I could see the power outlet thing working at a place like SMP where they have an organized paddock. A bit like a campground, they could have a row of power poles, 50 ~ 75 feet part running between the rows. At a place like CTMP or Calabogie it might be difficult, only the perimeter could be...

It's a 2 week long event. The Isle of Man is in the Irish Sea, between England and Ireland. Take a ferry from Liverpool or Lancaster (England), or, Dublin or Belfast (Ireland). Check Steam Packet. Book early. (now is probably too late for next year)

There is another interesting trick you can do the Harry's LapTimer. Export lap data to a .kml file. Open the file in Google Earth. http://postimg.org/image/kbpo3gy1r/ Each dot is a GPS reading. The bars to the outside of the track indicate acceleration, bars to the inside deceleration (or...

This bike is not meant to compete with anything on the street. The power level in North America is due to reduced RPM to meet sound level legislation, with Honda claiming that there isn't enough space for the required silencers. I just can't see this as a street bike anyway, they same way I see...

You guy might have come across VW's solution to this mess; the 8000 lbs GVWR Golf TDI.

Your bike has the typical 3 phase shunt type regulator. (Later GoldWings have automotive style alternators). The shunt type regulator means that no matter what the electrical load, the alternator will always produce maximum output with whatever excess created shunted (shorted) by the regulator...

Possibly the "Ural", by way of Germany, Russia, China, Russia (again). Late '30's to present, while it doesn't look it, there have been minor updates along the way.

I did a set of Gold Wing carbs a few years ago. I don't recall what year, late 80's probably. The carbs I did were a little different; The slides don't rely on a diaphragm, instead they have machined surface with compound grooves forming a labyrinth seal with a tight tolerance between the...

You don't need to be far off the beaten path in Ontario to have little choice in Internet Providers. My office is yards North of Hwy 7 in Woodbridge; only Bell has services, only aDSL is available 4/.25 Friend is on Hwy 48 at Major Mac; no wired service, only cell providers On the other hand...

It looks like Tuesday is now full track, so, I'm going to try for Monday/Tuesday.

There was a TV show shooting a pilot at Calabogie a few years ago. You can check them out on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rtad1pvkwE8 They had a drone and have included a few clips in the videos. For the most part they kept the drone stationary over the paddock or the grass...

Yes, I'm there Sunday & Monday. The lunch shack has been open for morning coffee and muffins this year.

Not that I've ever been to any of these places, but I've heard there are a few choices. Calabogie full service restaurants

I'm booked for Sunday & Monday.

Jay's race fuel = potato chips.

Add a single link and two rivet links. (Every time I go to Mosport DDT it costs me 3 rivet links)

Metals Supermarket, Scarborough or Vaghan. T21120 or T21316, 1020 DOM A513 Round Steel Tube should do the trick. (It won't be light weight) It has a good surface and can be polished & painted.

Taxi

If you reread Fox's comments on this thread with the sarcasm font turned on, they're quite funny.

It appears that part is used on a lot of bikes. Up to current year. You would think it would be a stocked part. A trick I've used before is to measure the seal, inside diameter, outside diameter, thickness. Then look up the common commercial seal number. Often I've found the part I want is...
