Almost exactly 12 years ago to the day, I had my garage door converted to high lift with new springs, pulleys, cables, and extended tracks. Today the opener would only lift the door about 6 inches and stop, then the door would slowly sink back down. Looked up and one of the 2 springs are broken...

For those who haven't heard (like me), here's a lawyer's take on the legalities of who did what:

After seeing the ridiculous pricing of actual moto gear bags, I decided to just buy a wheeled hockey bag for lugging my stuff around on trips like the one to the Dragon. I previously borrowed one from my brother and liked having everything together instead of thrown all over the floor of the...

We ordered food for delivery tonight and specifically chose NO contactless delivery. Wondering what was taking so long, we looked outside and saw the bag just left on our porch without even ringing the bell. It was out there long enough that the food was actually cold - not even room...

Full schedule of all events leading up to the main race on Saturday: https://www.motoamerica.com/event/ MTRSPT1 will be live streaming the Daytona 200 itself free as well as a couple of the other races: https://www.mtrspt1.com/en/#to-watch-content Last year I watched using the DistroTV app...

I'm looking at a bike and need to sort out logistics since my MDX has problems (as usual). I requested a quote from TFX International - anyone have any experience with them? Alternatively, anyone passing through Montreal interested in picking up the bike for me for a fee, or can you recommend...

Same organizer for the upcoming Toronto and Montreal shows. Has anyone been to both and how do they compare? I've been to the Toronto one a few times recently and like it better than the January Supershow because of the better manufacturer presence. But even then, they don't always bring the...

When I usually click on the bell after seeing an alert of new posts, it usually shows a list of all recent posts and highlights the unread ones. But today it isn't highlighting the unread ones. Did something change last night or yesterday?

Post any Black Friday deal here. Got this from Ttriple Clamp Moto: Black Friday sales are now live online, and for our local customers we’re running an open-warehouse event with even hotter deals and in-person specials. From Wednesday to Saturday this week, walk our warehouse aisles...

This is the first video I've seen that actually explains the scientific principles behind how they work, but most importantly what conditions are required for them to work and why there are conflicting reports of them working for some but not others.

The last time I was in Italy was in 2007 and my Blackberry included a travel adapter that worked there. I haven't had a chance to figure out what I need to charge my iPhone, so I'm hoping some of the regular European travellers can make a recommendation on a good quality adapter before my wife...

Enbridge sent a tech to replace my gas meter (that I didn't ask for), and he noted my water heater vent wasn't 12" above grade and gave me a B infraction for that. Then he gave me a separate A infraction for the furnace vents for the same reason. But he didn't enter my house or turn off the gas...

Still scratching my head as to how Ryan didn't scratch his.

Even with the hack from @Lightcycle to mark the Politics Paddock forum as read until a certain date, you still see topics under "What's New", even though they're not highlighted as unread. I'm here for local motorcycling content which makes me want to ride/wrench, not politics which makes be...

Is it possible to either replace the "What's New" with "New Posts", or add it? I know it's only one extra click, but personally I don;t see the point of "What's New" if it displays topics that have no new posts since I last visited? This would also make it easier to ignore forums such as...

If I'm reading this right, no more need for a separate dedicated satellite communicator (Garmin InReach, etc.) while traveling in remote areas? Not sure where the 5.4 million square kilometers covers, though. https://www.rcrwireless.com/20250716/5g/rogers-satellite Rogers explained that the...

It's been a long time since I had to deal with traffic tickets, but my daughter just got 3 of them at once in her car. Technically off topic, but thought this would be of interest to riders regardless. She was stopped behind a bus in the right lane, waiting for it to move so she could turn right...

Princess Auto has a motorcycle wheel balancer for $60, which is about as cheap as I can recall. Good for those who DIY tire changes. https://www.princessauto.com/en/product/PA0009118746
