    Q: Did watching racing on Sunday sell you a bike on Monday?

    If that was truly the case, everyone would still have a working Honda in their garage.

    Overbearing electronics

    Had a WeeStrom that just had an early version of ABS. It did extremely well when braking against other students at courses; especially, when they didn’t have ABS. New Tiger has cruise, which is almost required when travelling long distances at 85 mph in the U.S. A drawback is that the service...

    Gortex question.

    I was told that Gortex is waterproof or breathable, never both at the same time. For the most part, I wear something breathable, and carry a waterproof jacket. I did notice this year, that the jacket and pants are good on a motorcycle, but poor off of one. Rain was going down my neck, and...

    MacDoc's rides 2015 CB300 to 2018 MT03 to 2017 GS310 to 2014 CB500F.

    I always like a big windscreen now, but it depends on your height, where you go and how fast you travel. Doing 85 mph in the States definitely gets tiring in the wind. For me, even doing 80 kph, I don't like the wind on my chest, and I have stubby legs and a long torso.

    What are you reading?

    Sounds like Tarzan, John Carter of Mars et al. Just listened to a podcast. Are they ok here or separate?

    Hearing test

    Had a free one at Costco a month ago. Getting some wax cleaned out at the doctor’s Thursday, and a second test next week. No cost has been mentioned. I will probably end up with hearing aids. Many of the hearing aid shops offer free tests.

    Anyone here a cyclist?

    Make sure the bolts screwing the cleats to the shoes are tightened. I lost one and it caused the shoes to not unclip. How are people dealing with the multitude of unlicensed uninsured electric motorcycles flipping between bike lanes, roads and sometimes sidewalks? Do you just avoid Toronto?

    Leafs

    It's getting colder, but the Leafs don't fall until the end of April. It's not Autumn yet, but on average Sept. 27th is good if you're looking for red leaves in Algonquin.

    Was following a truck yesterday from Tweed. No lights at all on the trailer, and the boat hid the trucks lights. This is a no brainer.

    This season has been terrible for motorcyclists

    It used to take 8-12 minutes to cross Toronto on the Gardiner. They still haven't fixed the Don Mills south off ramp to make up for the removed Gardiner section, or figured a way to do proper maintenance on the Lakeshore east of Jarvis. When I first moved to Ottawa I noticed that it was worse...

    Will this help HD attract younger buyers??

    Have a friend who owns three now. Third one was purchased within the last month. He went to hop on the third one yesterday and it wouldn't start. :( Two are inactive. Still waiting for parts or diagnosis on the one that he'd ride. Not attracting me to the brand, and I don't think it would...

    Any "Birders"?

    These are my types of birbs to watch. Around during mid-day and you have to be careful not to trip over them. Galapagos Islands

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    I'd prefer Ditko & Kirby. Lee was one of the main reasons I stopped reading Marvel, although I didn't realize it at the time.
