I've had to use my phone as a GPS couple times over the years and once it did that too. I had it plugged into the bike and wasn't sure if being charged while exposed to the hot sun caused the issue. It was an older iPhone 6, so I'm also not sure if that issue would happen with the newer phones.

Thanks as always for organizing @Evoex :) I'm a maybe for dinner - work is very crazy right now, so all depends on that. I voted yes in the poll The karting looks awesome - hope you all have a blast.

Same here - about 50k out of every chain. On my V-Strom I was getting closer to 60k per chain and the FZ1 I swapped it at 45k.

That looks pretty sweet. Anything like that for non-BMW bikes?

I haven't used a memory card for route loading into the GPS devices in over 10 years. Now it's super quick and easy to create my routes on the laptop and transfer to the device, but I use MyRouteApp to do all that stuff because the Garmin basecamp is one of the least user intuitive programs out...

10w40 I tried using the Rotella for a season or two and it was fine, but I did notice that shifting felt clunky near the end of the interval. With the 7100, I found that the shifting was still buttery smooth right to the end of interval. Also on long trips the bike still felt great with...

Close! I scored a brand new original Zumo XT back in the fall of 2023 for $400 off some guy who bought it from a store and then had a medical issue and stopped riding right after. I currently prefer riding with the XT over a phone and get live traffic updates on the GPS, since it's paired to...

Motul 7100 here - everything else is for pinko's

Forgot about the bot we thought was ROQET who turned out to be real. Welcome!!

If any of your crew likes gardens and plants, then the Butchart Gardens outside Victoria is a great way to spend a couple hours walking around. It's super beautiful: The Butchart Gardens The Old Country Market in Coombs is a cool place to stop and check out the goats on the roof, then take the...

Sounds good and message / images sent.

Sure I can do that, but know that the whole book is dedicated to BC. I would take pics as opposed to scanning them. Let me know a specific region of BC that you are most interested in knowing some hidden gems and I'll see what the book or map offers.

Usually when I do a trip, I read all kinds of local forums to find the best roads. But a lot of the time the roads suggested are the best of the best and don't always reflect the hidden gems and lesser known back roads. It was advised to me that I should buy the Destinations Highways BC book...

I have 2 standing desks, one for my office and one for my DJ booth. Office: Metro Adjustable Height Desk - 60 x 30 The office one is pretty similar to the link above, but was around $600. It also has a built in electrical outlet w/ dual USB outlets on the top of the desk. Underneath it has a 6...

I recently bought a Vantrue F1: https://fliesonthevisor.com/vantrue-f1-motorcycle-dash-cam/ Just have to spend a moment and install it. Here’s a more recent thread on the subject: https://www.gtamotorcycle.com/xf/threads/l-f-dash-cam-recommendations.223369/

Impossible - there's only 11 forum members.

Poorly worded ads for the win. My bike is an FZ1 and the bike was listed as an FZR. It sat on Marketplace for months with no one interested in it. despite being priced 25% less than all the comparable bikes. I just happened to stumble upon the ad and recognized the picture of the bike and...

I love my lift and it paid for itself in one year of ownership and not needing to go to the shop to do simple work.

As it stands now, I won't be travelling south - would rather travel Canada and support local as much as possible.

Should I wear full leathers?
