Check out CarpiMoto.it for great prices on Givi. I got my GIVI case supports from them for my G650GS. They ship from Italy but it's no longer than anything I've ordered from Fortnine.
In general, if you're going to Italy... take a suitcase one size too big, or buy a suitcase while you're there...
I got a shad top case from studio cycle in 2023. It was in stock at the time not sure about now.
As for my shad... It's in Italy now. Sees daily action for one month a year so, still looks new, only 90 days on the road max though.
Way less exciting but I bought this motorcycle turntable used on marketplace for $90....
Even the dog isn't sure how to feel about it, though we did get her to take it for a literal spin.
It seems to work really well on the Vespa's. But honestly, at their weight, you don't really need them...
Totally. The possibilities are endless.
When I told my partner the idea, she asked if we could do dyno pulls on our power drills to see who had the better one (hers is the "inside drill", mine lives in the garage...).
For context: My partner's an engineer. If you think I get weird ideas, live...
Respectfully... What the heck kind of question is that? 😂
What would I do with a dyno at home? First, put my 9 shitboxes on my dyno! I'd start with my two little 250ccs to see how they compare. Why not? Then the next weeked I'd invite all my friends to bring some frozen burgers over on their...
Sorry to backpedal a little here.
I always thought you had to transfer ownership in Quebec, pay the tax there, come back here, transfer ownership again, pay the tax again, then apply to get the Quebec tax back.
Now I'm seeing some people are skipping the Quebec step and just bringing the bike...
Years ago a guy I used to know in Texas was making home made dynos using arduino, some welding tools, a big heavy metal roller, and a harbor freight table lift.
This isn't the guy I knew but it's the same idea:
Part 1
and Part 2
Anyone ever seen some kind of home made setup like...
Drones have onboard GPS and internal compass. They also know what their own flight path was that got them to where they are. Even if GPS was overwhelmed, drone typically wants uppies, not downies, when it looses connection (it goes to pre-programmed altitude, usually put very high to avoid...
Smart thinking. He used the restricted TTC vehicles only lanes because he knew even the cops aren't allowed on there anymore.
Doesn't need to be anything that expensive. My Talaria MX-5 would comfortably do 90+ km/hr, and when my body was broken from the car accident last summer and just...
LOL. Ok, you got me. I've never driven a Miata. I'm a bike guy through and through. It just seemed like the kind of thing I can see myself taking with the dog beside me if my body is too broken to ride.
Re: Soul, I see it kind of parallel to character - If you put me on the bike blindfolded...
But what does this have to do with me saying it's easy to love a 650cc thumper? I wasn't comparing the two. But yes, I do keep one of mine in a country very close to Germany, and yes, when I thought I might need a regulator I was told I would have to a wait an entire 1-2 days before it would...
Not quite the same thing, but another 650cc single cylinder big thumper.
I read this immediately after writing a multi paragraph essay in another thread about why I love riding my BMW G650GS... I own two of them. Definitely in love with my pair of German tractorcycles.
@Norcorider one nice...
If everything to do with motorcycles is easy, congratulations, you have money lol.
When I was starting, I was broke. Everything to do with motorcycles was hard. Back then I would have liked motorcycles that were easier in all kinds of ways, but those cards weren't on the table at that point...
....Welcome to riding a Vespa. I'm sure the Mini Moto people get the same thing.
Different vehicles get different levels of respect, space, attention, and consideration. And despite what the "loud pipes don't do anything" crowd will tell you, different volumes also get different results...
Same. Maybe it's a Euro ear thing, otherwise @ToSlow will have the same issue.
Even when I could get ear buds to stay in when I put my helmet on, as soon as I took my helmet off it's an instant game of where on the ground did those ear buds land because at least one will always fall out.
