Hmmmmm. The noise on a restaurant’s outdoor patio can easily be 70db+

Bylaw currently states: Under the Noise Bylaw, the noise from motorcycle exhaust outlets when idle, measured 50 cm away, should not exceed 92 dB(A) on a sound level meter. Subject to change obviously.

I was up that way on June 4th and a huge chunk of it was large gravel. Not a fun time.

You could try Alleycat, but would need to get into the city. https://www.alleycatmotorcycleservice.com/

I’ve been eyeing these….might just take the plunge now! Thanks! Was previously using wired headphones plugged into my Scala, or directly into my Zumo 590 if riding solo. Upgraded to a Zumo XT which doesn’t have a wired connection, so need to go full Bluetooth.

I previously used disposables. I had a custom pair a few years ago but they degraded over time and I didn’t find them particularly comfortable.

What do you wear when you need music? I’m hoping these will work to reduce wind noise but still allow use of Cardo for music/comms.

I just picked up some “Earpeace” plugs. Haven’t tried them out yet but they seem comfortable and can offer 3 different levels of attenuation.

Can someone please explain to me why ActiveTO is still happening? The city is open, tourism is a thing (and so is major construction which makes accessing the east end of the city difficult). Sorry for the rant, but this drives me insane!

Wife was at Budd’s yesterday. They have apparently received their last shipment of bikes and they don’t know when they will be receiving any more. They can’t even order any more F series BMWs apparently. Chip shortage etc further exacerbating supply chain issues.

Depends on whether they have a demo unit available for that particular model.

Different how? From a power perspective? FWIW, my wife didn’t use a top case…just a large dry bag on the rear rack. Soft bags may actually work for the OP. Inexpensive, lighter than a topcase, etc.

My wife had a Givi rear rack and side racks (for soft luggage) On her CB500F. Soft luggage (also Givi) was inexpensive, waterproof, but a bit of a pain because you needed to be sure the balance was right to avoid it slipping too far to one side. Her aftermarket slip-on melted the corner of one...

I think this may have been cheaper than my R9T! I was shocked….but it’s been a while since I had a BMW serviced to be honest.

Viva la passione! 😁

I’ve owned a decent amount mysel…but I’ve become a Multistrada fanboy…now on my 3rd 😂

My wife found the Multistrada 1200 far more comfortable than the GS I had. I’d get her opinion on my V4 Multi, but she has her own bike now 😁

Desmo valves are gone on the new Multi. Service intervals are amazing. I’d say quality on Ducatis has much improved overall.

Hence the fact that people are willing to pay to store somewhere that isn’t going to pack up and leave over the winter!
