    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Wait a few more years and used F150L`s should be reasonably cheap. You will have to cough up 36 G`s, USD, for a extended range battery if the stocker is toast, and another 700 U.S. bucks to install. It was mentioned that a new gas F150 engine was just over 13 Grand U.S. to swap out. So says a...

    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    Years ago at Mosport I saw the Team Obsolete BSA Rocket 3. I believe it was the Dick Mann Daytona 200 winner. I think Dave Roper was riding, hard on the gas outta` 10 with that open megaphone gave me goosebumps. The XR 750, not the flattrack version, was awesome too. The TO RC-166/250 six still...

    Risk understanding and management

    Set the wayback machine, I`d forgotten about him. I saw him jump at the CNE on his Kawi MX`er, gotta` be around 35 years ago? That barrel drop stunt that killed him was a bad screw up.

    Ducati Is Recalling Certain Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2s

    What?....and put your phone down for 5 seconds? Ever see a car ad in decades that mentions the engine, chassis, suspension, brakes, horsepower etc? It`s all connectivity out the wazoo and every electronic nanny to save your inept, dumb arse.

    Ducati Is Recalling Certain Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2s

    No kidding about that. My 750F was up between the tach/speedo, every bike I`ve owned, I kept the key separate. I mentioned this to a woman I saw a while ago with about a half-pound of keys on the big car key fob.. not a good idea. I knew a guy who grabbed a hot pipe fishing around for the key...

    The meathead will not be down for breakfast

    He was brilliant at his craft, his earlier years on All In The Family were great. Murdered in Brentwood, like Simpson`s wife and Goldman.... It was OJ`s son who asked him to borrow the Bronco and OJ said.." Go axe your mother". Too soon? I`ll see myself out.

    Ducati Is Recalling Certain Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2s

    Not as exciting as the fuse issue I had on my new `75 CB750. Something wonky in the harness, Honda never did get it sorted and it continued to pop the main, killing all power and lights, once in a rare while. The time it popped as I was entering the off ramp on 401 W. to Weston Rd. was exciting...

    Does Toronto actually have a plan?

    I`ve paid my property tax forever on auto withdraw, 10 month plan, first of the month with Dec. and Jan. excluded. All utilities on the same plan with different withdraw dates...works just fine.

    John Lennon

    Not to be forgotten, today marks the 2004 onstage murder of "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott. Once called the "nicest guy in rock" by Dave Grohl, powerhouse guitarist from Pantera and Damageplan. An incredible talent and genuine and humble good person. I feel more of a loss with Dime than Lennon, but...

    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    I`ve kept a bike from 2 years to 35+ years. Most are in the 5 to 10 year range, 19 motorcycles so far. I`m closing in on 70 years old and have lately been looking at the `26 H-D Pan Am. Why not?

    And he`s out under a different name, living among us. The gator pond should have been the answer.

    Prostate cancer update....

    Correct about the olde tyme farmers, they were hard people, I had a number in my family. I`ve had a number of scopes, I`d take that over poop on a stick if you can arrange it. Somehow I figured you are around my age,68, wouldn`t your grandfather be family history enough to qualify? The scope...

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    Don`t recall who said it, but it went like this..."Racing motorcycles makes heroin addiction look like a vague wish for something salty". 🏍️ 🏍️ 🏍️ 🏍️

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    I saw that movie on a double bill, with "Chrome and Hot Leather" at the 400 drive in. Funny that I never wanted to jump over buses or follow my inner outlaw on a hardtail Panhead chopper. :p
