    2026 Harley

    Nope... the 500 is gone. I had it from new in`85 and sold it to a guy who was rabid for one in`18. It was very difficult for me to ride with my back, hips, knees and hand issues. I`m currently on a Z900 Kawi but am even finding it a little cramped, great bike though, serious grunt, light...

    2026 Harley

    I`ve always liked the looks of the DesertX, elemental and basic purpose, Maybe `cause it reminds me of the great ole DT250 or XL250. How`s your owner experience with yours? BTW...see any articles and pics of the just out BMW F450 GS ? I think they`ve got a hit.

    2026 Harley

    That`s for sure a `26 Heritage paint job. They have a sh*t ton of modern tech on them but retain the classic style, the average buyers age must be around 50+. I don`t know how they get away from the jam they`re in, I thought the Pan-Am series might have turned things somewhat but dealers have...

    Waterloo Warbirds open house

    I know a woman who`s dad was a tail gunner in a Lancaster, balls of steel on those aircrew. I flew in the nose of the B17 "Sentimental Journey" a few years ago, out of Peterborough. Incredible...it was about 1/4 of the price of the Lanc. I`d say the B17 was the biggest contributor with the day...

    2026 Harley

    For an additional $1050 on that Heritage model. They do have a decent rider safety enhancements package however...$$. Lotsa` paint options too for a pile more coin.

    Anyone else becoming more reclusive?

    I`ve heard numerous psychiatrists, psychologists and other mental health professionals discuss people with actual psychosis, a break from reality, from social media use. Teenage girls talking suicide if their phone was taken from them.. for real. Rampant levels of anxiety and depression from...

    Anyone else becoming more reclusive?

    I`ve been that way for over 20 years. All my friends and family have died, long ago divorced, no girlfriend, no relentless chaos. Peace of mind and keep my sovereignty and wealth in a world gone mad. If I were any more reclusive, I`d be a little brown spider living in Arizona. ;)

    Glen Scott Guthrie

    Many have never heard of him, first man to be clocked at over 250 mph in an automobile and on a motorcycle. Holder of over 60 land speed records, huge mentor and inspiration to many LSR competitors. He passed peacefully from cancer on Oct. 29th, in Florida at 80 y.o. Rest in Peace racer.

    2026 Triumph Trident 800 launched

    Triumph is on a roll, no doubt. That bike is almost over lapping other models though. If they are using the iconic Trident name they should put that engine, suspension, brakes etc. into a `73 to `75 actual looking Trident. Real seating for a passenger, old style fenders, three into two exhaust...

    Where are the Toronto Jays fans

    Chow is the boss, she sure seemed gung-ho for the WS games, making a bet with LA mayor Karen Bass. Looks like she trusted her underlings and minions to get it right...nope. I guess they never figured on getting tens of thousands home or even thinking about extra innings. No surprise where daily...

    Saturday on SB 115...

    ...near Pontypool. Thirty-nine y.o, Bowmanville woman dies in single vehicle motorcycle crash. The OPP don`t have much info so far, looking for witnesses or dash cam info. Altercation with another vehicle that fled, mechanical, animal strike or avoidance or just ran off the road, very sad. 😢

    Considering a second bike

    Who are you insured with? That seems OK.

    How long does it take to pull the trigger on a bike purchase?

    Usually no time at all, 16 new bikes and a few used ones. The only one I`ve ever had any kind of delay on is the Low Rider ST, I looked at a new `25 in January. Initially the OTD price was a little daunting but as Trump got into full blown nutjob and spiraling down, that`s sadly, for me at...

    Where are the Toronto Jays fans

    On a related note...long tyme ago I knew a woman who was knocked out by a puck at her boyfriends game, gotta` pay attention. Thing is... in the previous couple weeks she got hit in the head with a beer bottle some idiot threw at a New Years Eve party in downtown TO. Prior to that she slammed the...

    Where are the Toronto Jays fans

    I heard a radio call in show last Thursday about the Jays tickets. A guy said he has a friend in LA who got a Dodgers ticket for their first back home game.......$57.
