For street riding, I just use the CE-rated pads inside the pants. I have upgraded some of the older foam pads to D3O armor. For off-roading, I have Leatt dual-axis hard knee armor under my pants. I prefer straps behind the knee because the solid bands tend to bunch up and they also get hot...

There is a small grace period between payment date and settlement date. The banks and credit cards have accounted for the delay between the two. I've often made a payment a day or two after the due date and never been charged interest. If you do make a payment on or before the date and you...

To be fair, they do float you funds interest-free for up to 30 days, while the charges sit on your credit card. As for the lag in accounting, credit card companies are a separate organization from the banks. Even though you may hold a Royal Bank Visa, it's still two companies in collaboration...

I used them last summer. Pricey, but very professional. All logistics and communications were handled with 100% professionalism. The bikes were handled and loaded with care and respect. Would totally use them again. Being a larger company, they have regular runs across the country and into...

That totally sucks. :( At least post some pix of the wheels when they're mounted up! This deep into winter, I'm desperate for some motorcycle content.

+1 Were the fees really duty or UPS brokerage fees? IIRC, duty generally has to be paid before delivery. If it was really duty and Canadian sales taxes were also charged at the time of order, then you've been double-charged taxes. At least you've got a paper trail to try to get a refund on...

Does the successor count? 999->1098 R1200GS->R1250GS Wife: R1200ST->R1250RS (mistake)

I don't play a lawyer on TV. Heck, I didn't even stay at a Holiday Express Inn last night. But if you think you have an airtight defense against a prosecutor in a court of law, then booby-trap away! 🤟☠️👍

Beautiful bike! Ride safe and have fun!

Glad that one worked out for you. I fell for this one: I like the band. 🤟 Did not like their beer. 🤢

Just to close the loop on this, just ordered a Lenovo Legion 5: AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 (2.00 GHz up to 5.00 GHz) 32GB DDR5-5600MT/s 2TB SSD M.2 2242 PCIe Gen4 TLC GeForce RTX5070 8GB GDDR7 15.1" OLED WQXGA 2560x1600 $1850 tax in, free shipping Lenovo is running some pretty good deals this...

As for OP's question about the legality of booby traps intended to cause harm in Canada, the answer is no. https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/section-247.html The law is pretty clear: - 5 years imprisonment just for setting the trap - 10 years imprisonment if the trap does cause...

Definitely not AI, otherwise the press release would have generated the text as Harley—Davidson... IYKYK

I just checked, HD market cap is currently $2.55B. Polaris' market cap is $3.83B...! damn. Only two periods during the last quarter-century where their share price has dipped so low was the Dotcom bubble bust in 2000 and the GFC in 2008, where the falling tide lowered everyone's valuations...
