    CB Radio on Motorcycle

    Hey All! Was chatting to some friends about getting a comms system sometime for our trips. Not a fan of the Cardo et al. as it seems range is not great, and price is steep for the comparatively awful sound quality (god I love my Shure SE215s....). We are thinking of rigging up a DIY CB Radio...

    Anyone Work in Trades? Tell Me About Your Journey!

    Thanks everyone for the responses so far! Seems like finding someone close-ish to me to get a foot in is the way to go. Though I am still unsure if avoiding college is possible - I imagine many people don't want want to work with someone totally green with no experience in the field, and that...

    Anyone Work in Trades? Tell Me About Your Journey!

    I'm sure many of you here are involved in the skilled trades, so I'm just posting to see if some of you may be willing to share some of your experiences / thoughts about the industry, how to get into it (is now even a good time to get into it?), and what I should expect and consider while making...

    COVID and the housing market

    Honestly, If things keep going like this in the GTA, I will just have to get a move on regarding altering my career prospects and run for the hills to a different city/town/village/hamlet. I've been liking the city less and less as the days go by anyways - the only thing keeping me here is my...

    COVID and the housing market

    Yikes good to know.. When I rented my last place (november 2020) I had to deal with a real estate agent for the first time. Place was listed considerably below market but I guess LL didn't wanna do the legwork himself. I was familiar with the house the unit was in so I was already 100% taking...

    COVID and the housing market

    Just making sure I got it right, are you saying realtors will under-price rental units they are working with the same way they do with houses for sale in order to engage people in bidding wars? I know that's a thing that happens in house sales, but I haven't heard of that happening in the rental...

    COVID and the housing market

    If Rental Bidding Wars are any sign, then it seems people are making a hell of a lot more money here than I could have ever imagined. No idea who can afford to bid $700 OVER asking price on any apartment... yikes...

    2000 KLR650 Low RPM Bog and Cold Idle Issues

    Just a quick update! 1) Bike is not doing the stalling thing anymore - though that might be because it's warmer outside and the engine doesn't get stone cold these days. 2) I replaced the pilot jet, which might've done something, might've not. Still does the low rpm bog slightly. Definitely a...

    New Stunting Penalties + E-Bike regulations incoming(?)

    My only issue with this is that fines aren't proportional to income. Work a minimum wage mcdonalds gig and are running late to work and get pulled over? That might be half a months pay. Get a speeding ticket in your 911? You probably don't give two S***s Not to mention the insurance hit :/ If...

    New Stunting Penalties + E-Bike regulations incoming(?)

    Agreed re e-bikes. I hope there's some way to enforce their BS more strictly... I'm also interested in the permanent license suspension for 4 stunt charges. Not sure if it was a thing they did before? I've always hoped for an option for permanent license suspension in Canada, as some people...

    Motorcycle Tubes

    Good to know standard HD tubes are still workable! I see Michelin has "Street" and "Offroad" tubes available in sizes for my KLR. But the "Offroad" are only available in UHD, so I think I will go for "Street" in the future. Also still don't understand the abbreviated nomenclature for Michelin...

    New Stunting Penalties + E-Bike regulations incoming(?)

    Please delete if this was posted already, though I didn't see it on this sub. READ HERE "Licence suspensions also increase if you’re convicted of the charge. For your first offence, you’re without your licence for a minimum of one to three years; for your second, it’s a minimum three to 10...

    Motorcycle Tubes

    Seems slime red is for tubed, and blue seems to be tubeless and non-highway? Did they change the lineup maybe? Seems red is the one to get now.
