    Daily sports car?

    My favorite body-style was the E46 M3. Classic looks. Is on my Top 10 list of cars that would be in my garage if I had the means. And also a Porsche 993 Turbo and a Harley-Davidson VRSCR...

    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    Always amazed at how often people trade in their bikes. If you trade in your bike every 12 months or less, what is the reason? Boredom? Want to try something new? Or do you discover little irks that just make the bike unsuitable for ownership? If you finally had to sell your long-termer? What...

    Nice! Congrats! Is that the dealership at Steeles and Bathurst?

    Hydraulic Valve Trains

    Agree with the non-race bikes, as modern mettalurgy has gotten good enough to produce valvetrains that are capable of handling high revs for the street and Ducati is trying to capture more riders downmarket with lower maintenance costs. I don't see myself letting go of my current...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    No argument here!!! 🤪 For me, I don't look at it as owning multiple motorcycles. I have a specific machine for local dirt I have a different one for faraway dirt. I have yet another one for street/track. It's like having different tools in the toolbox. Sure, you can use a screwdriver to...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Ah, there's my problem. I coat my bike with slick stuff *AFTER* I crash it. Blood, sweat and tears. Mainly tears. Lots of it... 😭

    Cheapskates Corner

    Akin to the "penny wise, pound foolish" adage. People will spend time and energy to pack a lunch for work instead of eating out, perhaps saving $5-6K a year. Meanwhile they do absolutely no research into the financial fees, interest, taxes and insurance they are currently over-paying on, which...

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    It's a common perception that BC as a whole is rainy and dreary, when the reality is that the coastal rains only drench the western slope of the coastal mountains, which only accounts for around 20% of the province. It's like people saying, "Ontario is so crowded and congested, the traffic is...

    Hydraulic Valve Trains

    Well, any tech they stuff into Formula 1 cars and MotoGP bikes probably won't come cheap.

    Hydraulic Valve Trains

    I'm a bit of a metalhead and prefer to Rock On! I'm waiting for pneumatic valves to hit the mainstream. You've heard of V-TEC? Get ready for Pee-TEC! Urine for a revving good time! [insert image of Pee-Strom here]

    Love the Koots. We live 1.5 hours away from that sign! Great on and off-road riding there.

    That's the thing with Artificial Intelligence. It will generate reams of nicely formatted text with bullet points, different font sizes and bold and italic highlights about any topic you want, including why you should quit motorcycles because Zoomers prefer buying a new smartphone every year...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I call shenanigans. Tell the truth - once you get a bike dirty, you immediately trade it in for a brand new one. My bike has never been that clean, even on day one...

    Anybody need some cellular data?

    I don't believe these are the best deals that PM can do. If you read the not-so-small-print, these plans pad out the data by 20GB for only 6 months, so after the honeymoon period, you're back to paying $45 for 100GB and $40 for 70GB. Currently, I'm at $35 for 60GB, same coverage and minutes as...

    Cheapskates Corner

    My bad. I thought this was the cheapskate's corner. Not the "F-n Food Ballers in this thread" thread... 🤷‍♂️ On my way to the Horological thread to proclaim how I don't wear watches because every device I own has a clock on it already.

    Cheapskates Corner

    Yep, we do that too. Although this probably doesn't qualify for a cheapskate's corner post, we love lamb burgers, but it's literally twice as expensive as pork, so we end up making patties out of a ground lamb and ground pork mix. Pads the burgers out with cheaper meat that doesn't take away...
