    Amber alert

    I'm virtually throwing up my hands as I'm reading your comment :) If a person is a snowflake, maybe customer service is not the best career choice. I also question what doctor in their right mind would write a note for that.

    Amber alert

    That's disgusting. Imagine it was your kid. RIP Riya. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. This is so sad. What a waste of a young life That's the problem in the world today. Everyone has the sense of self entitlement. One of our Customer Service Managers is off on sick leave as she...

    Bank Recommendations

    Thanks to all. TD it is. It's all complete and the process was quite painless. I had to move 9 accounts so the paperwork did take a little time. It also took me about an hour to change all the direct deposits and withdrawals but its done now. The only thing left are the transfers on the trading...

    Bank Recommendations

    When I lived in Vancouver I used to bank with the Canadian Western Bank. They are a small provincial bank in BC but had amazing service, low fees, and everyone was very friendly and trustworthy. I travel a lot with work and never once had an issue with using ATM's with their bank card or their...

    The confusion of car buying

    I just replaced my F150 with a GMC Sierra and couldn't be happier. There were a number of systemic issues with the Ford. 1) Suspension - It seems as though they put a much lighter Aluminium body on a the new F150 but didn't change the suspension rate. Its very harsh and chattery over even the...

    Reg rectifiers

    Well, anyone wanting to upgrade their R/R on a 2 wire single phase system the Shendengen FH020AA works perfectly. Just use 2 of the inputs. I'm now getting a consistent ~14.2 volts across the rev range. The hardest part was actually getting somewhere to mount its with good airflow as its a lot...

    Reg rectifiers

    Thanks. I had a look at his site and he does seem very knowledgeable. He does specifically mention that its a good upgrade on single phase 2 wire systems. 50 year old electronics suck.

    Reg rectifiers

    Sorry if this is a bit of a thread hijack. Mods feel free to move or delete. I have a real Shindengen FH020AA. It’s still a shunt but it uses modern electronics so not something that was developed in the 60’s. I bought it for a GPZ550 but ended up using a SH847 so it’s brand new never...

    Welding Gas - Argon CO2 mix

    I need to do a couple of small mods to my trailer but am out of gas on my MIG. I need to weld on brackets to bolt on a lockable aluminum storage box I have a 40cf Hobart tank and when I lived in Vancouver I could just take it to KMS and they would fill it - they were very hobbyist friendly...

    GasketKing

    Yes. I guess they ship to Canada now. Just finished putting the motor back together today. Very pleased with the quality and would buy from them again.

    GasketKing

    My son is doing his first restore - a 1972 CB350 K4 Given the popularity of these bikes I’m surprised that Honda don’t stock a lot more parts. Most are NLA including a lot of the Gaskets. I have a friend that loves CB350’s and has built quite a few for the VRRA and AHRMA. He recommended...

    General Motors Oshawa to Close

    i have to say I do prefer the Opel. I rented one on a business trip to Barcelona last February. It was a nice enough car. It was black so the front bumpers, grills and hood all blended together. That yellow/gold would not be my favourite

    General Motors Oshawa to Close

    i don’t think you can get a 4 cylinder Sierra. You may be able to get it in a Canyon. I’m not sure. I need the V8 as the the toy hauler is 6k lbs unloaded. I don’t think you would have any chance towing that with a 4 cylinder gas engine

    General Motors Oshawa to Close

    I’m going to replace my Truck and it will most likely be with a Silverado or Sierra, regardless of what happened :-( I also looked at the Ram and Ram eco diesel. They were nice but I think I preferred the Sierra. I need something to pull the toy hauler so need a truck

    TDot Performance - Horrible Experience

    Well... I finally have Nuts... :-) Took a while but I got them in the end. I just wish Fortnine or Petes would start offering stuff like this

    General Motors Oshawa to Close

    If it’s true my heart goes out to those affected. Not a nice thing to happen just before Christmas. Most of those people have been there for years and the chances of them getting something in a similar field must be very slim. I think one line was scheduled to close in 2016 anyway, thankfully...

    TDot Performance - Horrible Experience

    I would expect to survive in this market a business would need to be more like Pete's or Fortnine. If they don't have something in stock they inform me and give me an estimate of when it will ship. I can then choose to buy it of not. I think these guys were on Dragons Den. Does anyone know if a...

    TDot Performance - Horrible Experience

    What a terrible experience. I bought a set of ARP Nuts and Studs from these guys. The impression they give you is that they actually keep the parts in stock. But what they won’t tell you is they have no stock, at least until after they have your money. They send you a commit to buy email...
