Depending on payment method (i hope CC), I would pay the duty (no point challenging that one and you don't want the hassle of UPS no longer shipping to your address), document your refund request to the company, especially with the discrepancy with country of origin. Then do a charge back when...

Sorry, may not have been clear. I meant after Tims, go there, pick up a couple steaks and toss them into the tank bag and rip it home to the bbq. When they sell it by the case, well, not so suitable for motorcycle transport and its no longer just a single day's dinner.

Huh. That's right behind the Dundas & 403 Tims. There's an idea. Ride around Milton. Stop for a coffee, then 'take out'. Oh, looking at the in-store menu, looks to be all whole sale.

They sell trailer hitches for some bike types and bike specific trailers that lean with or have swiveling mounts. Probably much more expensive than you had in mind though.

It's ok you missed it. We all got put on the audit list after that one! Good to see everyone though!

This combined with designing a system without carriers putting your phone calls through a data miner makes it impossible without inadvertently blocking any legitimate calls. User habits are different regionally so without listening to your calls, there's no way to know on a brand new call...

If you don't mind me asking, why GPS and phone both? Google maps offline mode works pretty good these days. If you download the map locally, you don't need cell service for directions or routing. This works great as long as the path is recognized as a road.

I generally just use an SAE compatible battery tender and leave the lead on the bike permanently. Don't let the battery go dead and you wont have to 10a charge it! However, for jump start, the red, yellow and green tool brands have a jump starter now. Still, the Noco work better. Project...

Evotech performance also makes a mount. I don't remember which Ducati Scrambler you had but this is a low profile option. They make it for all sorts of mounting systems, not just quadlock but even Garmin and Tomtom. So pick your 'locking' method. You'll generally want it to be removable...

It's like you haven't seen a Saudi Prince's garage. Also, the sale of older bikes for cash helps the teams. While the factory Ducati team doesn't need the cash, others are probably more than happy to sell the old bikes for a non-insignificant amount of cash. I think the Lorenzo bike in the...

A man of excellent taste. He should be given a pardon for being such a connoisseur of fine motorcycles. Even see a Nicky Hayden tucked into the back right.

West end would be nice. Not saying I can't do Aurora though.

It's a bit far from me but thanks for the recommendation!

Any recommendations for a cobbler who would do motorcycle boots? In specific, I have two pairs of Alpinestars SMX6v1's that are perfectly good except for the heels (foot out sumo!) and rather than chucking the two pairs of otherwise perfectly fine boots in the trash. I'm sure the soles could...

Many laptops can just take USB C (specifically USB C-PD (power delivery)) and no longer require an AC charger. Most motorcycles are 12v power so it'd be DC to DC for many types of battery banks that support 12v charging. USB C-PD is up to 20v5a which is 100w, far exceeding a motorcycle's...
