    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    So Polestar is now accepted at Tesla Superchargers. I got my Lectron adapter yesterday ... hoping to return the favour to all those Teslas that were taking up a J1772 spot way back to when I had my Volts ... haha, payback is a b!tch!

    New Ducati on the way ?

    Yep, Desmo is gone on this engine ... seems the way Ducati is moving as I'm sure people are fed up with doing valve jobs every 12k ... right @mimico_polak ?

    New Ducati on the way ?

    The new SF V2 almost makes the Monster unnecessary in the line-up.

    V2 reimagined as Ducati's new 890cc V-twin motor is the lightest to ever leave the Bologna factory

    You're correct. I was getting the Testatretta 11 degree engine mixed up with the Testastretta DVT engine (the latter being the big L-twin that the Diavel's used to have).

    V2 reimagined as Ducati's new 890cc V-twin motor is the lightest to ever leave the Bologna factory

    The older 937 engine has variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust cams ... the new one says this: "There’s now an Intake Variable Timing system too ..." so it sounds like only on the intake cams. Guess they need to leave room for improvements in any future gen versions.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    How can this and FSD especially still be allowed as a feature on public roads? Is Musk greasing some palms at the NHTSA!?

    V2 reimagined as Ducati's new 890cc V-twin motor is the lightest to ever leave the Bologna factory

    Yours wasn't quite what I was looking for so I ended up getting the 1 at GP Bikes ... it's getting a desmo done and a new rear tire included in the price. Looking forward to having it back in the stable again ... fun bike and I can do the dirt roads again. I ended buying the Comp Werkes...

    No Desmo on this new engine, springs instead.

    V2 reimagined as Ducati's new 890cc V-twin motor is the lightest to ever leave the Bologna factory

    Not sure what more I see in this over the existing 937 cc Testastretta engine that's in my Monster from a performance standpoint, anyway. The less frequent service intervals are a definite plus for sure ... a bit lighter.

    900,000 students coming in…

    This crap is unbelievable ... I'm still, in my own mind, wondering what benefits these Trudeau programs bring to our great country. Whatever miniscule amount there is has GOT TO BE hugely overshadowed by these scams and corruption. My European parents who immigrated here (along with me at 1 yr...

    2024 Day Trips

    In hindsight, today would've been the better day as roads are dry ... bike got splattered but I had time to wash both bikes when I got home as it's been on my to-do list for a while.

    2024 Day Trips

    May be a last minute decision for me to take the day off work ... where are you? I'm in NE Brampton.

    Resonator delete is my new fav. exhaust mod!

    With that link pipe, it's got character ... and storage possibilities ... not sure about the gas range but it's gotta be better than the Scrambler. Seat height seems low enough and there are usually options to lower it further. For when you sell the Scrambler maybe.:)

    Those like on your video may be an option for @mimico_polak ??

    Resonator delete is my new fav. exhaust mod!

    It sounds like a v-twin (my fave configuration) but when I looked it up I see it's a parallel twin ... must have a 270 firing order.
