I have the old fashioned hunks of metal called mirror extenders. I can see what’s behind me fine, except when they come loose. I wonder how theft proof the thing will be. $600 is too much.

I’m starting to fear he’s turning into a curbsider.

Not that interesting. Chain was loose on the way down to Alabama, in Scranton. On further inspection, it was loose, tight, loose, tight; some of the links were seized. Got it in to a local dealer, and they squeezed me in and found a new chain. Had to replace the sprockets and chain after I...

Warn the FBI about Kennedy being shot in Dallas?

I could argue the opposite: Bikes are made for little people. I tuck on a small sport bike and my head is two feet in front of the windscreen. Every stock seat is narrow and uncomfortable in front, so that short legged people can get a foot down. Every stock windshield blows wind into my face...

We’ve had a Ryobi for two years, along with the trimmer. I think it was a buy one get one free deal. Works great. Before that, we had a corded mower for 30+ years. Don’t forget to take the blades off every once in a while to sharpen them, or they might refuse to do so.

Big difference in the low is that it’s difficult to get a centre stand and the lower turning clearance.

I have a 2022. Nice bike. Expensive, but not Italian or German expensive. ( but I came from a Weestrom ). I haven’t had any complaints, except the cost of the valve servicing, the cutout they have in the levers, to make sure they snap a a particular point, and the small for me size of the...

It was an 80 at one point. The problem area is where the south High Park path crosses without a crosswalk, bridge or signal. The place where pedestrians cross there is obscured by the bridge. What needs to happen is to tack on a ramp up to the Queenway bridge for pedestrians, and remove some...

Isle of Man might be fun. Putter around, watch a race.

Pretty sure it has a very small parasitic drain, if you don’t have the white wire connected to an existing switched wire. It will then turn the multiple connections on once the engine has been started for a few seconds. If the white wire is connected then the multiple connections turn on...

My take on Speed cameras: City has criteria for where they can be. Might need a certain number of complaints, accidents, deaths, and has to be near a school. They hire a company to administer and maintain the cameras. The company also has criteria. Has to be high traffic street where the...

Bought a Dealertool for the Triumph. Then bought an ODBII reader for the Odyssey.

I try to pay attention to what’s going on around me to prevent surprises.

Careful, you’re on there. So, did itchy feet get her rat bike back?

Anything where the subjects know that they’re being filmed is fake/staged. That being said, I’d rather read a book than infect my eyes with most of that garbage. One YouTube I do watch is a guy teaching motorcycling, as it seems to offer some knowledge. Les is as close as you can get to...

Either. Sold my last bike with some stickers, because it would look more messed up with half a sticker. The bike has been there, so it counts. New bike doesn’t have any on it yet, but I have a few stickers already, that might go inside the trunk.

I always find that like sports, I’d rather be doing than watching. Trying to watch that would have me climbing the walls. I can’t even watch much of Les Stroud, and that’s doing things that I’ll never ever do.

Not sure what kind of screws my dealer used but they weren’t standard. Any kind of cover over the plate numbers/letters should be a $5,000 fine. Second should be a 90 day impound. Same with dark tints on windows. This is never done by “accident “. - - - Not sure how this guy managed this...

Every fifteen minutes or less? It gets really annoying really quickly.
