What does it cost to have your Drivers Licence renewed?
kevin-vic-b.c. replied to SilvrT's topic in Watering Hole
The enhanced DL permits me to travel across the Canada/ US Boarder without my passport when I travel by road or ferry between the two countries. AS I love to take off on nice summer days and trip over to Washington State to ride the fantastic roads there, this saves me taking my passport. I have always worried about what to do with my passport when I got off my bike to walk a beach or hike the trails of a beautiful park I find on my travels between the two countries. I feel keeping my drivers licence in my pocket will be safer than leaving the passport in my motorcycle. And of course now they announced that staring next month the licence will be doubly enhanced as it will start also serving as our government medical services card, that may become just a cash grab there but I see their point behind doing it. Now your medical card will have to be renewed and will have your photo on it to help prevent fraud. -
all well here but my wife only had 2 of her 7 daycare kids today.... all sick.

$75 for the five years and an extra $50 for the Enhanced version last week. -
Not just a winter problem... I had a Suzuki gs500... it was for the kids to ride you know.... and one of the daycare kids my wife looks after dropped a piece of sidewalk chalk down the pipe. Well chalk does not really burn but with a cup of warm water added and soaked over night, then a long ride we never saw that chalk again. But be aware at all times, you never know.

What are the chances you have a front chrome bezel to fit the 86. I believe it is called the Mole. -

I put LED strips on the back of my V-Strom that I bought at a local auto parts store. They are flat with 3M sticky tape on back, pre-wired with about 5 ft of wire and I put heat and shrink over the wires. The black heat shrink all but disappears on my black saddle bag rails so should be easy enough to hide on the 2nd Gens. I would bet they are 26 gauge wire.... no bigger. -
Naaaa down load it from Kobo in about a second and a half.... think of the good of the earth... green house gasses to drive there and back, if you drive the street lights have to work, the parking patrols have to drive around hunting for you. Much better for the world to just down load it. I have "smart TV" a blue ray with wifi, Shaw, our cable company If you managed to hit their limit and I do know one fellow that has managed to do it, his hobby is downloading, which is legal in Canada..... up loading is not, all they do is send you a note and say hey pay us more and keep enjoying our service. We admit we do need more Lessons from our kids on how to make all this stuff work... Nothing is free. We pay about $125.00 a month for internet and TV service from Shaw.

The question is.... Does the exhaust Have to be removed to re and re the starter or was this just a convenient photo op ? -

But when the wife is in danger... or any loved one .... I don't blame anyone for protecting them. I know I would... I don't own a gun but if it was my family... I would use what ever I had to use.

It was their final grade assignment for their university course. The goal was 100,000 hits or something similar and we the public critiqued them so they knew where they had to improve. The two biggest things were the crooked wing of the bird and no shadow of the child under the bird as it flew off.

That kind of construction was not uncommon back then, the "best" way to go would be 3/8 (or thicker) plwood over the existing..... fixing the loose ends will be futile...in my opinion. I do not know what the weather norm is in your area but OSB is prone to mold. taking it all off is not necessary either, that just leaves you with extra labor and a dumping bill for the lumber unless you burn it.
