What did you do in your garage today..?

Put the Hyper-lites on my Tenere. Had to remove a ton of stuff to get at the wires i needed to tap into. Only have 300km on it, but this bike is really impressive.
Don't they have a plug in kit for that?
I hate when I or others have to "tap into" wires.
 
Trapped a(nother) racoon. 4th this season -- this little one tore out a pot light from the soffit to gain access.

I think it's time to get back into the hat business.

I went to do that for the ones in my pool house last year, but the trap wasn't big enough.

I have the BIG trap. I got one out of our pool bar roof last year that was 35lbs.

My buddy is having the same problem with skunks and racoons. He picked up a air powered 22 this afternoon, Ill see how he does this weekend. - A 177 high velocity just hurts them, hopefully the 22 can do a full dispatch.

Gonna see how he does with his. Catch and release isn't working.

No Canadian air rifle is going to do anything to a raccoon not enough muscle velocity

BenMax .22 air, 850fps with an 18 grain pellet. Should do the trick!

Need a PAL for this rifle. Pfffft!
 
My 1yr old daughter loves exploring the garage so she supervised as I upgraded some parts on the snowmobile.

had a co2 .22 pellet gun. it would almost go through 3/4 plywood with a fresh cartridge. no pal req'd.

please don't kill rocky !! keep using a trap!! every living thing is important.. teach our children well. but then, maybe if you needed a winter hat..

worked well on grouse, never tried it on wabbits - too iffy. racoons are pretty tough.

Im ok with trap and release, what I don’t like is the rules. You can dispatch problem critters or release them no further than 1km from where they were trapped.

One a raccoon solves opening a soffit, it goes on their permanent resume, so releasing them back into urban areas impacts another homeowner.

It is a dilemma.

Friends were invaded by raccoons. Every few days, the animal control company would be at the next house down the street. That municipality was very pro-animal. Install one-way door for x days, then seal and reinforce area. Trash bandit moves next door and repeats the cycle. Over and over and over. The one raccoon was probably good for 10K to the animal control company.
 
I'm putting this Seat Concepts cover on my KTM, which has the most uncomfortable seat I have ever owned on a motorcycle.

Crazy...you can shoot em dead but can't trap and release them further away than 1 km? Who comes up with this stuff?

Raccoon huggers I guess. They say relocation is very stressful, particularly for city raccoons who have become dependent on subsidized food and housing.
