^^^ Mine would definitely fail that. No windshield wiper, washer, defroster.

You know, that's an amazing looking bike, but I bet it disappears into an already crowded field of excellent performers. The sport bike market is so hyper-competitive, with breathtaking acceleration and handling beyond what any mortal human can fully exploit, that it just seems redundant to...

Yours is a valid point. I have never taken a bike for an inspection without them trying to pressure me into some repairs. I usually inspect the bike myself and do necessary repairs before going there. If they try to pull a fast one I tell them no, you can have my permanent business or you can...

Why not just go to a motorcycle shop?

I like the W800. The one thing I can say about it is it is very comfortable. It's true it is a jack of all trades, expert at none, but comfort is a big seller for me.

Paid 137.9 today, but noticed the scammer stations jacking the price to 147.9. Really dragging this riding season out to the end just to avoid higher fuel prices. Hopefully I will be able to go another two weeks safely.

I have a roll of it. Use it to make water pump gaskets, side cover gaskets etc. Beats getting screwed over by the parts guys charging $10. You can buy it by the foot at most parts stores.

They've been assembling engines in this country for 60+ years with gasketmakers that are commonly available, but nooo, it's just gotta be 518. Fanboi types here.

I like those old striped racing shirts they used to wear.

Well, they've removed capacity restrictions on bars etc., so I'm guessing if you have the covid vaccination passport it's going ahead. Problem is, I'm guessing it will be the most jam-packed Motorcycle Supershow in history. Probably going to go Saturday evening when the crowd has thinned out.

Not for car tires. I use this type for my motorcycles and I get perfect balancing, takes only minutes to do. I change my own MC tires to save time and the PITA of having to go to a shop, leave the bike or wheel there, then go back. You should re-balance your bike tires about half-way through...

I watched "Into The Wild" on Netflix. It was made in 2008, but I had never seen it, considered the plot corny. But I was impressed. It's also a true story that I vaguely remember getting brief coverage in the media. It underscores how the pied-piper of literature can lead people off a cliff...

Two more weeks left. I'm going out to start up the snowblower today, get 'er tuned and ready.

Get this and some balancing weights. You won't be sorry. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/202736998259?hash=item2f34111773:g:fA8AAOSwbPldl-hw

The kind of riding I like to do with my KTM 390 Adventure. I just can't see myself doing this with a 600lb+ bike without ending up in a wheelchair.

Feb. 24, 1976 Millions - between $2.7 million and $10 million - was taken from a Brink’s truck when a van carrying a .50-calibre anti-aircraft gun blocked the truck and forced the driver to open the doors outside a Royal Bank branch in Old Montreal. A Brink’s employee later confessed to be part...

Not the first heist like this in Montreal. They emptied Harley Davidson Montreal out of dozens of bikes many years ago. They wouldn't do it if they didn't have a destination in mind. Montreal is full of mob and MC clubs with worldwide ties. Home of some of the worlds most spectacular heists.

More damage is being done to the environment by massive traffic jams that cause unnecessary pollution every day. Efficiency is the solution.

LOL, I know. But he's really ridiculing the whole idea. Every time I see a promo for a 600lb ADV it features a pro rider throwing it around motocross trails like a 250lb bike, doing 15-foot jumps, blasting through the barren wastelands in an imaginary Dakar. I guess it's no different with a...
