  1. Extra tax money safety. Once Brussels starts interfering again we might have to all give up.

  2. In 1982, while riding through Calgary, after working in lake Louise, I was passing by a Yamaha dealership. I was riding my bought new in Edmonton, 1981 650 Maxim when I spotted the brand new shiny black 750 Seca sitting on a small concrete pad used to showcase certain bikes. The Seca sported a red strip on either side of its cafe styled tank. It had just finished raining lightly, and water drops shimmered along its surfaced. I slowed down as quick as I could but had to drive up ahead to the nearest intersection and pull a U'ye. I stopped along side of what I thought was probably the most beautiful bike I had ever encountered over my 22 years of young life. Within 40 minutes, and after having traded in my 1 year old Maxim and writing a check for the difference (which I think was around a $1000), I sat upon my beautiful new XJ750 Seca and drove down the road to highway 2. Over the next three hours, I was the proudest and happiest I've ever been (marriage and children the only exemption)! I sold that bike only a year later, through tears, to help pay my way through college, it was in mint shape, of course. Not a scratch on it. Although I had managed to put nearly 8000 miles on the odometer! I never road again. Until last year when I found a 1982 Yamaha Seca 750, nearly perfect but repainted in a copper color. It had 38,000 kilometres on it but looked beautiful and sounded beautiful - just as I remembered it sounding - with a whirring, winding clatter. Coincidently, the bike was for sale in Calgary, where I first laid eyes and then acquired my first Seca. I drove to Calgary, paid exactly what I had sold my bike for, three decades earlier, and drove away, again down Hwy 2, in bliss. I will never sell it.

  3. Nah, trip-wire mechanism with blank shotgun shell. Cheap as, can make yourself and does a great job of convincing 'em to just fuck off, while they still can!

  4. Castor, mineral and synthetic. They are the base material of the oil. Castor wont mix with anything. Mineral and synthetic will mix in most cases. If they react it forms a gooey mix and sticks and blocks up the system. Not good.
