    5 years out of a Yuasa AGM battery?

    GP Bikes probably stocks them. There is also... General PDP Template Before you protest, lemme just say that I have a CT battery in my TL1000S. It was a "ride now or later" decision, and I have zero complaints about it. Considering my $200 Yuasa battery lasted only 5 years I'm happier with the...

    Called him, he will not patch a "Z-rated tire"

    Brantford Motorcycles has said they might do it, so that's one.

    Looking for a shop to patch a tire in 2025

    Rear. I still would greatly prefer a patch over a plug... if I can still find someone to do it

    Looking for a shop to patch a tire in 2025

    Looking for someone that will patch a tire, preferably in Niagara Region but I'm realizing that I may have to travel farther to get this done. Last person to do it for me was Ted Rose like 15 years ago lol

    Rear brake failure

    I'm wondering if you have a leak, though. Where did all that air come from in a year?

    Have you been riding it since then, or did you just ride it for the first time this month?

    5 years out of a Yuasa AGM battery?

    I have had my 919 fail to start twice within a month. First time I yanked the battery, fully charged it up on a CTEK charger, put it back in, rode it, then let it sit a week or two. It just barely failed to start both times (turning over but not lighting off). Yanked it again, charged it again...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    *cough* I suppose the two are both spares to the third bike, a ZX-11 that hasn't run in... some years. Anywho! The 919 got going after only a little charger therapy, but gonna hafta investigate that a little further. Will charge it up fully over the weekend and see about getting it tested next...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Have had two bikes for a while now. Didn't really intend to, but selling one of them has been a low priority, and sometimes it is handy to have a "spare". Struck out on both of them today though. TL1000S rear tire is totally flat, and 919 wouldn't start (suspicious of the tiny battery...

    I'm surprised! I expected them to have been completely dissolved two years ago already.

    Who is this guy? Sikorsky S-76C C-FBLU

    They ran it?? What day was that?

    Who is this guy? Sikorsky S-76C C-FBLU

    That one *might* be C-FKUR as it is a H130 currently listed for sale on HeliTrader, and the livery on that sale listing matches FMJ's photo. The current owner might have a PIA (privacy ICAO address) because I can't find any evidence of it flying recently. Or they just don't turn ADS-B on

    Can I wear an ECE2206 helmet on track if it has a ratchet/Micrometric Buckle?

    Just looked at the rules for KSR, Pro 6, Shannonville, CSBK and VRRA and none of them specify anything about the chin strap. KSR and Shannonville will even let you use a DOT helmet. DOT, ECE, and Snell all specify that the chin strap is basically capable of decapitating you

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    That press photo is diabolical, that rider must be less than five feet tall. Someone buy a bike at auction for a "project" and is now having second thoughts?

    I think I might have met her on a GTAM group ride 20 years ago... rest in peace.

    I really hope that extra mirror is screwed on because the glass in the original one is broken

    Is this AI

    So I'm not gonna say that video is or is not AI, but the ET9 does have fully active suspension. And it is in fact a direct evolution of the Bose system. https://www.motortrend.com/news/bose-active-suspension-lives-as-electrohydraulic-skyride-on-nio-et9
