    How would you strap down a Suzuki Burgman on a trailer?

    KLR style restraint is mean to the scooter.

    How would you strap down a Suzuki Burgman on a trailer?

    Green strap through front wheel appears to be relying entirely on tire friction to stay tight. It is attempting to rotate the wheel in reverse and only friction is resisting that force.

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    If you or I hit a bus (especially when playing on a phone), I would expect a careless ticket. Following too close may make sense if the bus was doing a panic stop at the time, but presumably it was slowing to let kids off with tons of flashing lights and lots of time for following traffic to adjust.

    Since they didn't say what ticket, I assume they vastly undercharged (and then flubbed the trial to avoid a conviction).

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    That would be the gold standard and before I did something expensive and permanent like an SDU I'd do it. Surveys aren't a couple hundred anymore though. For his fence, the siting would be good enough for me. Once I knew where the PL was, I could then decide whether to roll dice with fence location.

    That is guaranteed no matter what form it continues in. While it doesn't need to make a profit, there is a limit to the amount of money you dump into the hole to try to keep the past alive. At this point, CP is like encyclopedias. A couple people love it, more use it occasionally, most wouldn't...

    Especially in a corner on a double solid line. Any normal person would get at least a careless conviction. I would be shocked if this cop doesn't get a pass. worst case realistic scenario for cop is a trial that the crown botches to ensure an acquittal.

    I suspect it would be more efficient to kill CP than the union. The union would still exist, it would just have no members. When the government spins ups CP2, keep the union out as they just make things less efficient and more expensive.

    OPP pulling a u-turn on hwy 7 near havelock caused a crash. Thankfully it was a cage and they didn't kill a biker.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    He can't though. Shed is sided to match his house and on miss property. Fenceline inside Shed would be a giant red flag for any inspector driving by. Mp if you don't have a site plan yet, go buy a copy from the city. It should include the setback from the wall of the house to PL. Not quite as...

    They still don't get it. They are setting themselves up to be the first public sector union to be exterminated. Edit: That article is from Oct/25.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Also dry air. I run two dryers between the air compressor and hose(the second dryer gets very little, I had a spare and it is about 25' of copper pipe later so the theory is air will be cooler and may drop more water) and a final dessicant dryer on the gun. If I need more air capacity, I add...

    Gated driveway pics only

    Hell, there are some fancy gates with no fence and nothing behind the gate. Buy the land, put up the fancy gate, try to attract someone with more money than brains to build on the lot, fail, abandon project. Or this one with gate and posts but no fence panels.

    May also be for the lawyers. It's hard to argue in court that you didn't know access was restricted.

    Lost 1.6B last year. Up 87%. Community mailboxes seem like too small a leak, too late in the flush. https://www.ctvnews.ca/business/article/canada-post-reports-loss-of-157-billion-in-2025/

    @MacDoc is the resident burgman expert. @Priller might have one too.

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    I had spring/pump BB/Pellet pistol as a kid. Put a lot of bb's through it. By the time I retired it, the accuracy had declined to ~8' circle at 30'. Useless. I really like the suppressed air rifles that they are allowed to use in the US and UK (EDgun and similar). Canada hates them so I can't...
