    Dealer Demo Ride: "If you break it, you buy it!"

    I actually like the styling touch of the quadruple exit muffler. I never understood how the XDiavel sold enough to justify its continued existence. But maybe it barely costs them anything to offer it. Something that puts me off about the Diavel (and maybe this is just a general modern Ducati...

    Quick Shifter

    Marketable. It honestly really annoys me because there's a cost to that feature, and it's edging out other features I would rather have. Like the ZX-4RR has a quickshifter but not any of kind of damping adjustment on the front forks. The ZX-4R doesn't even have preload adjustment on the forks...

    DVP and Gardiner close for bicycles

    Two eastbound lanes of the Burlington Skyway will also be closed. The Lincoln Alexander Parkway was also going to be closed, but they wisely moved the closure to avoid gridlocking Hamilton. https://www.burlington.ca/en/news/closure-qew-niagara-bound-may23.aspx...

    To be avoided at all cost

    Hope you're recovering okay and that whatever caused it isn't too serious

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    That is a good way to get run over

    Carney Scam, not political

    It does show some underlying cultural disconnect though between me and the scammer. You think anybody wants investment advice from the prime minister? If you did five seconds of research you'd turn up people to use like Galen Weston, Lawrence Stroll, Larry Tanenbaum. Hell you could even just...

    Carney Scam, not political

    YouTube is comically bad at screening these out. In the early days of this stupid scam I'd see the same AI video of "Elon Musk's" investment secret for weeks. It comes and goes in waves. Sometime they pick a head-scratching celebrity to use as their figurehead, I'd name some other examples but...

    Does Thin Oil Destroy Engines?

    I think this video is the best explanation of multi-grade oils I've seen yet

    Strange things you have seen online for sale?

    There isn't much that I need right now. Am keeping an eye out for spare parts for my car, but they are few and far between. Although! This reminds me of something. I kept seeing these really cheap on FB: https://www.costco.ca/cat-lithium-cube-jump-starter-1750a.product.4000149922.html That...

    Strange things you have seen online for sale?

    I've gotten sucked into browsing Facebook Marketplace for long periods of time... some wild stuff on there. Apparently people think a lot of miserable late 80's GM trash is collectible, but of course it goes way beyond vehicles. Last notable item I can think of is a supposedly genuine Spitfire prop

    I thought we were having a pretty good run of sunny weather, honestly

    Internet is down

    I've been with Cogeco ever since they expanded into my neighbourhood - I have had a few outages with them, but they've all been for local reasons. Interestingly they have repeatedly had issues with copper thieves cutting the fibre. Before that it was Bell, which I continue to be happy to not be...

    Right? For having only 1000km on the clock it sound like they were rough on it

    Suzuki s40

    I think the S40 is elegant in its simplicity - there's not a whole lot that can go wrong with it. And they're nice looking. It's not going to have a "pile of power" though, absolute best case scenario is 34hp. Now, I do believe that can be enough power, but if you go in with expectations of it...

    Can am canyon adventure trike

    I dunno, it almost makes sense to me. The thing is most fire roads I picture in my mind have two tire tracks. So the rear wheel is going to be riding on the uneven middle section the whole time... I see enough Spyders pass through the neighbourhood to know that Can-Am has sufficient customers...

    Anyone riding with a heart condition??

    Funny that this thread comes up the morning after I have a dream about a doctor giving me a heart monitor
