As above, brazing will work. I also just welded up a crack in a cast iron manifold on my truck. My Uncle was a welder at Bombardier for 35 years and advised me to.. - preheat the part with lots of heat. Heat the whole casting (if possible) to between 500-800 degrees F. I used the oven while...

That is so cool. Wishing him the best of luck

It is intrusive through. If a cop is following you his car can flag you for having no insurance Maybe that’s a good thing

I personally think that this is one thing he has done that does make sense. We have a office in Amsterdam and I remember the Sales guy telling me that everything - license, insurance, ownership, road fees, etc. - is on his phone. Parking is through through ANPR. That was like 5 years ago. Cops...

Or you could just save it up and follow them home... LOL.

LOL. No kidding, However advocates for the homeless are concerned that power washing human **** off the sidewalk is embarassing for those who left it there and it victimizes and shames them... It obviously shames them much worse than ******** in public in the first place. I don't know why...

From what i have read i believe you are right. I think a good upgrade that’s mentioned is a set of keihin CR’s but short of finding a good used set or a lottery win I‘ll have to try to get the the standard ones jetted.

I bought a 1985 750 Slabby to restore (pics coming). They were always one of my favorite bikes although I never owned one back in the day. I got the frame, fork legs, swingarm and footrests Vapor Blasted and hit them with some red Scotchbrite. It came up a treat so I don’t think I’ll bother...

Trying to get my Mother in Law set up with Shippsy account. For anyone that has used it... I assume that you just put the address they provide making sure her name and the SHP# is on there. The package then shows up at their facility in Niagara Falls, she pays any charges they may be...

I was debating whether or not to post this here but since complete junk is now selling for around $8k it seems like someone would be better spending a little extra and buying this. Its 100% original with a solid tank. It does have a set of Toomeys which are an OK pipe but still better than...

I’m rebuilding my little RZ350 race motor for this year as I had to replace 2nd gear, so I always replace the crankshaft seals when its apart as its cheap insurance against the left cylinder running lean. I bought that set of seals in January 2020 the last time I had the motor apart and they...

I don’t use any of them except for being a member of a few boards and Linkedin for work. Twitter was actually fun for the first few months it was in existence. It started off as a clear pool where people could come to be refreshed and share ideas and opinions. Now it’s just a scummy stagnant...

I did my wife's 2019 Macbook Air Retina just before Christmas. TBH, I was a little disappointed that it only lasted 2 years while her old one never had a battery issue throughout its entire life. I bought a new genuine (supposedly) Apple battery from New Egg for $59. You will need Torx...

The thing I really liked about the 660 though, is that you could ride it hard. I many respects its a bit of a hooligan bike that you can thrash and just have the throttle sitting on the stop without it doing 180mph and scaring you to death. It certainly has a lot less power than the 1100 or...

Black and red with the red wheels. If I were in the market it would definitely be on the list I have ridden the MT-07 before and I think the 660 is a much nicer bike, although the Yamaha is probably bulletproof

Had a ride on a friend’s Tuono 660 today. All I can say is wow, I can’t get the grin off my face. That motor just wants to be reved. It seems to be happiest when it’s getting a lot of throttle but unlike a big bike wont bite you (as bad) and the torque and gearing is all about the real world...

I fundamentally believe that people should get vaccinated. I don’t believe that it will prevent you from getting Covid but I believe it can help reduce the severity of the symptoms. Take this with a grain of salt as I’m not a doctor (and I didn’t even stay at a Holiday Inn last night) so talk to...

In the middle of restoring this. It was a bit of a mash up as it had the later Canadian forks and footrests on it, but the frame and motor is a 84 so that's what it will end up as. Its all stripped and the frame is actually in quite good condition. I just made a start on the motor as...

Well, its not just China... LOL https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadas-public-health-agency-admits-it-tracked-33-million-mobile-devices-during-lockdown

Thanks for all the help and all useful comments posted above. Especially Brian P. I ended up getting a used 400 Ninja but was a little concerned about the issue where they pop out of gear. I'd read about that on a number of other forums as well. I ended up taking the motor apart to check...
