Me too, please.

Are you firm on a model from the Japanese mfrs? They are well built, reliable and priced relatively well. But ..... Have you given a thought to BeeEm's K1600 or R1250? Perhaps, the Indian Challenger, Roadmaster or Pursuit? Or even the Guzzi V100 or V85? Good luck in your choice!

Rubber on the road, more kms than the measly 3K done in 2023. My preferred ride is a one day back road jaunt and home before night. (I know it is kinda tame!)

That is so true! It is a pain to get the first start, but after that it fires up. I found that using the snake-oil (my terminology for those gas additives) doesn't help. Drain the tank and float bowl , clean and gap the plug in spring and put in fresh gas the following winter and that makes it...

Glad to see that there is another interest in Military history here, thank you for your valid comment! That was the "escape" clause used by the organizers of that ill-fated raid. Military strategists have said that such a rehearsal will have groomed the opposing force on what to expect and to...

Just finished reading a fact-novel on the situation in 1939 Palestine, not much has changed in 2023. The actors may have changed, the scenario is the same. Ditto with the novel "Kursk", the war time strategy then in Ukraine is much the same as it is today, right down to the wrestling over the...

Hah, just like another auto maker - they never have "recalls", they only have "upgrades". Semantics!

https://motorcyclesupershow.ca/ $27.91 for a ticket - is it worth it? The big players have not put on an attendance for the last couple of years, ticket prices are up and has it become a flea market of sorts? (The last show I had been to was pre-pandemic)

I use a bungee cord to keep the lid firmly shut and the 'coons out.

Any idea what the GTAM app is named as on Google Play Store? A search for "GTAM" does not bring up the relevant app. Thanks!

The model designation is a mouthful! Here is BMW's publicity release ..... https://www.bmw-motorrad.ca/en/models/heritage/r12.html#/section-feel-free-to-let-it-roll

Read about this unusual fork design that may even make it into production. The engineering is fine, but the looks? https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/new-tech/cfmoto-girder-fork/

The phone guy at the store told me that the difference between 4G and 5G speeds is only evident with hard core gaming or binge streaming and that too it may not be a whiz-bang difference.

Sometime back I had approached a Honda dealer for an issue with the Civic, explaining that there was a TSB for the very same issue in the US. I was told that "that is in the US and not here in Canada". Same car, same issue and a geographical division dictates that the problem is a non-issue...

Me too, seriously considered a Volvo but when I heard of the servicing costs and explanation thereof, I walked away. Example: $400 and the reason why is "Volvo has so many software modules and we need to check and update these at a service. Huh? Other manufacturers provide software updates as a...

Heard that Mexico city is experiencing a water shortage and for a couple of hours a day an open faucet dispenses nothing.

Nice looking bike except for the headlamp and the fake air scoops.
