Yes, I have one called Topsider. It's metal and well made. Had it about 10yrs now and use it many times a year from lawnmowers, snowmobiles (chaincases) to cars to snowblower and generator. Saves me a ton of time and mess.

Yup, that's the one.

If anyone's interested in a VERY well kept/sorted 2019 KTM 300XC my buddy is selling his in the Port Hope area for $4900 which is a steal. It does have lots of hours on it but it's always kept in new condition physically/mechanically. I don't have the link but it's on Marketplace.

I put the bike on the center and then add enough weight on the rear rack that the front comes off the ground. Remove front and put car jack or stands under a fork leg then remove the rear tire. Same process for dirtbike although I use a jack-stand under it.

My JD E180 tractor was slowing when going up hills so I swapped in a new drive belt. YT videos all complained about what a hard job it was (mostly taking out a belt guard bolt). This people have obviously never worked on anything proper difficult as this task was a cinch.

There's a 2015 Multi 1200 in Clarington for under $10k (looks like it needs a desmo service though ($800). Includes full bags/etc. I wouldn't snooze at a 950 version if you're mostly riding without a passenger.

I have Tubliss on my 300 as do most of my riding buddies. Never had a failure and it works excellent. I use my KTM supplied air pump for the forks to top up the Tubliss when needed. The tubes aren’t expensive and because they’re inside a protective plastic/rubbery thing they don’t see any wear...

Listed beauty Africa Twin in Oshawa is now at $9800……

Rewatched Guardians of the Galaxy 2 last night and I don't think I was overly keen on it the first time but loved it this time around (loved the first one also).

+1 for Stoeger in Oshawa. I fell in love with the Beretta 1301 at Accuracy Plus in Peterborough but it was a bit out of my price range. Decided to call Stoeger and asked a price on it from them and ended up ordering it over the phone that day. Highly recommend Stoeger. Firearms Outlet Canada...

Not to add fire to this but a very clean, never down, Africa Twin with ~15,000km was just listed for sale near Oshawa on Marketplace for $10,000 including nice additions like alum bags and nice (real) skidplate. Old guy claiming it's too heavy for him now.

I left that group long ago ( I think I was in in for maybe a week before leaving not that I do much socials anyways).

I'm with Lightcycle, I tell everyone I like my KTM 300 because it tries to kill me every time I try to ride it (and have said that about my 1290 as well). Maybe on the track I'd want something to make me better than I am and saves me.

My riding buddy has an AT. He likes it and says it does everything just fine but it doesn't excite him in any way and he lusts after my 1290SAR as well as others. I like the AT and having ridden it I find it capable but agree it's a good looking capable bike but exciting it's not. I had it on my...

Yeah this is likely what I'll do. Bike has tpms so it'll tell me if it starts to go south. I'll just torture it for a bit with some offroading and wear it out quicker.

That's what was on my mind as well. I took a second reading after 12hrs and it didn't drop any. That could change when ridden though with some flex. Makes the decision that much more difficult.

Found this today. Is it a replace right away or see if it leaks? It’s tubeless. Nail is mostly through the knob and I’m not sure yet if it actually punctured through to the inside but it’s certainly close to sidewall. Nail came out easy and I couldn’t feel any air loss but I’ll give it 1/hrs...

I dig around the stump a foot or so below ground level then take a cut with the chainsaw. As long as it's a few inches below ground level is good then I cover with dirt. I'm careful to brush away any dirt before I make the cut. If it's a large diameter stump I'll often make a cut down the middle...

He could also try raising his life insurance payout. Wife: "Sure go ahead and rent that scooter. Oh and I booked you some skydiving lessons as well"

You run out of area with a ATV/plow after a few large snowfalls create banks. Just get a good snowblower (a $3000 Ariens will easily and quickly take care of a huge driveway). Talk to the neighbours and ask about what internet is available and if they ever run out of water (well depth and...
