You get what you pay for, but even the best battery is easily ruined by poor maintenance/treatment.

Just get a later model and keep the stock muffler on it. Agreed on the pricing, good value on a middleweight bike, especially if you can get the panniers with it.

360 degree parallel twins do sound awful. Even an Akrapovic pipe couldn't fix that. I got rid of mine because it just wasn't reliable at all. Left me stranded a couple times.

Yup, Audi or VW at a wrecker. Bosch EV-1 connector I believe.

Good torque, very fuel efficient but I found the stock suspension lacking. There were quite a few recalls on the earlier builds including final drive bearings. If you do look at one run the ViN with a dealership to check.

Had a site visit yesterday, first guy found the issue immediately because he used to build decks. Water is coming in through deck header plate attached to siding. My gazebo drips water right onto deck then the water travels down header plate and through lag bolts into interior. No caulk, no...

Alright, I don't feel anywhere near as overwhelmed as I did at first. Got a plan of action now. I'll update the post when it's all done, many thanks on the input, rounds on me.

Would there be any point in contacting the original builder? They're still around town. I let one neighbour know about my issues, he said he'd rather not know what's behind the drywall. Other neighbour is on vacation but I'll give him a heads up. This may potentially affect the whole...

I wish I could take Jeremy up on his offer but I'm no longer in the GTA, I can see Detroit from my house... Yes, it's a downspout. I have an 8 foot extension on the bottom of it away from the foundation as are the other ones. Definitely a z-cap on the brick, I just double-checked. I soaked...

Trials, there is flashing protruding from under the brick, between that and the foundation, so they at least did that right.

Appreciate the input so far. Insurance adjuster just left. Said no coverage as it's not sudden damage but over a long time. He believes the paper between the brick and OSB has been holding moisture and not breathing. Said it should be replaced with Tyvek. That means all 4 walls needs to be...

Raised Ranch on poured concrete foundation, ground outside is approx 4 inches below sill plate. There's a brick fascia on the other side that goes up to the top of the i-beam, then turns to siding. I was able to pull the OSB apart with my fingers. The tar paper that's between the brick and...

Sorry, I worked 12 hour shifts all weekend. I'll get those pics up tonight.

Ok, so this is a job for professionals, I'll start calling around on Monday. So basically if I call a renovation expert, they should be able to handle all the other tasks like architectural advice and permits?

Got an outside wall of my house with water intrusion damage. Brick fascia, OSB on studs and pink fibreglass. Looks like a 20 foot section of complete wall will need to be replaced as OSB is rotten and studs are wet/soft. Looks like it's been going on for years, house is 18 years old so no...

Sorry, I should have been more specific, Mobil Racing 4T for motorcycles. Definitely don't use automotive oil, unless you want a slipping clutch.

WalMart used to carry T6, try CanTire and PartsSource for Amsoil. Or just go Mobil, you're not running an air-cooled or race engine.

I signed up for a year free, it was waved through a reseller. I ordered a lot of stuff though. What's the local CanTire or PartsSource price? Check Kijiji, sometimes you can find a seller on there, I did.

I wasn't able to find a definitive review on their new motorcycle helmets, but looking at the features I think they are in the ballpark price range. I'd love to try the Atlas Hellfire, I think that looks pretty sweet. Visor prices are decent but I don't see a photochromic option like I have on...

I was just looking at Ruroc, I had seen a posting on Reddit about them. I like the bluetooth module location, but I have 2 new helmets as of last year. I'll keep an eye on them.
