    New HD CEO has a Plan.............

    Even Triumph adapts to the times. They add and remove models as trends come and go. The “standard” offers remain but, they dropped some models like the Thunderbird and Sprint. I suspect the Bobber will drop soon. All this to say you can offer the classic models that have a following and...

    Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride

    I’m sure my pillion will continue with gardening. Fingers are crossed the weather cooperates. The Niagara run isn’t long but, it’s scenic and the destination is a nice spot to enjoy good food and beverages.

    I’m sure many saw this and imagined what it looked like leading up to the photo? https://torontosun.com/news/delta-crash-motorcycle-traffic-lights/wcm/cf9c86b0-033b-4d7b-88b8-84c2fedb051a

    Where to get a puppy?

    We do the local Rona for social obedience training. They have treats at the customer service area and even at the cash out. Was very handy during the winter in unpleasant outdoor conditions. Jump the the cafe with the pup and walk the isles of Rona. The garage is full of stuff to install...

    The Government Took Our 600cc Supersports ("And People Are Furious")!

    Very comprehensive and thought out. Agree with all points. I think another factor is having too much of a good thing. When the 600 SS class became popular, it was awesome. After a few years, a few deaths, red line revs at red lights, and riders complaining there are no good places to...

    I also did a thing!

    There is a reason so many riders have VStroms! 🤣 Street glide looks the best for sure. 😉 Many friends ride Ultras and then get the removable top box and change out the seat for the street glide look. Then the street glide riders, end up getting a comfortable seat for the squeeze and back...

    I also did a thing!

    Hey Mike, Personally, I prefer the Road Glide over Street Glide/Ultra. Fixed fairing cuts the air smoother. Look at anything 2009 or newer. Older versions have issues with the frame affecting steering shake while turning. Not sure when they updated the panniers to open easier. Might be...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Once I experienced a minivan with sliding doors that allowed the windows to roll down, I couldn’t imagine having a van without. While the buzz is appealing, that little port window is a let down. And the range for such a large vehicle is also a let down. If VW is to be the people’s car...

    This weather

    The comprise my wife and I have is living in NZ. Not that Australia is a bad palace. It’s amazing actually. But dreams of relocating, New Zealand would be our pick. If funds were not a concern. Back to weather! Seems like a beauty today!

    Post up your liquor/spirit talk ?

    If you fancy a trip to Niagara on the Lake, Spirit of Niagara Distillery has a wonderful mash whisky that does better than most being a Bourbon wannabe. Cost $45 and very good value for those missing true bourbon but, too stubborn to purchase the real stuff. As long as they continue to...

    Who's riding?

    There are some things you look at and wonder WTF?! Some people’s pleasure is another’s pain. Fashion over function etc. I loved riding my Sportser all day and weekend with feet forward and drag bars and rattling my teeth loose every gravel stone along the way. I would polish and clean that...

    This weather

    The only thing that worries me about Australia is humans are no longer the top of the food chain. Spiders, snakes, sharks. Land or water, there are deadly creatures everywhere! 😂
