Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end...

It was. Almost binned it sliding over to lean.

Brought it to TMP a couple of times. Got shagged in the corners by anything with a lean angle over 30 degrees lol.

Couple of other things. I almost left a main tent pole behind. Slid it off into the grass behind the tent to fold everything up and missed it on the final pack. It was only because I moved the bike up and decided to rinse the mud off the kickstand puck that I saw it when I walked over to the...

Went to PineHurst Lake Conservation near Cambridge last weekend. 2.5 hr ride for me. Place was empty so it was real quiet and I chose a site farthest away from others. Enjoyed the solitude and I'm going to do it again but start going farther out. I'd like to try Algonquin area eventually and...

OK. Just went motocamping for the first time, I'll tie that in.

650. Should I start a thread about it? Figured nobody GAF about them.

Only issue I ever had was needing a new snubber from too many hard launches. That took months to procure. Thirsty beast as well.

I had a VROD for 10 years. Purchased new in '14 for 22k. Loved the bike despite it shortcomings but nothing soured me more on Harley than the negative dealership experiences and twat Harley owners. Wanted to trade it in on a PanAm. Dealer offered me 9.5k, saying nobody wanted it and wouldn't...

Local bro has a cyber truck. Wrapped and all. I'd bet a paycheque he's got a restraining order or not allowed near schools.

Those solutions are beyond my knowledge, although I'm sure it's already been solved in Norway and China since they are pretty much the leaders in electrification initiatives. Looks like Sweden is going all-out now as well. Without the full story, it looks like someone in Nova Scotia didn't do...

You can always go with load sharing. No need for separate runs and breakers. Simpleswitch and Evolt as an example. Not cheap but it works if you're power-constrained at the panel.

I love the Buzz. Watched a ton of YT trip videos on it. I can totally see us in one when I retire. Dogs on the floor and gardening supplies in the back lol. Range isn't as much of an issue at that point. But even then who cares? I won't be in any rush.

My Ultium's good for 450 km, an Equinox 500+ km. That's more than my bladder nowadays so it's good enough for me. If you want to do Iron Butt-style runs, knock yourself out. Even when I had my 1200 km-range Jetta TDI, I had to stop periodically for food and bodily functions. So did the rest of...

Christ, do all KLR guys look that debonair? Just missing your pipe mate. Awesome bike though, congrats.
