    Powerwheels Battery

    I did look into the conversion but you also need to install something to keep them from discharging too low and runtime is less so I've heard so I think I'll just stay oem. Plus they're on the gas toys more now so the Powerwheels will be too slow/boring for them quite soon anyways.

    Powerwheels Battery

    Gotta be some dads on here that know the go-to spot to order battery’s for Powerwheels. I accidentally set the CTEK to 12v Car instead of the Bike setting and boiled the battery. Whoops. Amazon or is there some other online spot I don’t know about?

    Stealerships Stories... Got one?

    They were someone I contacted when I bought and I agree they seemed decent and straight forward when they got back to me. They had a truck on the lot I wanted but ultimately none of them were moving much on the price even though it was January and the model was a leftover ‘23 so I just factory...

    Stealerships Stories... Got one?

    I bought a used 10yr old Accord from an older couple to use as a commuter and it came with every service record from day one from the Honda dealer. Everything except the engine and body had been replaced on recommendations by the dealer. Even the rubber door trims. It was sickening to go through...

    COVID and the housing market

    I asked my wife if we could hire a designer when we built our house and she said she can design it herself. I’ve repainted 4 rooms so far…. When I built our built-ins a couple years ago my wife also requested the fireplace and area behind shelving painted so she is getting pretty good at it...

    Appliances brands?

    Love our Bosch dishwasher. Wife loads it with a wheelbarrow and it still cleans. Our 5yr old Fridgidaire fridge has started making a noise that seems to be fan-related. Can be pretty loud at times then it just goes away but it seems to be a daily thing now.

    Auto shop feedback

    Aftermarket Summers on my last vehicle had hubcentric adaptors, My Winters were also for a different vehicle and I could have gotten another pair of adaptors but just eyeballed it that they were on evenly around the hub when I cinched them up. Not the best solution but no vibration.

    Road Force balance? Had the same thing at Ken’s Motorworks. As soon as I left and merged onto Hwy it was shaking my fillings out. His reply was that he balanced it the best he can and had no interest in double checking his work. So I bought one of those $100 balance stands and rebalanced the...

    Auto shop feedback

    I do our own tire switchovers but if I have to go to the shop for a new tire or any other reason where the wheel comes off at the shop I loosen them and torque to spec as soon as I’m home.

    Auto shop feedback

    Like Bitzz said, should have towed the car back there. You’re a customer complaining about the work they did yet you refuse to show the shop the problem. Sounds like they were reasonable and offered to fix their mistake. Yeah it’s annoying and yeah it’s their fault, but accidents happen and if...

    More trouble in snowmobile land

    Mild enough today to soften the base but not so bad that snow will disappear. Perfect condition to set a great base when temps drop tomorrow.

    Toronto Motorcycle and Powersports Show - Feb 14-16

    But did it really eat into MTS sales? Didn't seem to sell at all which is likely the real reason it was axed. I shopped them and wanted to like it but then realized it really wasn't touring comfy or have long range, or good at luggage capacity, so I bought a Multi which did all those things plus...

    TD Meloche..........

    I left TD MM years ago when they kept raising rates year after year with no reason.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Good condition garage doors pop up for sale all the time where people are changing the look. That could be an option. Either way I’d change the door instead of trying to make the old one more efficient. I’m assuming the rest of the garage is insulated and any draft areas already taken care of.

    Coyotes

    I’m sure if they played Celine Dion on the thing it would keep pretty much everything away.

    Am I the only one to own (much) more than one set of motorcycle gear?

    That’s the pose of “I just bought my first motorcycle and here’s my fancy new outfit”

    Dakar 2025

    Love the Dakar Youtube channel highlights. In a 10min highlight you'll see 5min bikes, 3.5min cars, some SXS and truck and about 10sec of quads...........because F.U. quads! (If you ride dirtbikes you'll get it)

    Am I the only one to own (much) more than one set of motorcycle gear?

    I need to come up with a display of some type for my garage so that I can put my helmets there. Between my wife and I we have 2 MX, 3 sled, 1 track, 4 street helmets. Nice if I could incorporate my track onesie in there as well. Maybe that'll be a winter project.

    Am I the only one to own (much) more than one set of motorcycle gear?

    I downsized about 5yrs ago selling off all of my coats and replacing the lot with a waterproof 3-season ADV coat which I love. At the time I had a mesh coat, a mid-grade leather coat, a schmantzy $1000 A* jacket that was too pretty and heavily discounted at dealer to pass up, and a leather...
