Full Disclosure - This regards my sled. Specifically a 1980 Kawasaki Invader liquid cooled 440 Was running fine and then it blew an exhaust gasket. Ever since the new gasket it hasn't ran right. It has no power under load. On a stand it runs like a champ. With the track on the ground it just...

Being retired I'm looking to join a service club again (decades ago I was an Optimist member) Thinking about the Kinsmen or the Lions since they're reasonably active in town. Thoughts?

Squeeze enjoys watching MC racing. This past summer we went to watch the Manx GP on the IOM (and are planning a return for summer after next). Now I'm thinking we should take in a MotoGP race. Which one would be top of your list and why?

Between my 2 Wings I've got data on likely over 60 passes. I'm thinking about maybe using that to figure out my best ET and go bracket racing next summer. To figure out my best number can I add my ET and my reaction time. In other words once the light turns green does it matter when I trip the...

This is a good time. Old bikes, old cars, some racing, you can even play monkey and hang off a sidecar (Trust me it's a huge rush!) If you spot Seemore or my old Honda stop by and say hello. https://www.gbfos.ca/

Anyone keen to head north for a few days before the cool weather sets in? Was hoping to revisit the old ghost town of Silver Centre. Prefer rough camping but parks work too.. Let me know. Can do weekend or thru the week.

Weather for this Friday night looks good so I am hoping to get the Wing out to St Thomas Dragway. Test & Tune Friday night. 15$ for spectators. 40$ if you ride/drive up and want to test your mettle. If you've never pulled up to the tree and staged I highly recommend it. Quite the adrenaline rush.

Squeeze and I got back Saturday from a week in the Isle of Mann. We specifically went to take in the Manx GP. The MGP is not to be confused with the TT, which is the more famous race that takes place earlier in the summer. We decided on the MGP because we felt the TT would be busier, more...

My new battery barely made it back from the trip it seems. Turned the key today and nothing. 6.6V at the battery. The FRIGGING new battery. Slipped in the Wing battery. Turn key, lights up and fires up. Checking the battery I see lots of 16.5-16.9V with spikes into 17 and 18V. (I'm always...

https://vintagemotorcycledays.com/ At Paris a few years ago the KLusteR decided we should take in the Mother of all vintage swap meets. We got back yesterday. Four KLRs and one turncoat T7. Crossed in Buffalo and rode down to Butler OH last Wednesday. Thursday was a bit lazy and we rode down to...

KLR needs and ignition switch and new gas cap. These guys are almost too good to be true. A few reviews later and I think I'm right. Anyone had good experiences?

I'm looking into a new trailer. 5x7 utility. I've noticed some have the wheel near the the mid point of the box and some noticably much closer to the rear. (see pic) Should I be concerned too much tongue weight with something like this one shown? I'm pulling with a Matrix that has a 200lb tongue...

I built a pond/watergarden (3000 liters) for the Squeeze over 20 years ago. Added plants and feeder fish from the pet store and never looked back. They have flourished. Every once in a while a heron would hoover up some - back to the pet store. I estimate approx 120-140 inches of fish combined...

Was in the driveway with a buddy enjoying a beer when we got to looking at my trailer. Turns out the rear spring shackle/mount was completely broken. The rear end of the leaf spring was floating. Only the weight of trailer was keeping it in place. So far this year the trailer has made two...

My hard plumbed NG que just gave it up. I just want a simple 2 burner unit but for some reason the selection with NG seems higher end and I'm struggling to find simpler 2 burner units. I think the difference is only jet size. Can I drill out propane to run NG or is it the other way round?

Rocky's in London id done.

Trailered the dirtbike across Toronto yesterday out to the Ganny and then we rode double track most of the way to Test Hill. We were the only ones there but I assume it's right shite show on a weekend. Is this area the spot they referred to as the "tank trails" when I went to high school in...

Anyone planning to take in the racing? (Or actually racing??) It's like $20 to camp for the weekend. I'm considering loading up the camper. https://shannonville.com/calendar/

I've used this in the past but now I'm not sure where to find it. Thanks

That's less than $5 a litre. Sale ends next Thursday. I'm torn my pail is down to about 1/4....
