    GTAM Holiday Dinner - Sat, Jan 10th, 2026 (post moto show)

    Sorry, may not have been clear. I meant after Tims, go there, pick up a couple steaks and toss them into the tank bag and rip it home to the bbq. When they sell it by the case, well, not so suitable for motorcycle transport and its no longer just a single day's dinner.

    GTAM Holiday Dinner - Sat, Jan 10th, 2026 (post moto show)

    Huh. That's right behind the Dundas & 403 Tims. There's an idea. Ride around Milton. Stop for a coffee, then 'take out'. Oh, looking at the in-store menu, looks to be all whole sale.

    Bicycle carrier

    They sell trailer hitches for some bike types and bike specific trailers that lean with or have swiveling mounts. Probably much more expensive than you had in mind though.

    Phone Scammers

    This combined with designing a system without carriers putting your phone calls through a data miner makes it impossible without inadvertently blocking any legitimate calls. User habits are different regionally so without listening to your calls, there's no way to know on a brand new call...

    Handlebar Real Estate

    If you don't mind me asking, why GPS and phone both? Google maps offline mode works pretty good these days. If you download the map locally, you don't need cell service for directions or routing. This works great as long as the path is recognized as a road.

    Battery Charger recommendation

    I generally just use an SAE compatible battery tender and leave the lead on the bike permanently. Don't let the battery go dead and you wont have to 10a charge it! However, for jump start, the red, yellow and green tool brands have a jump starter now. Still, the Noco work better. Project...

    Evotech performance also makes a mount. I don't remember which Ducati Scrambler you had but this is a low profile option. They make it for all sorts of mounting systems, not just quadlock but even Garmin and Tomtom. So pick your 'locking' method. You'll generally want it to be removable...

    Ryan Wedding

    It's like you haven't seen a Saudi Prince's garage. Also, the sale of older bikes for cash helps the teams. While the factory Ducati team doesn't need the cash, others are probably more than happy to sell the old bikes for a non-insignificant amount of cash. I think the Lorenzo bike in the...

    Ryan Wedding

    A man of excellent taste. He should be given a pardon for being such a connoisseur of fine motorcycles. Even see a Nicky Hayden tucked into the back right.

    Re-sole Motorcycle Boots

    West end would be nice. Not saying I can't do Aurora though.

    Re-sole Motorcycle Boots

    Any recommendations for a cobbler who would do motorcycle boots? In specific, I have two pairs of Alpinestars SMX6v1's that are perfectly good except for the heels (foot out sumo!) and rather than chucking the two pairs of otherwise perfectly fine boots in the trash. I'm sure the soles could...

    Portable solar chargers for phones laptops ect

    Many laptops can just take USB C (specifically USB C-PD (power delivery)) and no longer require an AC charger. Most motorcycles are 12v power so it'd be DC to DC for many types of battery banks that support 12v charging. USB C-PD is up to 20v5a which is 100w, far exceeding a motorcycle's...

    Comm's in helmets

    It's actually due to the limitations of bluetooth over distance. Pillion distance is about as good as bluetooth gets for real time comms. You would think to compare it to bluetooth at home on a bluetooth speaker, but the Bluetooth A2DP protocol is designed with built in buffering (think how...

    Portable solar chargers for phones laptops ect

    I'd recommend an SAE (the ones you see on battery tender lead) to USB adapter. If you want to take the extra step, you can also do SAE to Cigarette Lighter socket and a cigarette lighter socket to USB adapter. Of course, you'll have to be careful not to drain your bike battery. There are lots...

    North American International Motorcycle Supershow - Jan 9-11, 2026

    The show is essentially moto social but with vendors instead of bikes. It is as much or as little as you value face time amongst friends and acquaintances. Especially in the winter season, it's great to meet up with faces you may not have seen since the last ride of the year. With GP Bikes...

    princessauto motorcycle lift $301 until Monday Dec 15

    Why does the ad look like that with the image just superimposed? Also, the product sku on the site doesn't show that price. https://www.princessauto.com/en/1000-lb-motorcycle-lift/product/PA0008880239

    Phone Scammers

    It's a lot more complicated than that. You should see how affordable a sim farm is these days. They also don't usually hit you with a link in the first message. It's usually something that if just blocked, could impact legitimate conversation. "Hi" or "Hello" or "Can we chat?" or "Got a...
