    1. If you don't own any bitcoin yet you're an idiot. The last 5 years have proven the fragility of the dollar and our financial system.

    1. Give me a sec to watch it. I worked an overtime shift today and have to get my bike situation dealt with.

    2. OK It's pretty long and they mean well but they missed the point. Yes the Bacon brothers were at one time working for the UN. However, Jonathon was always tight with Larry Amero. The Red Scorpions worked for the UN. Jamie tried to tax them and Corey Lal said go f*ck yourself.

      Jamie wanted Anton to do the hit but Anton wouldn't. Anton confiscated their guns so DK, Jamie Bacon's next body guard and the others knew they were going in against unarmed victims. Jamie Bacon couldn't go to the gym without a bodyguard. Jamie often betrayed former body guards.

      The Bacon brothers switched sides. After the Surrey Six, the Red Scorpions started working for the HAs not the UN. The Independent Soldiers were also taken over by the Hells Angels. The Bacon brothers were idiots. I can't waste my time on documentaries trying to glorify them for clickbait.

      Jamie Bacon is now in Witness Protection and trashes the club along with Blaze.

  5. If this one died and it wasn't a good idea to sink more $$ into it, what would you ride next?

    1. That's my dilemma. I might buy the same model and put my new pipes on that or I could find one with low miles that was in an accident and swap the motor over. I really liked that bike. I don't want a Harley that looks like a Goldwing.

      I was going to get a Triumph Tiger adventure bike but I think I'll just buy a new model of what I have. Those pipes on that bike was the most fun I've ever had.

    2. Probably the way to go if you like what you had, plus now you have a parts bike!

    3. That would be nice but I don't really have the room for it. I figured out what I'm going to do. I'm going to take the new pipes off the old bike, buy a brand new version of the same model and put the custom pipes on the new bike. But I'm not going to buy the new bike until we move to Alberta. That way I don't have to transport it or drive out there three times and I also avoid Provincial sales tax.

  6. Smart plan. Might be able to save the initial value drop when buying brand new if you can find that person who bought it new a year or two ago and is now selling it super low mileage. I seem to remember this is a bit more common out in the prairies with a limited riding season than in BC, and maybe even better prices overall but it's been a while since I owned a bike or was looking at listings.

    1. Yeah I think low miles is the key. Nowadays it's cheaper to buy new than rebuild. I have a Suzuki Boulevard. I can buy one brand new for 10 thousand. A new Triumph Tiger or Harley Fat Bob costs 24 thousand. I can buy a Boulevard and a Timbersled for the same price and still have money left over. I love the Cobra pipes on the Boulevard.
