    Ugliest bike thread

    I like the look of the whole bike. Looks rugged and tough... looks can be deceiving of course, interested to see actual specs and peoples reviews when they start hitting the road. Takes a bit to fall for the design, but I seem to like the so called ugly bikes. Love my BMW and its boxer engine...

    building a PC geek talk...

    I received my WD PCIe M.2 gotta love amazon, ordered yesterday got it this morning. Anyways it is crazy how small and yet how much storage this thing holds. Will be picking up some RAM next week as well as a CPU cooler. I have a thermal pad I am waiting for, this is to be used instead of thermal...

    I know my mother board has some heat sink for these drives, think I would go without it if I didn’t have it, never needed extra cooling for traditional SSD drives

    I think I will go with the WD blue one WD Blue 3D NAND 2TB PC SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s M.2 2280 Solid State Drive - WDS200T2B0B: Amazon.ca: Gateway I am not that concerned with speed, I mean as long as it is as fast as a regular SSD I am fine. Currently I have an SSD in my PC and it boots up in 5...

    I have a decent mother board, good cpu and good gpu. Was just curious about this new ssd drive. Going to look for an NVMe drive that is a reasonable price for 1T. As much as I do ‘t need the space it would be nice to have it all on one drive and even better when it is directly mounted on the...

    There is not question for shaft or chain... it is shaft all the way. I don't think I would ever buy a bike with a chain again, love the shaft drive.

    I don't use the PC for anything serious so never bother with backups because it is just basically a few games and all that data is in the cloud. I can see only really using around 300 - 400 gigs of space so the PCIe drive at 1TB would be relatively empty. I am wondering about the quality of the...

    I am building a new PC from scratch. I have never done it this way, I have always upgraded a previously built PC. Upgrades I have done are CPU, GPU and PSU. So this is my first crack at everything from the motherboard down to the RAM. What I currently have: case - Canada Computers &...

    Scottish bike rentals

    From the site I posted these are the conditions I can find that might be what you are after: Unless agreed beforehand, hirers must be between 25 and 75 years old. Under certain circumstances we can ask the insurers to be flexible about these limitations – please enquire. To ride a motorcycle up...

    Scottish bike rentals

    I would recommend exploring some of England and Wales then. You can head up the west coast into Wales, some breathtaking scenery there and amazing roads. You could go all the way up to the northern tip of Scotland and down from there to Edinburgh, don't think you would be disappointed.

    Scottish bike rentals

    I was looking at prices last year and came across this website. Motorcycle hire - Woking, Surrey, near London UK | RoadTrip They had the best prices I had seen and a wide variety of brands and models. Now it is not in Scotland, not even close, but you could do it in a day or a leisurely 2 day...

    TV shows currently watching

    I remember liking it when I watched it. Nothing spectacular but enjoyable. Another story cut off with no conclusion if I remember correctly. I try and steer clear of these shows now as I hate unfinished stories.

    TV shows currently watching

    Did they get away from all the relationship drama happening? I have trouble believing there will be love triangle issues when you are on a planet you have never been before with things that are trying to kill you. Just seems like dating would not be a main concern in the moment.

    TV shows currently watching

    I watched the first season and loved the premise but the whole thing is just teen angst and drama. So much self destruction made it completely unbelievable for me in the world they created. Again great idea, just thought it was poorly written.

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    Went and saw Once upon a time in Hollywood last night. It was a slow burn but worth it in the end. Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio did fantastic work.

    What ruined star trek?

    I definitely agree that good sci-fi is sci-philosophy. When you focus all your attention on all the tech you lose the story. Not sure if I agree with TNG, though it has been years since I watched it. Can't comment on TOS, only watched a few episodes and nothing left me hungry for more. DS9...

    What ruined star trek?

    I enjoyed Star Trek when I was younger. I have watched The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager. I thought Deep Space Nine was the most interesting in terms of story and dealing with that whole situation going on there. All in all though I do not find it to be great Sci-Fi. They always...

    TV shows currently watching

    I watched the whole season and agree. I liked the concept but they really failed in execution. First contact and possibly the fate of the Earth is on the line and the people they send seem incredibly unstable emotionally. The first hiccup and they rise up in mutiny. The whole dress how you feel...

    Killer on a sportbike - anyone know the bike & rider?

    They obviously forgot to hit the "enhance" button.

    Ridiculously overpriced helmets thread

    prices are crazy considering it is all simply for design. My Schuberth C3 Pro was expensive, especially when adding the SRC comm kit. I did not mind the price because of what I was getting for it. To pay that kind of money simply because it is on trend with certain demographic is crazy. They...
