    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Hah, just like another auto maker - they never have "recalls", they only have "upgrades". Semantics!

    Jan motorcycle show, plan on going?

    https://motorcyclesupershow.ca/ $27.91 for a ticket - is it worth it? The big players have not put on an attendance for the last couple of years, ticket prices are up and has it become a flea market of sorts? (The last show I had been to was pre-pandemic)

    Girder forks with a new twist!

    Read about this unusual fork design that may even make it into production. The engineering is fine, but the looks? https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/new-tech/cfmoto-girder-fork/

    Anybody need some cellular data?

    The phone guy at the store told me that the difference between 4G and 5G speeds is only evident with hard core gaming or binge streaming and that too it may not be a whiz-bang difference.

    Honda Recall (250k vechicles)

    Sometime back I had approached a Honda dealer for an issue with the Civic, explaining that there was a TSB for the very same issue in the US. I was told that "that is in the US and not here in Canada". Same car, same issue and a geographical division dictates that the problem is a non-issue...

    For me, the addition of the additive did not help, but then I tried to start the motor after 18 months of storage.

    when does the salt start?

    Heard that Startron works against the ethanol and moisture and Stabil works against the moisture. Am not a chemist of any sort and the above is just hearsay. (is this in danger of becoming like an "oil" thread?[emoji6])
