That angle is one way of looking at it. I`ve been mortgage free for years though. The house is now at about 725K, it has appreciated at 6.4% annually since `98. The CHIP calculator suggests using a 3% appreciation annually, after repayment of P&I there would still be around 650K-ish home value...

Hey at least they have Pattie Lovett-Reid in rotation now, far easier on the eyes. I`d hope with her background she has some integrity despite being paid. :unsure:

A shame to destroy that old Harley, even worse to traumatize the trucker. Back to the real world,....long ago when I lived in Markham there was a bike crash at Markham Rd. and 14th, might have been McCowan or Kennedy though, long ago remember. A rider on a RZ500!! torpedoed the huge concrete...

Sorry for the format, it was in paragraphs when I hit post.

I think it`s been discussed before,.. anyways. I`m getting old, like many members here are, approaching geezer status. Off to see my financial planner next week to go over everything related. I think it is possibly viable for my situation. I`m thinking of living large for my remaining term...

Twenty-five years?.....I`ve been divorced longer. 🙃 Congrats to you both though for doing the work. 🤘.

The last few years I`ve been watching the daily races on REV TV, great coverage. They also show MotoGP live and so far this year, WSBK on a one day delay. For sure worth the monthly cost.

There is serious truth in that, I`ve thought that for many years. The legal system is a mega-bucks industry.

Jack up the gas cap and slip a new R3 under it...J/K. As you know, old machines can be a royal pain. Could the ignition switch or side stand cut out switch, if equipped,, be suspect. How about the plug wire or cap?

Lets go Oilers! I`ll wear my Leafs ball cap pushing my mower later today, and I`ll sweat more than any Leaf did last night.

Displacement helps and age of the bike is important too. I looked at a `25 ZX-4rr though, still about 900/yr. For me. UnF`n believable.

Hey,.....Zarco won the French MotoGP last weekend. His home race, on a Honda too. Miracles can happen. 🙃 We`ll see tomorrow night.

That`s the story. My home and car are bundled with Desjardins at a good rate. If I add the bike it is hundreds more in total, that wasn`t the case when Desjardins was State Farm. If I bundle my home and car, with the bike, with Wawanesa, those policies are hundreds more. WTF?.....It`s like...

Heal up quick.

I`m 68, licensed since 1973, clean record, living in Kawartha Lakes. I`m riding a 2018 Kawi Z900ABS, bike is always garaged, ride around 5000 klicks annually. Currently a full coverage policy with Wawanesa for $1193/ year. My house and car are insured elsewhere. I`m up for renewal mid June, is...

Terrible news, RIP to the father and son. Generally the less government meddling in anything is good but perhaps it`s time for the provincial government to multi- media heavily bombard the inept, distracted, zero skills, apathetic, driving public regarding motorcycle awareness. The look twice...

The Ducati looks good. The BMW though.....yeah it works well but... Slab sided soulless Germanic King Tiger thing, undecided if that`s good or bad :p Hey,.. I`m largely German ancestry, that`s how I feel. A test ride on either would `prolly park one in my garage.

Don`t. But if you do, eye bleach on standby. Almost as hideous were the Low Slingers from Suzuki. I test rode the 1000 model, what a turd. Not a Suzuki knock, I had a hot-rodded `78 GS1000, one of the all time greats.

BMW added just a pinch of Suzuki Madura for the win.

California began a high speed train in `08, SF to LA. The cost was set at 33 billion, to be completed in`28. Now it`s up to 135B...and only partially complete in the late 2030`s. Here would be the same idea.
