    Solution to Global Financial Crisis

    There is no solution. Every country in the world is in debt; every state/province is in debt and every city is in debt. In the 20th century the eastern Europeans proved that Communism doesn't work and now we are proving that Capitalism doesn't work either. Sad thing is that a lot of debt is...

    Total loss on my bike...looking for the next one

    I was wearing low rise safety shoes with steal toe and shank, so my ankles were exposed. But even the big aluminum frame spars that run down the side of the bike got way hot. Temperature read 105°C which I guess is normal. Thermostat and rad fan seemed to work well. When temp got high fan would...

    Total loss on my bike...looking for the next one

    I had a 1998 VFR this summer and I kept it for a month. It gets HOT. The exhaust heats up your right foot so much that you have to hold it on the outside edge of the peg. Nice bike, but for highway only. So I'm shopping for a bike too and having a hard time. I'm finding the seats that are...

    Get the f outta here!!! Omg!!!

    A lot of bikes are like that now. I'm having a hard time finding a bike that might be comfortable. Some seats are U shaped like an extreme horse saddle and they'll get you when you put the breaks on. Other seats are slanted downhill into the tank and your bum slides down in your pants and you...

    That was quick... Happy being back!

    When i broke my right heel 7 years ago the doctor warned me not to drive for a while. He had a patient with a broken leg who was driving a car and was involved in an accident. Someone died and she got two years for impaired driving. We always think of impaired driving as driving drunk but it is...

    Obstruction of justice...

    A lot of misery and money was spent in Afganistan to give them the rights and freedoms that we have and what we have is a joke. We're no different from Mexico or Argentina or Pakistan or any other country we look down our noses at.

    We WERE all set to start the motorcycle lifestyle...

    You mentioned that you live in an apartment? Condo/apartment building parking lots are not conducive to motorcycle ownership. Usually the security staff in the building have friends/relatives that are thieves and your bike will soon end up in a container on the way to Jamaica/Mexico/Russia.

    cheap rotella t6

    Has anyone ever used oil for a Volkswagon TDI in their bike? Any reason why it wouldn't work? Or work as well as the Rotella? Do either have the slippery additives that make our clutches slip?

    Parkerizing

    This is the best thread that I've read since the board was created. There is a company called Bodycote, I think they have a metal treating facility in Guelph. They may be familiar with it. I've seen a number of Square Fours over the years. The Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Rally is every...

    Stolen bike registry

    What do you mean, stolen plates. They stole tmas' 1992 van. What do you think they are going to use it for. Most of these losers are carrying weapons and are into heavy drugs so if you are not going to kill them from a distance then it is best to stay away and call the cops.
