    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Checked the web site - you make $100 for every 1000 kw/h. So you buy their charger for $300, and in your case you're making $120/month or break even in 3 months on the charger??? Sounds like a no-brainer, but what's the catch and why would anyone not want to go this route? As for the outlet, if...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Didn't know these generic ones existed. I thought about buying a Senna remote to stop reaching for my helmet every time I wanted to skip a track, but for the cost I instead bought a Cardo with voice command. So much better, but I guess you get spoiled and having to say "Hey Cardo, next track" is...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Reliability of an ICE vehicle needs to be considered in context, though. Rightly or wrongly, my impression of Hyundai is that their ICE engines are weak, so an EV should only make it more reliable. Conversely with Jaguar and their history of electrical issues, an EV may not be a better option...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    IN or OUT? Starting to consider an EV, but the big question is whether to install the charger inside or outside the garage. I've been thinning the herd and making room for the possibility of parking it inside, but I may not always do so. Is there a charger that can be installed inside the...

    I like the Buzz as well, but surprised they discontinued it. Not sure if I'd consider used since single model year run means even more limited parts availability - both new and especially used.

    Torque wrench on sale

    Agree if all you have is paper, but I order online and end up with 4 copies: - one in the Canadian Tire web site: my history goes back to 2022 - one in my email when I place the order - one on paper when I pick up my order - detailed list of items purchased in my monthly CT Mastercard statement...

    Torque wrench on sale

    Lifetime of the tool, could only be a few years the way they make things these days. Besides, it costs nothing to leave the receipt in your email.

    Exactly why I don't either, but I always get comprehensive. For some reason I'm paranoid about my bikes getting stolen, vandalized, or catching fire without it. I guess the voodoo works, because I've never had either happen.

    Ducati single sided swingarm wheel nut needs 170 lb ft, so you need something like this one for that. Also much easier to do car lug nuts with the better leverage. I have a older Maximum with this spec. Keep the receipt even though it says lifetime warranty - some stores require it which makes...

    Amazon Price Fixing

    I remember when I used to put things in my Amazon cart, if I didn't buy immediately, the price would start going up. It really ****** me off, but I've noticed they don't seem to do that any more.

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

    Yup, it's surprising how much even used TRS pin kits are selling for. Plus you need a base installed wherever you want to use them, so limited flexibility while straps/chock are more portable. But they're very good at holding the bikes down:

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

    Straps? We don't need no stinking straps... With a good wheel chock (which includes the V-nose of a U-Haul trailer), all the straps need to do is keep the bike from backing out. The chock keeps the bike upright and the front wheel from moving side to side.
