    Knowing Better

    Geez I haven't even put the lawnmower away yet (will do one more cut soon). Plenty of riding time still available. I'll call it a season when the brine goes down.

    Why Is Motorcycle Oil So Expensive?

    Given past history I wouldn't waste a call to them. I called them last year about trying to price match a pair of $750 boots and it was a 20min waste of time just to hear them say no. Saved $150 and bought elsewhere. Actually they lost two sales of those boots as my riding buddy liked mine so...

    Why Is Motorcycle Oil So Expensive?

    The 15w50 that I need isn't on sale though sadly. Same price as Amazon but that is what I bought. I'd run a non-bike oil but finding something in a 10w50 or 15w50 that I need for the SAR isn't common. I run T6 in the 300.

    Where are the Toronto Jays fans

    No more selling tickets behind home plate to Marlin-red guy and his red-sunglasses buddy. Everyone standing and they’re sitting staring at their phones the entire game. Sell those tickets to real Jays fans! (Or better yet, buy them and donate them to a diehard elderly fan that can’t afford to go).

    Why Is Motorcycle Oil So Expensive?

    First off, I’m not cheap AF but I’d rather spend my money on cool stuff. What really grinds my gears is that I pay $34 for 5L of top-quality Pennzoil Platinum for my cars/truck but it costs me ~$87 at least for 4L of synthetic motorcycle oil. So why the 200% surcharge for MC oil? Surely getting...

    Where are the Toronto Jays fans

    We try to hit a game a year and I always watch Jays highlights throughout the year. Watched most of each post-season game (until like 10ish because I'm old). I still remember watching the 1992-93 games live and will keep enjoying this series.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    I've been enjoying the Wilson Forest Lands videos.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    That reminds me, we've been meaning to get a freezer but never got around to it. Will look around for a sale. I've been considering upgrading my 2yr old Stihl MS250CBE chainsaw for no other reason than I saw a bigger one for sale NIB. Maybe hunting for a freezer will deter me from watching more...

    2025 Day Trips!

    I didn’t head out until almost noon as it was just 2c when I got up so just a 400km ride around Havelock/Coe Hill/Bancroft/Deloro areas. 60/40 split of dirt/road. Such a great time to be out as temps were nice in the afternoon, no bugs, and trails empty.

    Considering a second bike

    I can deal with the continued adds for Monster 1200's I'm seeing now after searching Kijiji/Marketplace to see current prices. Weirdly though, today I had a missed call from a 408 number and the voicemail was a lady inquiring if I was satisfied with my recent customer service experience for my...

    Considering a second bike

    Ditching the trellis in an attempt to lower weight and choosing function over form. Now it looks like every other naked bike in it's category.

    Indian motorcycles sold

    I agree the bike attracted different buyers to the brand but it's hard to keep making the bike in this market if no ones buying it. I thought it was a beauty and would be fun but I don't really have use/time for one and therefor didn't buy one either. Lot's of us loved the bike but never gave...

    Indian motorcycles sold

    Sad days are ahead imo for that brand. I give them a few years before bankruptcy. Honestly with the way the toy market is these days I'm happy I've downsized part of my garage over the past year as buying anything new is a risk that the brand may not be here in a few years. How much longer will...

    Considering a second bike

    Samesies. I put 40,000km trouble-free on my 1200S Ducati Multistrada and it's one of the few bikes I truly miss and would happily buy another. It's by far the one with the most character and the only one that I felt that there was something special about it (likely that every piece is truly...

    I just bought a 1984 Honda V30 Interceptor

    The bigger it gets the more stuff you fill it up with so it just never gets too big. Then you start going minimalist (to a degree) and start charging rent. Anyone need winter storage for their bike? ;)

    Considering a second bike

    I've driven the VFR, later Gen FZ1, and most various sizes of Ducati Streetfighter/Monster/Multi/Hypermotard/Hyperstrada/Diavel. If I wanted a bike that fit your needs it'd be the Monster 1200S. That would be around your budget with super low mileage ones a bit higher. Lots of character...

    Considering a second bike

    Passenger capable? All day comfy or just 1-2hrs? Luggage? As Lightcycle pointed out, half your list is almost as porky as your RT. Try to take a few different bikes out to decide what suits your wants and then narrow down from there with options that match what you liked.

    What's your time worth?

    I'd chat to a bot over a flesh tech support from Xplornet any day.

    Daily sports car?

    I took out an F-Type R Vert a couple weeks ago at a reputable dealer that had around 45k on it and was shocked at how poor the interior of the car had held up. It was a earlier version and I know they made some switchgear upgrades but buttons showed a lot of wear, steering wheel cover had...

    Go to automotive cleaning products.

    All depends if you're cleaning or protecting, restoring, what the surface is, if you want it left matte or a certain level of shine, etc. For tires I use Meguiars Ultimate Insane tire spray. It'll leave a high-gloss shine, won't sling, lasts a decent timeframe, and a can isn't overly expensive...
