    How long should stuff last?

    An interesting topic.....I just learned that because Toronto is a big user of glass in condo sky rises, the majority of glass used, is designed to last 30 years or so. This would be a lot of glass/ windows to replace.

    Track bike winter storing?

    Have been doing this for years, no issues, leave drain plug and rad cap slightly opened. Take battery out, leave in warm place this way never any chance to accidentally start. Pump up tires to 40 psi, cover and forget about it

    Anyone have a moto guzzi v7 racer?

    Moto Guzzi's have always been different from the others. Characteristics include outrageous tank design and of course the lump of an engine. The V7 is a good compromise for in town riding and of course your insurance rates i would think. I own the previous generation, a V11 sport with almost...
