Proven track record isn't there yet nor is the dealer network. Price-wise, there's plenty of leftover KTM 790/890 Adventure discounted to the same price as that and offers better spec especially if opting for the R version. Vstrom (or Transalp) would be my choice if serious offroad chops weren't...

Research showed me the tires I wanted were Coopers (Road&Trail AT) and /i found the best price at CT. Coopers are also owned by Goodyear so I asked the local Goodyear store if they'd price match which they did. I put more faith in Goodyear changing tires (not scratching wheels) on my brand new...

Handsome looking bikes as well imo. As long as someone is challenging Bulaga each weekend I'll be happy.

Local Reservation sells Marine 91 (non-eth). I keep 6 full 5gal cans full of it at home at all times to run in everything except the cars.

Replacement carbs can usually be found on Amazon for peanuts and often arrive next day. Lots of them used by guys on the snowblower forum with perfect results. Keep the rebuilt oem one as a spare.

I don’t pay a lot of attention when selecting the premium fuel option while riding but a buddy sent me this photo yesterday from the Shell in Cobourg. 1.20 for Regular and 1.86 for Premium seems rather excessive to me. I thought maybe it was a mistake but apparently this is normal pricing for...

Riding to Fort George is on my list either this year or next.

I'm almost through S4 and imo it's better.

Padded shorts is mine. Last year I did a 1200km dayride and at the end of it was fresh enough that I could have done it again the next day. And that was on a stock KTM seat! My second item would be a rechargeable battery pack (for phone, helmet comms, etc). Number three would be a rechargeable...

Not watch related, but anyone know a trustworthy coin appraiser? Coins mostly in the 50-100yr old range.

He was one of my favourite actors. I didn’t know he was as old as he was. RIP

I was given a few pocket watches and I’m not a watch person. Anyone know anything about these things (ie. are they worth selling or tossing)?

Changed the anode rod in the hot water tank and it had styrofoam about 2” think that I had to dig out to get at the top of the rod. Is it worth it to buy spray foam and cover it again or is the plastic cap enough? Looks like they just encapsulate the tank in foam then put the metal cover around...

With vehicles/toys getting more complicated it's making me wonder if parts availability will be an issue in the long run and it makes me not want to buy anything. Getting parts for 10yr old snowmobiles can be a hassle and in terms of cars try finding a BCM for a early C5 Vette or headlights for...

When I was young we used to pour it on the poison ivy around the property.

Get that thing coated in protectants before it's first use.

I feel like I'm filling vanity/trim cracks with caulking every winter. Maybe using a humidifier during Jan-Feb would be the answer.

I enjoyed the Wrecking Crew. Went in with low expectations and just turned my mind off and enjoyed it more than I thought I would. It was better than Ballerina which I also recently watched. Also rewatched Magnificent 7 again (excellent).

Switching to flats hoping it’s easier on my knees instead of being clipped in. Orange Oneups matches the KTM’s in the garage and I’m trying out some Freerider Pro Boa’s.

White caulking. It'll be a PITA to get wood filler tinted well enough to match the stairs so that it's not noticeable.
