    Generators

    I got a cheap Champion generator. Peak 5500w, 4000 running watts. Had an electrician install to the panel with a manual shut off. Works great and will run power to the whole house but you can't run major power sucking appliances like the dryer etc. It will allow you to cook on one burner or...

    How to do police work right

    It's a great idea until a social worker gets killed on the job. We need more support for people with mental health issues so they are not out on the streets to begin with making it an issue the police have to deal with. Not letting them out on the streets and causing the issue for the social...

    Bike meets such as LnL - during COVID 19. Your thoughts.

    Still there. What it accomplished was having all the bikes crowd at the back of the store where there is no tape. So now the parking area is smaller the bikes are closer together. Dumb move on Timmies part IMHO. I just moved on to a different Timmies since they don't want my business...

    Coronavirus

    They don't want you there but they'll happily take your property tax dollars that allow them to pay a much lower rate on their properties. I see nothing wrong with going to the cottage as long as you are self isolating. You pay taxes on it and make a contribution to the community. If they...

    MOTORCYCLES TAXES

    I bought a used bike about 4 years ago. A few months later the seller received a phone call from SO asking him the value he sold it to me for. So as others have said, make sure you and the seller are on the same page.

    Apr 25th riders voted with their wheels...time to ride.

    Have been going through the Timmies drive thru and ordering for the group. One or two of the other riders stands adjacent to the drive thru window and when the bike rolls up to pay I just hand the coffees to the guys who have now crossed into the drive thru lane and are now standing 6 feet...

    Coronavirus

    More people die from the flu each year than the Coronavirus. 291,00 annually worldwide is the lowest estimate. In my opinion it is being handled well by the authorities and we are not going to get surprised like we did with SARS. I wouldn't get your shorts in a knot over it.

    More ducati stupidity.

    I don't like it but I have to pay around 40k for a van that meets my daily needs. 32k for a toy is another story. No wonder the used market is so popular.

    Bills Are For Real

    Went to Buffalo to watch them take on the Vikings in a pre-season game this year and was impressed. Haven't seen them play like that in a long time and it got me interested in the team again. Still I didn't expect them to do this well this year, guess they are for real.

    Opinions on Echelon

    Been with Echelon for about 14 years. Get other quotes every couple of years and they are usually the lowest or only a few dollars more than other companies so not worth switching to me. I'm over 65 and have one speeding ticket on my record. Ride a 1700cc cruiser style bike.

    Looking Americade tips .

    Check the motel prices before you make plans. I went in 2017 and paid $88 for a night. Same motel was charging over $200 this year so I decided not to go. Many people pay it though so they keep charging ridiculous rates. Better book now if you're going. Lots of places have already sold out.

    Suzuki boulevard M90 or Yamaha Stryker ????

    Both are too big for you. These are not starter bikes. Go with a smaller bike. Vstar 650 is a good one.

    Seeking someone to look over a first bike for me

    You can use the bill of sale on the UVIP but if you have a bill of sale from the seller you don't need the one on the UVIP. If you can't get Frekeguy you can call Red at Red's Motorcycles in Orangeville. He'll do a safety for you and give you an opinion on the bike. redsmotorcycles.ca is the...

    Do you buy used or new? Why?

    All used. For a toy it's a lot of money to invest if buying new and losing the depreciation just by driving it off the lot. By buying used I don't lose that 30% up front and if I see a good deal on another used bike a few years down the road I can sell my current ride and not lose much. Have...
