    It's not moving and in neutral. Signal is once again conveying no useful information. No repair needed, functioning as intended.

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    There is zero shooting in my neighbourhood (not enough space). I know quite a few neighbours with gun safes but none choose to publicize for obvious reasons. Afaik, no active shooters or hunters. Got licenses and guns and locked them up. Within earshot, someone really likes shotguns. Hundreds of...

    Damon motorcycles

    Considering that 12 months ago the shares were $5, I assume it's pretty much all dead money in there. If you bought $50K worth of shares a year ago and cash out now you get $35 (minus fees). You might as well let it ride on the tiny chance someone takes it private at a premium. EDIT: Today may...

    COVID and the housing market

    If you want to put a tinfoil hat on, government can make some stupid argument about gold that immediately causes you huge issues converting what you have into something useful.

    Damon motorcycles

    Yup. When I pulled the market cap it was at about 4/100ths of a cent. It's falling fast today. EDIT: Math fail. It's 3/10ths of a cent not 3/100ths.

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    But they're scary and an easy target for both bad policy and a great opportunity for grift. It is very clear that he is following the expected path as JT 2.0. All the same bad policies, a new face, same anger if you dare to question his lies.

    Damon motorcycles

    Holy crap. Their market cap is $92K. That is substantially less than the single prototype bike is worth. Plotting the stock price on a graph that includes negative stock price on the scale is an interesting way to literally prop up the perceived price. https://ir.damon.com/stock-quote-chart

    COVID and the housing market

    He was hoping to double or triple his money on a studio condo he bought for $855K? That was some strong kool-aid. Maybe poor wording and he was hoping to double or triple his 85K deposit? Still crazy short-term but plausible if you bought at the right time (which he didn't).

    Let's talk about the ELEPHANT in the room (certifications)

    Here are the facts: https://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/900611#BK8 As not every situation is detailed clearly, everything else is still interpretation. What one mechanic passes, another may not. With the required pictures many things that would be routinely overlooked will now trigger a...

    Let's talk about the ELEPHANT in the room (certifications)

    It's a way to avoid the huge expense of complying with regulations.

    Let's talk about the ELEPHANT in the room (certifications)

    Probably. I haven't checked the exact wording of the checklist. Presumably that should have failed before or if it complies with the wording on the checklist, it may still pass. Obviously much less room for discretion now and if it doesn't comply with checklist, the mechanic probably has to fail...

    Let's talk about the ELEPHANT in the room (certifications)

    If anything, I have heard the opposite. There were no changes to the certification checklist. It's just done differently (now on tablet and pics required). EDIT: FWIW, even if they tested sound levels (which I doubt they do), unless you have straight pipes or a GP muffler, bikes pass the...

    Damon motorcycles

    Sad but not at all surprising. Either it was a scam to attract idiot politicians/investors from the beginning or they were just idiots and perfection was the enemy of good enough. They needed to get a working bike in production before they spent any time or money on the transformer/self-riding...

    Careful if you enjoy a brew while mowing your lawn (on a riding lawnmower)...

    It's far worse than that. If you drive home sober and then get hammered, if cops show up within two hours of you driving, they can sobriety test you and charge you with DUI. It has been that way for a few years. Helps to mitigate the Michael Bryant defence where you kill somebody and then start...

    Careful if you enjoy a brew while mowing your lawn (on a riding lawnmower)...

    I think the definition that changed was "driver" not "motor vehicle". The path the lawyer used was the definition of driver was limited to "someone who drives or has care or control of a vehicle on a highway". Not on a highway, you're not a driver and therefore letter of the law is no authority...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    I don't know if I know anyone I would consider addicted to motorcycles. Enjoy yes. Spend more than they probably should, yes. Spend so much time/money that their life spirals? Rarely. The closest I have seen was more related to ego than motorcycles, they just happened to be the vector.

    It's mainly semantics/housekeeping. The supreme court already upheld that position even though the wording of the existing laws was poor. https://www.scc-csc.ca/judgments-jugements/cb/2023/39826/

    Harley Happenings - Jochen Zeitz "retiring"

    It was long ago so the numbers are foggy but it was a construction worker with a suspended license buying a Nightrod (with farkles) for something like $800 a month for 10 years. His buddy asked how he was going to make the payments. The worker said he would work weekends to earn extra money to...
