    My early stage HUD display

    You are spending your time doing something you should be proud of even it ends up a one-off held together with duct tape and heat shrink. http://www.gizmag.com/kawasaki-set-to-debut-night-vision-helmet-mounted-heads-up-displays-and-collision-avoidance-technology/11900/ Of course I've been...

    Riding Mexico

    Re: Riding Mexico OT Never been to Mexico and now I'm ascared. Thanks for nothing, lol. Must be my sense of self preservation in advancing years. In my twenties I took a taxi from the airport in a country where the week before, fighter jets were strafing their own people's cars on that highway...

    Motorcycle Jack on Sale at Canadian Tire

    I disregarded a few friends who had no use for this design - fit and/or stability; especially the lack of confidence in stability for their average sized bikes. I bought one because I thought of fabricating L shaped vertical risers to rotate out from the two beams on the jack and line them up...

    Sportbike Rally is NO MORE!!!

    I see you're new to the world of municipal councils :) Where I used to live they hired "expert, experienced" people to form the town's first Economic Development Council. One of the first things they did was take out a full page ad in the local paper to ask anyone and everyone to meet and tell...

Anyone buying should first search compatibility with their smartphone or GPS. Personally I use a pair of...

    Canadian Forces

    Oh, it's become a gun nut thread. Personally I have had no use for fire arms since I signed out. I couldn't even tell you which way the safety is on a hunting rifle, only on anything I was specifically trained on. Many years later a widow showed me the medal and citation story regarding her dear...

    Canadian Forces

    That's going back a ways - FN C1 A1 - helluva a satisfying kick to those. Lighter toys in my short time were the Stirling SMG and 9mm Browning. Heavier was the old John Wayne stuff: .30 and .50 Brownings, Carl Gustav, M74 LAWS, etc. Driving a Lynx full time on a two week exercise, deuce & 1/2...

    Urgent help needed in Kawarthas

    Sorry if it's old but I searched for it here first, honest. I paraphrased it from a tournament bass fishing site. If you know any of those people, they are more fanatical about their past time than any biker I've ever met and it suits them to a T.

    Remembrance Day

    Let's remember they hoped to be the last generation to have to go to war. I get annoyed with the whiners (not here) that come out every year complaining Remembrance Day glorifies war. A few told me it was the best time of their lives and they'd never want to do it again. You people seem to have...

    Urgent help needed in Kawarthas

    Hi Guys, I really need your advice on a serious problem: I have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs: if the phone rings and I answer, the caller hangs up; she goes out with the girls a lot. I try to stay awake to look out for her when she comes home...

    Twisties

    No. Seriously, no. If that is "North" compared to Ajax, at least get to Omemee via Port Perry, 7A to the Caesarea turn off, Cty. 57 to #35, north a minute to Mt. Horeb Rd., up, round and down to #7E. OK, take Ski Hill Rd. back for the return trip.

    Why did you start?

    Eight years after I moved to a small community an hour north of T.O. I got it in my head how cool it would be to travel on a motorcycle on the back roads I was driving in a van at the time. I grew up north of Jane and Wilson and no way José when I was there or if I was still there. After a year...

    wireless helmet headset/audio system?

    I've been running Sena SMH-10's both paired and single all season and got it because I started going two up and thought it would help her confidence instead of being "luggage" on the back, being able to give her a play by play of why I'm doing what I'm doing on the bike in traffic. I still gave...

    Woodpeckers could hold the key to making helmets!!!

    Makes me wonder why this is news when it was considered at least 4 decades ago for combat/safety helmets and these "researchers" have offered nothing new.

    Pavement is hard

    I see the dumbest things in a parking lot; scary to think these people are out on the road among other humans seconds later. A string of cars including me was lined up bumper to bumper to leave a parking lot. The guy in front of me suddenly reverses into my grill because he thought it would be...
