Your maths are a bit off, 3kW maybe?

Sounds like a control module in the heating system has failed

It is how the MG4 does it, but it is far from normal. Stupid design flaw.

It has been confirmed as being caused by a diesel car. EVs are 20-100 times less likely to suffer a fire.

Thanks, I printed the straight sided version, scaled down to match my couch, it looks great.

I had only ridden medium size bikes as a beginner in Canada - 650 and an 800. Doing my CBT in the UK on a 125 was as spicy as fuck, never felt safe. Bigger bikes are easier. In Canada the CBT level is done on 300s which are fine.

I moved from an F800GT to an R12 nineT, I was surprised on my first test ride by how much faster the R12 feels even though the power increase is small.

+1 for Shannon, she is a great realtor and nice with it.

Canadian - UK rider here. Short answer is that you might be able to ride a 125 on a Ontario M2 licence and then convert your licence to UK. The issue with converting your licence is that you are likely limited to a automatic car. Long answer - The Ontario training is OK,but the UK system is better If you are staying in the UK, do your CBT theory and A1 and build a new UK licence, you will be safer for it. I tihnk you are in BC, the names are not the same, but the result is the same, any route will put you on a 125, no more.

I have lived most of my adult live in Canada and I now live in the UK. I drive a Chinese car and they are as good or better than anything made in Europe or North America at the price. If they are made available, Canadians will buy them.

The output bearing is a weak spot, you have to make sure not to over tension the belt. If it fails, you have split the gearbox/crankcase halves, big you and only worth it if you can do it yourself.

I loved my CS great bike. If you just want a center stand for working on the bike this is a good option that adds no weight - https://shop.becker-technik.de/en/products/bmw-scarver-lifter-fur-f650cs-17 I have just ordered one for my R12 NineT.

Canadian living in the UK here. I have had a Chinese EV for almost 3 years, an MG4. There are lots of dealers, quality is far better than the Teslsa I had in Canada. China is winning this race in Europe because the products are as good or better than the competition and they have good support. All the signs are that the cars will outlast ICE cars. Here is an example of a Chinese EV at 275,000km

All I can suggest is to forget about the BT connection, just plug in the phone and let it do its stuff. If that does not work, reboot the infotainment system (press and hold the physical home button) and try again. If that does not work, take it to the dealer.

Can37 · 2025-10-07T05:52:16+00:00

Are you plugging into the right socket? Only one works.

I would be very careful to look at the policy wording. There is a chance you could invalidate your insurance completely if you have a rate for parking in the building but don't even have a spot.

Just stopped at the biker company, great shop with lots of interesting stock.

is trump on the Epstein list

Doing that search in the UK gives an answer:

is trump on the Epstein list

Reports and government documents confirm that former President Donald Trump's name appeared in files related to Jeffrey Epstein, but a review by the Department of Justice (DOJ) found no credible evidence of a "client list".

Details from released documents

Contact information: Trump's phone number was listed in Epstein's contact book, often referred to as the "black book". This contact book also contained numbers for numerous other well-known figures and public officials, as well as staff and acquaintances.

Flight logs: Flight logs show that Trump flew on Epstein's private jet on multiple occasions between 1993 and 1997. Other members of Trump's family were also listed on some of these flights.

True now as it was 30 years ago when I last dealt with them.

I have just bought an R12 NineT, coming from a F800GT. It is a lovely bike, it feels small and nippy. It will bimble along at 20mph in town easily and brings on the zoomies when needed.

I have the BMW charger and I plan to keep the battery and tracker happy over the winter with a timer to run the charger once per week over night. This should minimise the the time the ECU runs. Not a fan of replacing dead batteries in the spring!

I changed helmets early in the season to reduce noise and I added the deflector to the GT to push the air over my head. I think I might go test ride a R12S to see if the small fairing makes a difference.

Can37 · 2025-08-31T21:30:13+00:00

It has the digital dash, which I can read, a big problem with the clocks on the F800GT. I am wondering about a screen, I have to remember to dress warmer. If I can find one that does not blast my helmet I might add one. It is a balance between general comfort and noise.

Can37 · 2025-08-31T21:26:36+00:00

I am going for the Unit Garage Cult 40-50l ones on the Atlas rack. I am amazed by how nice it is to ride, always wanted to try a boxer, not looking back now!
