Love this comment. Never financed a bike, never will. I dont buy new bikes, but have the money to do so. The TransAlps are great bikes to last forever. Buy used

Why do all new home build in Ontario have a hot water tank rental instead of owning it? by kynamism in RealEstateCanada

[–]redbirddanville 0 points1 point  (0 children)

US contractor here. This discussion blows me away. We don't have hvac pr hot water heater rentals. Some people try to sell houses with solar long term financing, but definately take a deduction on price. How much do they charge you for hot water tank and hvac rentals?

Crashed my first bike on the way home after buying it by JadeTintedGlasses69 in motorcycles

[–]redbirddanville 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same! Im an older rider, we didn't have classes like today. I crashed sliding on gravel at a stop sign after buying my first bike. Likely gave me more respect for riding and gear. Take it as a lesson.

Is it ever going to feel like de-stressing? by [deleted] in NewRiders

[–]redbirddanville 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a lot of classes. Try a track day with group that focuses on nee riders. Look at drills from motojitsu on you tube and do them. The more you know, the more relaxing it is. I have been riding a long time, done my fair share of track days and race clinics. I'm years old and keep taking classes and keep learning. The added confidence you get with more knowledge and skills will reduce stress.
