    Indian motorcycles sold

    I agree the bike attracted different buyers to the brand but it's hard to keep making the bike in this market if no ones buying it. I thought it was a beauty and would be fun but I don't really have use/time for one and therefor didn't buy one either. Lot's of us loved the bike but never gave...

    Indian motorcycles sold

    Sad days are ahead imo for that brand. I give them a few years before bankruptcy. Honestly with the way the toy market is these days I'm happy I've downsized part of my garage over the past year as buying anything new is a risk that the brand may not be here in a few years. How much longer will...

    Considering a second bike

    Samesies. I put 40,000km trouble-free on my 1200S Ducati Multistrada and it's one of the few bikes I truly miss and would happily buy another. It's by far the one with the most character and the only one that I felt that there was something special about it (likely that every piece is truly...

    I just bought a 1984 Honda V30 Interceptor

    The bigger it gets the more stuff you fill it up with so it just never gets too big. Then you start going minimalist (to a degree) and start charging rent. Anyone need winter storage for their bike? ;)

    Considering a second bike

    I've driven the VFR, later Gen FZ1, and most various sizes of Ducati Streetfighter/Monster/Multi/Hypermotard/Hyperstrada/Diavel. If I wanted a bike that fit your needs it'd be the Monster 1200S. That would be around your budget with super low mileage ones a bit higher. Lots of character...

    Considering a second bike

    Passenger capable? All day comfy or just 1-2hrs? Luggage? As Lightcycle pointed out, half your list is almost as porky as your RT. Try to take a few different bikes out to decide what suits your wants and then narrow down from there with options that match what you liked.

    What's your time worth?

    I'd chat to a bot over a flesh tech support from Xplornet any day.

    Daily sports car?

    I took out an F-Type R Vert a couple weeks ago at a reputable dealer that had around 45k on it and was shocked at how poor the interior of the car had held up. It was a earlier version and I know they made some switchgear upgrades but buttons showed a lot of wear, steering wheel cover had...

    Go to automotive cleaning products.

    All depends if you're cleaning or protecting, restoring, what the surface is, if you want it left matte or a certain level of shine, etc. For tires I use Meguiars Ultimate Insane tire spray. It'll leave a high-gloss shine, won't sling, lasts a decent timeframe, and a can isn't overly expensive...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I feel a big help is using one of those along with (I don't what they're called) those punch screwdrivers that turn when you hit them. Whatever they're called I'm going to order one for when it's needed (thankfully not needed......yet).

    Daily sports car?

    Friend of mine used to have one of the true Mini's. He took me out in it a few times but we're both in the 230lb region so it was a bit of a clown car experience. Fun though.

    TV shows currently watching

    Anyone But You - I didn't know what Sydney Sweeney looked like before this movie but it's basically 1.5hrs of Sydney's (and other girls) boobs in various state of undress. Good rom-com if that's what you want.

    2025 Day Trips!

    I've always found Ardoch Road colours turn a bit sooner than other places. Maybe it's the type of tree's with all the silver and reds but I love that road in the Fall.

    Algonquin Park Fall Colours

    Came through NB yesterday and the colours there are excellent now.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    I have never driven an EV but I’m curious on peoples thoughts about EV sports cars. Obviously the acceleration is there but I wonder if the character and driving enjoyment would be as well. I’ve had a few sports cars and will likely buy another but I wonder if a nicely powered sportscar EV that...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Cleaning out some property in NS also meant stopping in for a mandatory dram. I’ve been here many times over the years.

    New Ducati Hypermotard V2

    Power/performance is so great now that having more of it isn’t worth paying new prices for as it can’t be used by 99% of the buyers. Sure there’s bragging rights in owning it but that fades as you get older/wiser (and maybe grumpier?). Bikes and cars need something to intrigue new buyers and...

    Pickup Trucks

    2000km drive to eastern Canada averaged 11.2L/100km in the F150. Was in the 10’s but the big hills and construction in NB/NS dropped it and I wasn’t driving very fuel efficiently either. Even more comfy than doing it in our Odyssey. Pretty good mileage imo especially with the more aggressive...

    Thoughts on the Honda NT1100....

    I haven't ridden the NT but I have ridden the AT version. The motor gets the job done but the owner of that bike lusts after my KTM 1290R in comparison and wishes he could have gotten it instead. Others will say the 1100 has "Plenty of pep for me!". I don't know you but if you're one to ask if...

    Thoughts on the Honda NT1100....

    It would be worth checking to see if GP Bikes is going to get one in.
