Motorcycling Thread for MrX, Matty, and I

Damn that sounds sketchy.

How much did tow cost?

 

[Blitty]

How long can it drive after losing power?

Zero. I get 3 free tows a year with my CAA membership.

How long can it drive after losing power?

I was running on two cylinders (out of four.) I could've ridden it home by taking it slow on residential streets, like I did the last time it happened, but I would've risked blowing the engine.

Nelson and his bud met up with me and we traded war/bike stories while waiting for my negro tow. Nice day to be stuck on the side of the road.

Had my front tire changed today. When I came home to reinstall the wheel, two cops and one guy were standing around my bike. Thought they were going to tell me to stop working on my bike in the parking garage.

-Is this your bike?
-Yeah...
-Be careful man, mine was stolen from here last night.
-Oh! Oh no. Yours is the Ducati Monster?
-Yeah.
-So sorry man. That's why I have a piece of shit.

That last part is a lie, I have a piece of shit 'cause I'm broke.



Speaking of which, she's good as new! Feels like Christmas.

Damn. How close are you to scarsborough?

Stay safe man. You should bring jl to the states so that he doesn't join a playground gang..

 

[Matty]

Scarborough is 20 minutes northeast. That's probably where all the stolen bikes get chopped up, indeed.

that Ducati is heading to China

 

[Matty]

Ignition coil failed, once again.

No it didn't. My carburetors were just gummed up.

Note to fellow Gamelive motorcyclists, do not winterize your vintage bike with Sta-Bil Marine Formula, it doesn't work. Yellow sludge fest.

All good now.

 

[Saulty]

Nice ride today. Perfect weather. I made it back home in 15 min. Gunned it to 130mph at one point. The old lady didn't disappoint me.

Matty try Seafoam for the gas tank. Use both on bike and cars.

 

[Matty]

Yeah that's what I used to clean the carbs, but the spray version that you shoot right through the intake. Works like magic.

 

[Blitty]

A bit off topic but I want one of these. It's on sale.

Guy who had his Ducati stolen taped a note on every single bike in the parking garage.

Don't put tape on my tank, asshole. And get a shitty old bike like mine. I sleep well at night.

A bit off topic you say.

"It was a crazy, crazy night. That was when we were living in an apartment building in Toronto, downtown, Apartment 1503 15 Fort York Boulevard. He says 1503, two couches and paintings, and he goes on to talk about that apartment where we did all that music, on the new album. He was distraught one night and showed up with $1,000 worth of champagne and Im cussing at him because were all broke and trying to make this shit work! Meanwhile, hes renting Phantoms and shit. Its all documented. He shows up with all the liquor and hes drinking and were trying to start working and he gets into a real argument with his uncle, and he went out on the balcony and started yelling at his uncle and Id never seen him that distraught or emotionally beat up about something. He just came back in the room and said, I need to rap. Make me something. In 45 minutes, I made The Calm and he wrote those bars as I made the beat. Over the next five or six hours, that record unfolded in its entirety"
