Sweet car. The only things that bother me is that awful button system for the climate controls and such and that the tail lights look too much like the current gen Camaro. I really hope it is one of those "it looks better in person" 

Looks good. I was reading the comments and someone called it a "diet bro-dozer" lmao

impressive, where is this in ? northern Quebec ? 

I think it is in Banff, which is south western Alberta. They were calling for snow there this morning.

There was a link to a Key and Peele skit in the original article. Pretty funny.

I am home now and the colour has gone back to normal and it is not so dark anymore. Just a white smoke haze everywhere and the taste of ash. 

It has gotten considerably worse since the last picture. The picture doesn't doesn't do it justice but you can see that the street lights are on now. 

The smoke is pretty brutal here in Edmonton. You can't see the sun and there is a really thick green haze

I have been daily driving a right hand drive 5spd for coming up on 4 years now. Love rowing gears. Granted most of my commute is highway. But I don't mind driving in the city with it.

Lots of companies make VR stuff now. There is a cardboard set that just holds your phone in it lol. There are a few options that just holds your phone and your phone becomes the screen you use. Oculus is another large company of VR tech. I believe they need a host like a PC or the like. The PlayStation VR requires a PlayStation 4 to work. 

I have not used them myself unfortunately but I have heard very mixed reviews. So I have a couple friends that have a set. One loves them. Say they are awesome. He has the PlayStation 4 pro with the VR Goggles. The PlayStation it's self runs $400 cad. Then the VR package runs another $400 cad. Says games are sweet and he also takes advantage of the VR porn lmao.

My other friend got a set of VR goggles for a cell phone. He can't take anymore than 15 minutes before he feels like puking. Fucks with his brain and it cannot differentiate between real life and virtual reality so it kills his equilibrium. His daughter and other half love them.

Both guys are in their early 30s. 

There is a video of a guy trying them out in a mall. He is rock climbing and there is a tv screen show everyone what he sees. Well he misses a hand placement in the game and falls. He collapsed in real life because his brain thought it was real.

I highly suggest you go to a VR "cafe" and try it there before you spend big money and find out your brain says fuck you lol.

Holy fuck, really?

Anne Frank's diary is a famous book detailing her childhood spent hiding from the Nazi's because she was jew. Now where does a drum set fit into that?

In the attic right next to the bookcase entrance lmao

Well it is not a sled but I took the engine out of the old klr I bought. This afternoon I tore the top end apart in search of where all my oil was disappearing to. 

Had a friend help me over video chat as I have never had an engine apart other than a lawnmower in high school. 

Piston looks good, cylinder looks decent. But the valves are highly suspect lol.

I think I got extremely lucky and it will only take valve clean and seals, ring kit and a cylinder hone and should be back on top

Dude, if it burns that much oil, the motor is done.  But for 900 bucks I guess just run her into the ground

Ya it definitely is a little excessive but he still dragged it down to Arizona all the way from central/Northern British Columbia. I am not 100% if he is accurate. But I will pull it apart and see what's going on. May just need some rings and a hone. Valve seals are a possibility as well.

$900?   You are going to have a blast on it. They are great dirt road bikes. Don't even think of taking it in a pit to play

Yes, $900. The engine sounds good. Unfortunately it burns a bit of oil. Buddy said about 1qt to a tank of fuel.

He takes it down to Arizona in the winter and lives out his 5th wheel and rides the bike. He comes back to Canada for the summer. So I don't know if the extra heat and the more "aggressive" riding he was a contributor?

Well too late now...
