    What is your Budget for a Bargain Find?

    A properly safety-worthy, ready to ride bike has been worth at least $2000 for maybe 15 years at least? I haven't been looking for deals for a couple years so I can't confirm if the price has gone up recently. So when you say back in the day, how far back are you talking? Late 90s?

    One small step

    Why would this event in particular set anything back? Blue Origin is a private enterprise. Sure they've sucked in at least $1.5B in government money, but it's still controlled by Bezos. This is just regular billionaire ****

    What's the going rate for motorcycle service?

    EK has the screw type (SLJ) master links, I highly recommend them

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    If the seller was just slightly less delusional they would not have included that 360 walk-around in the ad. Highly recommend clicking through to see it

    Trailer ownership with you in vehicle?

    It's not something I normally consider either. It feels like strictly an add-on ticket to me but rules are rules

    Does this bother anyone as much as it bothers me?

    There needs to be a big bold pictogram on the bottles. I technically know this is how the bottles are supposed to work but I use them upside down every single time

    2025 Rate

    My renewals are coming in, but insuring a new-to-me car last year generated so much paperwork I'm scratching my head trying to figure out if the rates went up or down

    Two 12V questions

    The GB70 specifically can power 12V devices, but I don't know if you can do it through the clamps - the manual wants you to use the 12V out port (cigarette lighter adapter, basically)

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Got lucky once again! Flushed out a bunch of black stuff from the caliper and it seems to be working now. I thought it had been flushed recently, but maybe that flush stirred up some ancient debris that settled into a blockage over last winter. Will hold my breath for a week or two, but I...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Put the battery back into my 919 at the beginning of this week, put the battery back into the TL1000S today. Discovered a fuel tank bolt under the seat had rattled off (well, I discovered that when I parked it for the winter, then forgot to do anything about it). Also the rear brake pedal is...

    Damn used 4k smart TVs getting very cheap.

    We had a Samsung 3D TV that died twice. Once while under warranty, where they sent a guy to our house to replace something substantial, and then the second time something on the motherboard gave up, parts were unobtainable. Now we have an LG 4K TV, some hrmm-years old, and while it's mostly okay...

    Good, but I wouldn't crop it that much for FB/Kijiji. You can't trust that they aren't going to automatically crop it further in previews/thumbnails

    Motorcycle mistakes you only make once... and ones you make all the time...

    I think about the only mistake that I'm done making is "inappropriate" speeding, I haven't gotten a ticket in at least 15 years. The mistake I make most often is troubleshooting a bike that won't start, eliminate the battery early on, bang my head on the problem for a week or two, then replace...
