that's an interesting comment to unpack. Do you think there is only room for one motorsport based docu-series, or that they should have co-ordinated release dates for season 1?

the only monster ducati made with a 1500cc engine and so obviously worth the asking price.

what were the early issues?

think i'll go with something like an ABBA skylift if i were to follow through with a lift. Thanks.

very helpful, thank you. Was hoping for a storage/wrenching solution and i'm not sure i can make this work without modifications. edit: Ignoring the bracing problem (something i've solved with my current dolly solution, I may be able to back the ass-end into the corner and then swing the front...

does the flappy "tail" un-bolt? If so, what is the platform length with the tail removed. I'm in a small garage and would like to slide the lift, with bike on it, into a 7ft long space for winter storage.

The insurance came off of my street triple last month. With a little one at home, the time and the enjoyment levels were not there for street riding. I think I put <500 km since COVID began, before that i would commute and take long trips with friends. The money I save on insurance goes to track...

I used a...

Does TMP have restrictions on group sizes? Can imagine it being crowded running on weekends and close to the city.

Were you aware of the revised contours of the neck hole? They made the RF1400 with minimal wind-noise in mind, several videos state that it is a PITA to take off, but recommend you pull outwards on the straps to help your noggin get out with ears intact. Want a helmet to slip on and off? You...

posting a ducati here is cheating. there is likely a delirious sport classic buyer out there for him/her.

have you been tracking comparables on kijiji? That would be your best indicator for what is being listed and sold.

IIRC you do not need to wait the 60 days between the written test and the course. You will receive a certificate of completion at the course. You will want to ensure 60 days have transpired between written test and your submission of the certificate to MTO to formalize your M1 exit. This was my...
