This is the brand apparently….but he bought it quite a few years ago:

Website looks a bit sketchy to me….there are other kits available as well (even on Amazon).
Here you go…some additional info from a class action attempt for you:

I’ve got the XT. Prior to that I had the 596 (and another model prior to that). The music streaming on the XT frustrates me. There is no wired option for headphones (hey, it’s the modern world!). The downside is that streaming from your phone to the Zumo and then your comms is buggy. The...
That’s what She’ll used to do. My guess is when the 11% and up recommendation happens, they might do so again. Who knows. Fingers crossed. But if anyone knows of a gas station in Toronto that has ethanol free gas, I’ll happily call and/or make the trip over with a testing kit to verify 😂
There...
Oh my….Google is your friend. As a long time owner of many Ducatis, I know exactly what the issue was.
I’m not going to argue with you. Enjoy your ethanol free gas when you find it.
Also….the Ducati issue was not a “melting” tank issue. It was an expanding tank issue that was, in fact, due to ethanol.
So before you get angry, please do some reading.
@Wingboy I hope so. Did you read the govt website?
The renewable content requirement increases to:
11% in 2025
13% in 2028
15% in 2030 and onward
Alternatively we can just let it happen….most won’t pay attention because they don’t even read their car owner’s manual (let alone a gas pump).
Can we all write our MPPs? Regardless of the arguments for/against ethanol in fuel, the environmental and financial impacts this will have are massive. Does everyone have to replace their vehicle(s) far earlier due to shortening of lifespan?
Basically, by 2025, our fossil fuel burning motorcycles will be forced into extinction…most if not all manufacturers say DO NOT exceed 10% ethanol. Ontario will be at 11% in 2025.
Watch your carry-on allowances. With the mess that checking baggage has become, EVERYONE is doing the carry-on thing, and airlines have become increasingly strict about following the “rules”. Check your airline’s website for details on allowable sizes for carry-on and personal items.
This is a case of an item (not motorcycle related) not being available in Canada….not a matter of trying to save a few bucks.
Given the value, I think I’m going to go with an address only option. This will limit the number of unknown people handling it. I’ll just go and pick it up and make a...
I’ve never heard of them, but this looks even more convenient because I wouldn’t need to drive over and pick up in the US.
Does Shippsy charge brokerage fees? Couldn’t find anything on their website.
