    M1 insurance

    No idea where EvoEx and BigEvil teach at - but I did my M1 through Learning Curves, and can't speak highly enough about them... the instructors love to ride, and love to teach... They had 3 or 4 different styles of bikes to practice and test on; and when I was having trouble with one (long...

    Plumbing experts help

    https://www.buildingcode.online/section7.html I'm the electrician, not the plumber - but hopefully the above can point you in the right direction... 7.5 is venting.

    Winter storage

    Thankfully, I work for car-guys... we all part our toys in the back of the warehouse. I fill the tank, throw in stabilizer on the last ride; park it inside, and cover it. Throw a battery tender on it once or twice over the winter. I'm lucky that's an option.. if not, I'd probably go...

    Continental battery

    Continental is an Exide brand... They have plants in Indiana and Missouri; as well as India. If it's got the Made in USA sticker, then it was most likely made in Missouri.

    Regularly starting your bike in winter is bad

    I leave mine on an intelligent charger (Battery Tender Jr) - fill it with gas and stabilizer before the last ride; and part it in a climate controlled warehouse... (I'm lucky that I work for car guys - the back 1/4 of our warehouse has Mustangs, a Viper, 2 corvettes, a BMW coupe, a 69 Hemi Cuda...

    Why is Ontario becoming the wild-west of roads and highways?

    I drive all across Canada for work... Alberta? The speed limit -IS- the limit... more than 5-7 over, and you're talking to the RCMP or local cop. Quebec? Super aggressive drivers, and fast - yet very well mannered. I often am pulling a trailer, in Ontario I have to push in; in QC, I put my...

    Let’s make things more expensive for customers…

    And those rewards are exactly the problem... the CC companies aren't eating a dime; they just pass the cost of those rewards programs on to the retailer. I get why you like it, but there's no such thing as a free lunch - for every dollar in rewards you receive, a retailer is paying a $1.05...

    Shell gas no longer Ethanol Free

    We had a lot of problems with the small engines on backup/reserve trucks at the fire hall - older chainsaws, small generators, pumps, that sort of thing... Between the carbs getting crapped up, and fuel lines; ethanol fuel led to a lot of maintenance and replacements.

    400 N of 88 rip

    RIP - Highway was closed for quite a while, so the reconstruction and traffic services teams could do their thing.

    Shell gas no longer Ethanol Free

    One thing I haven't seen mentioned - was that older fuel lines (particularly on small engines) were affected by ethanol... the rubber would soften and swell; often splitting at fittings or clamps.

    Let’s make things more expensive for customers…

    As someone who accepts credit cards; I understand it... With all the 'premium' and reward cards that banks and Credit card companies are offering - they are dinging me (and all merchants) with variable and ever-increasing processing fees... Depending on the card, I can pay between 1.5% and 5%...

    Where can I buy these?

    https://www.amazon.ca/Molex-2-Pin-Connector-Kit-0-093/dp/B004GUQ2ZM Pretty common 2-pin Molex connector - Sayal or A-1 should have them, but you'll have to go look in person....

    Battery check device

    I don't sell motorsports/automotive... I do mostly stationary reserve (think back up for cell towers, radio broadcast, internet and phone companies, that sort of thing). Lithium starts to lose capacity below about 20 degrees; and really falls off around 5 degrees... Some older...

    Sugarloaf Marina, in Port Colborne (on Lake Erie) - has TONS of goldfish, some as big as 18" or so... and goldfish will eat basically anything, so they thrive in any environment. People are dumb...

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    They formally charged the driver yesterday - 3x the legal limit; a cooler bag full of beer in the back seat and a plastic bag of empties beside it... Truck's been seized for 7 days, 90 day suspension for the driver, and the MTO is 'reviewing' the company CVOR status. Whoops.
