    Is this riding season abnormal?

    Not sure if anyone else remembers but it was FUCKIN COLD right up until mid June last year.... I remember this distinctly because we barely had one solid week of really nice weather before I left for Italy, June 23rd of 2025. As someone who works in the motorcycle biz, I made sweet **** all...

    Did I ruin this tire?

    If you have 35 seconds, watch from 6:05 to 6:40 and you'll see the work that goes into replacing front vs rear tire on the Vespa GTS 250:

    $5000, to spend another $1000 and a weekend to get it all sorted out, so that when it's all fixed up and good you can have a nice bike worth $3000 lol

    Did I ruin this tire?

    Glad you got 'er all sorted out. Didn't realize it was the rear tire! Yeah, on a Vespa, that's a freakin' process. The upside is, with the single sided front end (no traditional front forkS on a Vespa, the front end uses 1940s airplane landing gear design), it's faster and easier to change the...

    Where to get tires installed?

    lol. Guess we aren't a Gaoler approved team then. We've just owned a home together for almost a decade. I have 9 motorcycles across two countries. She has a horse that could either be worth $80k with a couple year's training, or could loser her $40k if it's gets injured/sick during that time...

    Where to get tires installed?

    Work for a month in the motorcycle biz. The amount of people you'll see who have to kowtow subserviently to their SWMBOs is wild. I had 1 or 2 motorcycles inside the house when the missus met me, so, she knows who came first, and she's too smart to give me an ultimatum. Also, separate bank...

    Where to get tires installed?

    How much is one worth to you? I was thinking of selling mine now that I have a tire machine. Packs down in the duffle bag that comes with it, so you can discretely sneak it into the garage and pretend like it was always there. Also, my particular Rabaconda duffle bag has been heavily...

    Where to get tires installed?

    To be expected honestly. Anyone who works for himself in the motorcycle industry in Canada has to be a complete ******* nutjob. It comes with the territory. Trust me. Source: I'm a guy who works for himself in the motorcycle industry in Canada.

    Did I ruin this tire?

    Vespa tire? Come over. I'll let you use my tire machine and get you lubed up real good :sneaky: (Everything seems cringey as hell when you add a winky face at the end lol) Alternatively, maybe Pegasus can dust off his axle sticks and show you how it's done 😂 Waiting for you @NuggyBuggy...

    E bikes rampaging Toronto streets

    The missus saw someone doing crack on the TTC last week. I know you've been gone for a while, but, yeah, it's gotten really bad... I used to take the TTC daily for years, but between the homeless people taking over entire subway carts, piss, and the bed bugs spotted on trains and busses, I...

    E bikes rampaging Toronto streets

    To be fair, back then you could actually get somewhere for $10 in a taxi. Now when I spend $10 in a taxi I get about a 2 minute walk from where I got in the taxi. Fuel prices aren't what they used to be and I think we can't judge things as if they're still the same.
