Two new Ninja/Z electric bikes from Kawasaki, but it looks like Canada only gets the Ninja version. Modest specs and performance put these firmly in the '125cc city bike' category: - 88km/hr, with short bursts of up to 105km/hr in 'boost' mode - 67km range - 309 pound curb weight - two...

An up-close look at one of the functional, self-propelled Batpods from Dark Knight: I spent the whole video trying to see if I could figure out what is functional and what is just tacked on styling. It's not as bad as I first thought, but I particularly like that your balls are suspended just...

Any recommendations or references for general gearing theory? Specific example: Ninja 300 with stock gearing (14/42) at Shannonville Long. The bike has a power commander and pulls all the way up to the 13k rev limiter. I'm currently only using 4 gears (2-3-4-5), getting near the redline in 5th...

Saw this pop up on YouTube today. A cigarette sponsor, lots of 'staches, purple windbreakers, and obligatory shots of pretty girls in the crowd: Also includes onboard Sony HandyCam footage! There are a ton of other 80's and 90's vintage races on that channel if that's your thing.

Huge increases in insurance costs cancel most NI road race events in 2023. I think the only surprise is that it hasn't happened sooner. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-64591498

As seen on reddit. A good start for one heck of a bucket list.

My 12 year old A/C system is struggling to cool the house. I got Enercare out to have a look at it, and the guy diagnosed the unit within a minute or two as being low on freon. But he said he couldn't fix it today (it's a 4 hour service?) and he actively discouraged me from getting Enercare to...

So I was involved in a minor accident today in the car. I'm confident that I am not at fault, but I dont have great supporting evidence and I'd like to get some opinions about making a claim. I was traveling northbound, the other car was traveling southbound. At an intersection with green...

Sometime in mid-December every thread starting showing up empty for me with Tapatalk on Android. In the sub-forums, the "most recent post" preview content is displayed correctly for each thread, but if I click on any thread there are no visible posts in it at all. The page counts are accurate...

Has anyone done the RallyConnex Corduroy trail ride? This is the casual trail ride, not the enduro competition: http://www.rallyconnex.com/cordinfo.html I haven't ridden around Gooderham yet and I like the idea of getting an intro to the trails via their GPS track. Any idea what facilities they...

I've been making an effort to explore more (dirt) back roads this season, and it is vastly more entertaining than the regular paved options. Google maps has led me in a couple of cases to what turned out to be snowmobile or ATV tracks, which were at the upper limit of my comfort zone on the...
