    Daily sports car?

    I remember reading that the better visibility of white was the reason for the police changing away from yellow. Now they've gone back to stealth. :mad:

    Lightcycles!

    Nice to see it's no longer just an ongoing rumor. Will be a nice early Christmas present. Maybe even a GTAM movie night? EDIT: oops, thought it was a December release. October even better!

    What's the going rate for motorcycle service?

    I still suspect people who have had a clip fail probably didn't install them correctly. I've seen too many people pry or otherwise twist the clip open sideways to get it over the stud, which deforms it and ruins its integrity. It's meant to be slipped on flat by pushing on the back, and...

    Buying gear from Europe

    You can bring as much as you want, but if you don't want to pay any taxes or duty, then it's $800 if you're away for 48 hours or more. If you're away for a week, that $800 can be shipped, so you don't even need the luggage: https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/pdt-pdt-eng.html#details-panel2

    What's the going rate for motorcycle service?

    If you do your maintenance at the end of the season or during the winter, you can take as much time as you need. Stick with an established name brand like DID, EK, RK, or Regina. I forget which one of them has the "screw-until-it-breaks-off" rivet master link, but it looks like the easiest (and...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    The nut will always be in the same position since the stud doesn't move - it's the eccentric hub of the pulley that rotates. I've heard stories of the tensioner being installed off-center, so maybe you got "lucky" and the cover wouldn't fit over the misaligned pulley, preventing you from...

    Getting a 10d Permit for a Safety

    You'll get more recommendations if you post your general location and a travel radius. For me, I only used one place, but they're no longer in business. What you really want to be asking is for recommendations on a place that will do a proper safety without holding you hostage for unnecessary work.

    Getting a 10d Permit for a Safety

    Make sure you make your safety appointment before getting the permit in case you need to wait longer than 10 days, especially at this time of year.

    Getting a 10d Permit for a Safety

    I'd just us e a loop of painter's tape on the back of the unpeeled sticker. That will last for 10 days easily, and then just as easily come off when it expires. I did the same to attach fugly reflectors to my forks when I imported my bike and needed to pass RIV inspection (well, I stuck them on...

    Alpinestars Tech Air 5 Plasma Airbag Vest

    Did you find that you had to go one size larger than what you normally wear? When I bought my TechAir 5 last year, I got the same size as my jacket and found it to be a touch on the tight side. I'm hoping this won't be the case with the Plasma version.

    Tim Hortons on Leslie and Lakeshore

    Even MotoSocial which started out pretty chill has devolved, and last year's season literally ended with a bang when someone basically wheelied into another rider.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    What was the problem with the cover not fitting? As for bodywork removal, wait until you try a Honda. I recall having to start by removing the tail fairing to get the front fairing off on the CBR.
