    Feedback on AM Sales

    A nearly 900lb bike with a torquey big twin isn't a good starter bike. You will drop it a bunch of times, likely all at slow speed. In that regard, it probably has the engine guards so it won't do big damage, but better to graduate to a bike like this after becoming competent at slow speed...

    Off leash dogs running around

    Almost as bad, one time a woman's little yappy dog on a long leash (10-12feet) ran up to get in my dog's face. My dog does react, but I will always keep her under a short leash in those situations and will direct her away from the other dog. This women did nothing, just walked along with a...

    Does it have a cable or hydraulic clutch? If you're a new rider, I don't think you'd like the cable clutch on the big twin Harleys.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    For me, an autopilot equipped Model 3 for around $50000 after the provincial rebate would've been worth seriously considering, but the future of the Ontario incentive is uncertain.

    Are you old enough to remember these motorcycle shops in To?

    Where can I buy hardened steel chain in GTA? 14mm or thicker

    I think you can order hefty size chain at Brafasco. I bought some there several years ago and I think the thickest they stocked at the store was 12mm.

    Any GTAM'ers own an eclectic vehicle?

    Closest I got to owning an eclectic vehicle was a Studebaker Avanti being sold by someone I knew a bunch of years back. It was running well and he offered it to me at a good price, but I couldn't justify having a purely toy vehicle taking up space in the garage.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    While I joked about it, it's not me calling asking about the car. I have to admit, the discussion about the Volt in this thread has me seriously thinking about one for the future (2-3 years from now).
