Cars, motorcycles, cnc machines, a ton of stuff is done this way. In house is the design, assembly and big stuff (chasis/engine), the rest is outsourced. Could you imagine if a car company made it's own everything down to headlight bulbs and wiper blades? Division of labour expanded.

Get a decent track/race prepped R3. Then if you decide to race you'll have a decent chance (bike wise) in lightweight classes. Anything slower than an R3 will get you nowhere and the next step up, the ninja 400, is considerably more expensive.

Funny, doesn't look like any Italian soccer coach that I've ever seen before.

Williams also lost a car a few years ago from a manhole cover that wasn't welded down.

Hmm, this seems to be the point at which envy begins and our friendship ends. Dante doesn't like you much right now either. 🤣

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Hoods must have either crumple zone space between the hood and the engine, or have poppers that pop the hood up at the hinges so that when a pedestrian is hit, they don't contact the engine. A good friend of mine has been a car designer for years. That's how he explained it to me (or that's...

In my opinion it isn't the engines that have sterilized cars, it's the lack of manual transmissions, and the bloat due to safety measures. Pedestrian friendly hoods, more airbags than radio presets, and the limitless lengths of wire for everything add a ton of weight. I understand the...

It's just a regular tire machine to mount motorcycle tires. Balancing is a different story.

The emergency roadside towing is just that, for emergencies on currently registered vehicles. So I'm not surprised they didn't tow you. That said, they shouldn't use up one of your tows if you didn't use up one of your tows. Renting a motorcycle trailer is your least expensive option assuming...

Was Bogie having a track day this weekend? Someone there surely is setup to dis/mount tires.

I wish I could unwatch that.

They have douche vests to keep them safe.

A few years ago when Michigan repealed it's helmet laws a study by Michigan's DOT came out with helmet statistics. In the end, helmet use makes virtually no difference. There were a few more dead people, a few less crippled people, but on the whole, there was no correlation indicating helmets...

At least he took the tire warmers off.

Clothing life cycle Nice t-shirt -> work t-shirt -> garage work t-shirt -> rag -> garbage

Seems counter productive. Drive up close so you can read a sign that says stay back.

Or put a reminder in your phones calendar that you need to renew. Or just sign up on the website to send you a reminder.

I just renewed a few weeks ago and motorcycles are most definitely not exempt. I agree with Jampy, head over to Service Ontario.

When you're too stupid to improvise and need a specific tool for everything you do. Not to mention, going to work, to buy tools, so you can work. Better off sitting at home rather than have a lifetime finance agreement with Snap-on.
