    Neighbourhood changes?

    Welfare is ridiculous. If someone needs welfare, imo, they should be monitored. Including weekly meetings with an official to discuss their application and where they have applied. That's very little effort to justify needed assistance. If you are willing to do that, then it's no wonder you...

    Neighbourhood changes?

    I would say you are very lucky, because it hit Hamilton and Brantford about 8 years ago. I've seen a guy on my security footage trying to enter my neighbour's house, then mine, before seeing the camera and running off. That was about 3-4 years ago. The cameras don't work anymore, but this past...

    Buying gear from Europe

    I never trust those automated calls. In those situations I hang up, call FedEx (or the bank, or however is calling) and access it that way. There are a LOT of scammers that pretend to be legit businesses. They spam everyone one with "You need to pay a fee for FedEx, press 1 to continue, now give...

    First step in privatizing healthcare?

    The thing is, we now pay more taxes than ever before, but we get less in return. OHIP coverage is dropping, health care systems are all understaffed, and our tax money is going to China, Ukraine, foreign workers, and the pockets of politicians and their friends (at a much higher rate than ever...

    First step in privatizing healthcare?

    My wife works for two private hospitals in two different cities. She's worked a lot of short-handed shifts, I'd estimate 1-in-5 was the usual, but over the last couple months it has become the norm. If she's lucky, she WON'T be short-staffed once a week. Our system is getting worse, not better.

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    Okay, when summer riding with my 03, and with the 01 last winter, as soon as it would hold an idle without choke (usually 30 seconds to a minute), the bikes run great. No hesitation. What you describe is similar to how my 03 runs in the cold, so I guess it's not that bad or unusual? I'm just...

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    I've only ever used the choke until the bike can idle without it. Is that not how it's meant to be used? (not sarcasm) I've never been formally taught anything motorcycle related. I'm self-taught, and have no friends who ride.

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

    It looks fantastic! Great job. 100% is only realistic with pros that have many hours of experience. 95% is better than I would expect from the average handyman.

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    This was done last summer. New plugs, oil change and carbs cleaned. Did I miss anything?

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    I'm at work, and don't have the bike with me today. This is the closest I have to a photo of the headers. The bike with the front facing the camera is the 03, and you can see the cross section of the header like on the on Relax posted. So it seems it's slip-on. I wondered what slip-on meant...

    acf-50 and heat

    I assume the warning about heat is for the liquid form being flammable before application. Once applied it's clearly okay.

    acf-50 and heat

    Someone shared this with my today. I haven't had time to watch it yet, but it might answer your question.

    Okay, my headers go 4-1, then into the baffle (muffler?)

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    I bought the 03 in 2008, and it had the Hindle on it when I bought it.

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    Personally, I like the sound better than the Hindle, but it doesn't seem to be any louder. I've never liked loud.

    Cold Weather Running Question (and history)

    I found a photo from the day I bought it. This is the exhaust on the 01. Anyone familiar with D & D?
