You have kids and you drive places without stopping? That's surprising... I used to have some of those same concerns before I bought an EV but I found if you time your stops so you charge when you need a break it's not so bad. I've also found that frequent short charges are better than long...

Where is this cottage located that it would be so hard to get to? I've got over 38k on my Tesla and that includes lots of road trips all over Canada and the US, even in areas with minimal EV infrastructure like when I visited tahquamenon falls state park in michigan. There are very few places in...

But Tesla's CEO is endorsing Trump. How does that fit in with the right-wing hates EVs? lol https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-america-pac-donald-trump-344f1ecc9770c4e394fceb7bbbe2b237

Great ride report, looking forward to what happens next.

Tesla sold more than 5000 Cybertrucks in September and the average transaction price rose to $116,706, the highest since launch. https://electrek.co/2024/10/10/cybertruck-reached-its-highest-ever-average-transaction-price-in-september/

So the R7 was supposed to replace the R6 and this replaces the R1? Although I still see the R1 on Yamaha's site so maybe not? I'd like to see a slightly smaller/lighter FJR with this motor. With side cases and a tail rack, but still sporty looking.

Sounds fun, too bad I didn't start riding till it was shut down. Good luck.

Seems like every week there's a new article about some company discovering a new battery tech, but the range of EVs has stayed the same since the Tesla Model S came out more than a decade ago.

I thought this was reasonably priced till I saw the mileage https://www.kijiji.ca/v-sport-touring/red-deer/2005-fjr-1300/1701361090

I got the Kobalt KT1015, it's on sale right now at Rona https://www.rona.ca/en/product/kobalt-10-in-carbide-tipped-blade-15-amp-portable-quick-folding-stand-table-saw-kt10152-41095003 It comes with a stand that folds up for easy storage. The fence and the mitre gauge aren't great for fine...

Likely intentionally crippled so european a2 licence holders can buy it. It's possible the north american version will have more power. From another source:

I've always liked the aprilia dorsoduro.

I wonder what would happen if the motorcycle's tire hits a big pothole?

There are tesla superchargers in minden and bancroft. When I drove to Ottawa I did one short charging stop in bancroft. Or you could just take the 401, would probably need to take 2 short (20 min) charging stops. I got over 30,000 kms on my 1 year old Tesla, mostly from road trips, and making...

Anyone know if there's any more harley demos this summer? I can't find their list of demos on their website for Canada.

I was at bracebridge yamaha a couple days ago, I really liked how they did their demo, the ride was nice and long and included all kinds of roads (twisty, highways, city), also gave out free burgers and drinks. I demoed the T7 and thought it was a great bike, never got to take it off road but on...

I'd be up for it if it's the week of Aug 5, I have that entire week off.

Where? I can't find it. My local CT won't accept either tires or oil. Another CT a bit further away does.

Aren't maintenance records easily faked? Anyone could scribble a bunch of stuff in a notebook and print off some fake receipts.

I had a dash cam on every car I had (up until my tesla which doesn't need it) and I would always wire it into the fuse box. It's much cleaner than having wires hanging down to your 12v outlet. Just find a fuse that is switched (only on when the car is on) and use a fuse tap. It doesn't take long...
