    Value of sv650?

    Asking and sell price are two different things. A 2008 in good shape with 20k on it is definitely worth $4k unless it needs tires, brakes or chain/sprockets. Of course people ask $5k, but that's just to protect them from lowballers. I think there's one on here for sale since last fall - check...

    Good Wheel Motors, Toronto...Anyone heard of them?

    But I think they offered to make you a key at the time, didn't they? Can't remember, it was a few pages ago.

    Travel Medical Insurance and Paranoia

    Many policies make you pay up front with your credit card and then take months to reimburse you. CAA travel insurance does not. THEY pay the costs for you as they are incurred, and coverage is comparable to the others. Shop around but compare all the features. I totally agree with others, don't...

    Things not to do when buying/selling a bike

    Feeler = Testing the Water(s) = Hate to Sell my Baby = Time to Move On = Want to see some one Use this Beautiful Bike = probably too conflicted to be able to strike a reasonable deal. But you never know, there are deals to be had on Kijiji every day.

    Things not to do when buying/selling a bike

    I really am convinced that some of the ads are placed by people that have been "forced" to sell by their wife/gf/SO/dominatrix. No price, crappy pix or pix stolen from another ad, vague descriptions including "mint" and "custom" together in the same sentence makes me believe that they NEVER...

    confused about realtor games...

    Stick with it, could be a while before the right person walks in the door. Just have it clear in your head what you will accept, and be ready to push off the stuff below it. Don't let the agents muddy the water, don't forget for them a fast sale at a low price is good because they can move on to...

    Are there court fees for parking tickets in Mississauga

    So just scrape the snow away so that the lines are visible and take a picture. Take it with you to court.

    Bmw f800r

    The earlier belt drive models (not the R but the S and ST) had issues with the rear hub that has just now been recognized as a warranty issue. For that reason I would stay with the R. As far as wind protection, the slightly larger "sport" screen on the R is quite effective, of course not as...

    Pro6 vs RidersChoice vs TMP Open Lapping days

    Also note that if your schedule permits weekday track sessions are normally less expensive than weekends. Sometimes less populated too.

    what is this worth? need help. purchasing privately.

    I'd take someone with me that knows bikes. You know the seller, so another opinion would help everyone get to a realistic number. How old are the tires? Does it need a chain and sprockets? Brake pads? When was the brake fluid last changed? I see these problems all the time on used bikes...

    Old tire?

    Softer compound/race tires will do this - some even come with stickers stating that the tire should not be mounted below 5 degrees C. So if that tire was flexed cold it could fracture like that. Seen it a few times.

    .....

    Don't forget, if you lower the front you will also lose ground clearance. Lots of things to consider.

    Icemageddon 2013

    Rock salt might be sold out everywhere but a lot of places (Lowes, Home Depot) have water softener salt. Same stuff minus the rocks and dirt. Of course they will deny it and say it will ruin your driveway, but really - 99.7% pure salt, better than rock salt really. Definitely better than nothing.

    Rear Spool Bung Replcement

    You're right, they are held on with the axle. Why not call Z1, maybe they have a swingarm kicking around that they could cut a piece off of. Or just drill and tap a piece of aluminum and weld it on.

    Rear Spool Bung Replcement

    I think R&G have adjusters with spools for your bike too, and they are cheaper than Lightech. But maybe Z1 could fix you up.

    CanadaPost returns my package without attempting delivery!

    Sounds like you are waiting for the package, right? Also sounds like maybe what's written on the package is not correct or was misread. They may try again. They have done it to me as a seller and it turned out that the street address had a small spelling error, like dr. instead of rd. enough...

    Shopping list for 2014 track season

    Thanks Doozer, even if it is Wikipedia! LOL. Anyway, your reference says the skin depth for 60Hz is 8.5 mm (maybe 0 gauge), and that's greater than the conductor thickness for extension cords. OK, so you made Eel's point that it's frequency related not voltage, I was wrong. But like I said...
