bikes for long-term storage, there are probably other neglected items on the bike that will require work and money to fix. The black bike has a Pichler fairing which the Interwebs says traps the engine heat and is very hot to ride in...

    BMW K75. Worth it?

    The long time out of service for the K-bikes is not a concern if the bikes were properly prepared for storage. As mentioned, look in the tank for old gas as it most likely will cause deterioration of the fuel pump anti-vibration damper (turn it into sticky goo) and could attract moisture that...
