    List top naked bikes for me!

    BMW K1300R. I've been riding a K1200R for the last 3 years and love this bike so much that I've kept it longer than any other I've owned (and plan on keeping it!). I only wish BMW sold the K1300R in the US.

    question for the ski and snowbord ppl

    Most of the skiing/boarding along the west coast is similar. We get stuff like that in California as well - helicopter not required (the lifts will take you to the top, and then you just hike/ski to the more remote areas). Last year was a great year for fresh powder - it snowed a ton. I think...

    Money = Success? Moved from Pannon Thread

    Air is necessary but not sufficient for life - you'll die without it, but just because you can breathe doesn't guarantee that you will live, either. Similarly, money is necessary but not sufficient for happiness (at least in this world). How much money is necessary will vary from person to person.

    Do I get to keep my GM2 if I move to the United States?

    You can have a Canadian and a NY license at the same time. You don't need to be a citizen to get a license, only a resident. Check with the NY DMV to determine what you'll need to do to keep your motorcycle license. In California, because my Ontario license was from 'out of the country', I...

    60hz vs. 120hz

    Personally, I prefer 60Hz because it's what I'm used to. I like my telecine judder just the way it is :) For those of you who feel similarly, you can almost always disable the 120Hz oversampling.

    Giving Blood

    Yep - my ex was involved with a lawsuit against Canadian Blood Services, and this was/is the policy. Note that the prostitutes themselves cannot give blood (taking money or drugs for sex), but having sex with a prostitute only results in a temporary deferral.It's also on their website, although...

    Giving Blood

    This is exactly the contradiction with Canadian Blood Services screening policy - it's not based on a true assessment of risk. Consider the following: If you are a man and have had sex with another man only ONCE at any time since 1977, you are banned for life from giving blood; however, if you...

    Im buying a truck..

    Most pickups don't have much weight in the rear when unloaded, so you'll definitely need a good set of snow tires and some ballast (sand bags, bricks, or even snow) in the bed if you aren't going to get 4WD. If fuel efficiency is a big concern, Chevy does make a Silverado hybrid that you may...

    Im buying a truck..

    Complete overkill for what you are planning, but I have a 2007 Ford Super Duty (F350, single rear wheel, crew cab, 6.75ft short bed, diesel, 4x4). Super comfortable for both driver and passengers, and you can pretty much haul and/or tow anything (also comes with an integrated brake controller...

    damn we need lane splitting

    Legally, the van was at fault - you're not allowed to cross the double yellow. According to the video notes, the rider got "a nice settlement".

    damn we need lane splitting

    Most cagers are usually very considerate over here in California with respect to lane sharing/splitting (which is surprising, given how poorly most people drive over here). I lane split on the way to work today, and I lane split/filter pretty much every time I ride :D

    How to save money in 2011

    I much prefer using credit cards to buy things, because I don't have to keep the paper receipts - the credit card company/bank will do it for me electronically. My bf and I use mint.com to keep track of our spending. If you can get over the fact that you have to give it all of your account(s)...

    What to do when you want to fight your ticket in court (new)

    It depends on the court office...three weeks is probably too late. You could ask for an adjournment to get disclosure, or hope for the best and try to ask for an adjournment on the day of your court date. Yeah sorry, the updates in red is for future updates that I haven't gotten around to.
