My greatest memory of "The Hulk" is an extremely negative one. After his "wrestling" career was over, he rented out as a celebrity bodyguard. After a Cyndi Lauper concert was over, a fan wanting an autograph got too close to her (like 5-7 ft). The fan was a little guy, maybe 5'6" and with a...

If you're not aware, they vibrate badly. If you're looking at 650's, my advise is to buy a twin. And they are definitely not comfortable 2 up. Just my opinionated opinion.

Your insurance is going to be insanely expensive as a new rider. Get some estimates before you go through with the deal.

I bought a 1959 Ariel 650 Huntmaster twin in 1965. It was an abused many-ownered bike. But it was the gateway drug to Brit-land. Next step was a new 1966 Norton Atlas, which required replacement with a 1967 Atlas - which led to a 1969 Commando (the 1st of several).

Saw it maybe 10-12 times. You just aren't old enough. It came out in the height of the psychedelic period. Best light show by far at the cinema!

IF the engine runs, warm it up properly, then play with the throttle 'til it hangs. Then check each cable separately to figure which one. My 2cents - worth a try.

Pre-Covid a friend and I zigzagged our way out west, thru the good roads around Sturgess, to an army base north of Edmonton to see his son. Got a ride in a Leopard tank - think Torque. From there thru Banff and out to Vancouver. Back thru Idaho (Road to the Sun), and a wiggly path back to the...

CR*P !

And on the subject of salesmen who know nothing. Back when there was a Honda sell-everthing store in Whitby, I stopped by to look at the new 2012 Goldwings. They had stopped production in the US in 2010 and moved production to Japan. No 2011 models, and they had made some changes. They had 1...

Same Timmies. Some background - I'm about 60 (at the time), short and decrepid. Couple come up to me and ask me if my bike is good for beginners - their son. I'm riding a 760lb six-cylinder 1500 Honda Valkerie bagger More of the same. A few years later I'm riding a 840lb 1800 Honda F6B and got...

Also the one year CB1000C, IIRC

Marianne Faithful. I had the book at one time - a lot better than the movie, but without the visuals.

Back in the 70's there was a McD at Jane and Falstaff in TO. They decided to open 24/7, but drive-thru only after 11:00 pm. and no walk-thru. Across from them are three 40+ story apartments. People would call the taxi company I worked for to do a 2 block (total) run to McD's. After we'd got all...

Looks like Binder has been watching old Marquez moves!

just a reminder - today June 17th - go!

1968 - Bought a new Norton Commando at the show (old Automotive Building - I think) Ernie White was the dealer - forget the shop's name (sold Honda's as well). 2018 - Bought a new Goldwing DCT Tour at the MMM show (Enericare Centre). Lindsay Honda - picked the bike up on the last day of the...

Is it possible to get copies if I provide a hard drive?

The NUMBER ONE cause of inflation is central bank printing presses. More fiat money chasing the same goods and services equals higher prices. All other factors only have a small effect on inflation.

Try Ultramar, CTC. or Costco
