    1-2 Day trip in portugal. lisbon or porto?

    Day or two good luck. If this is a riding trip then stay out of Lisbon, it's just another big city with big-city traffic, toll roads, and speed cameras. Inland of Porto is a way better choice. I didn't get that far north, but just look at the map. Stayed one night in Coimbra, next night in Serra...

    Every Thursday Group ride. Steels and finacial dr Mississauga

    I figured someone would miss that memo. In before the rain. Judging by the cloud bank to the north, leaving earlier was a good call.

    Every Thursday Group ride. Steels and finacial dr Mississauga

    Still could go either way. I'm good with meeting up a bit earlier if weather radar isn't a mess by then.

    Eye on the sky. Thunderstorms in the forecast. Orangeville is under tornado watch (even though it's blue sky now)

    These court decisions were made by juries and their outcomes are a matter of public record.

    Trump Guilty

    Echoes from the right-wing echo chamber. Conviction registered? Goal-posts moved.

    Yes, that particular Mazda paint is beautiful.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Those matte finishes are still clearcoated, it's just a different formulation that doesn't give a shiny finish. I'm not sure anyone does single-stage paint other than fleet white or fleet black for commercial vehicles. IMO flat or eggshell or semi-gloss is for walls, and it goes on with a roller.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Flat or matte finish is just another style, just like pastel colours of the 1950s were a style that came and went. Personally ... dislike. Looks like someone painted the vehicle with Tremclad. I've heard they're harder to keep clean, because the normal waxes and polishes can't be used. (well...

    Bike running lean (I think)

    No kit required for re-oiling the filter. Apply a few stripes of oil (any motor oil will do), squeeze the foam to distribute it uniformly and squeeze out any excess. How bad is this stumble? Is it just a mild delay before the power comes on (half a second or so), or does it fall flat on its...

    Bike running lean (I think)

    Symptom clarification ... If you smoothly roll the throttle all the way open (in higher gear so that the revs don't take off too quickly) it's OK, but if starting at the same RPM, if you whack the throttle open abruptly, there's a momentary bog followed by the engine taking up the load and...

    Yamaha R3 Cold Start Sound Okay?

    The long-term durability of the later-model Yamaha twins and triples - all of them - is of no concern.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    The concept of battery-swapping only looks nice until you try to do it. Every battery-swap station has to have on hand, multiple units of every conceivable battery configuration for every conceivable vehicle that could come in for a swap. It follows that this only works in practice if every...

    Deck vs Fire escape

    Yes, keyword LARGE beams. Not going to find much of that nowadays. New housing developments under construction are notorious for the whole thing going up in flames if a fire starts somewhere after framing is done but before the bricks and drywall have gone in.

    Yamaha R3 Cold Start Sound Okay?

    I'm not up to date with current pricing, but just as a point of reference, in 2018 I paid $3500 for a 2015 R3 with about 6600 km and gentle crash damage.

    Deck vs Fire escape

    Steel is only going to get like that if it reaches a temperature of something like 600 C and in a building-fire situation, that's only going to happen if it is completely engulfed for sufficient time (depending on thickness of the steel and whether insulation so-called "fireproofing" has been...
