I’ve gotten a couple of regulars. They’re fine, but they lost shape (especially at the collar) relatively quickly.

And you can get a stand alone international sports package with BeIn Sports for $10 / month.

Definitely looking forward to following your project. Last summer I kept watching a decent ‘66 convertible keep dropping in price week by week. All I could do was watch and wish. But come on, it’s perfect for a family of 6, right?
I’ll likely go to my grave without seeing a better nose wheelie.
Or have the consultant / organization that helps them collect feedback explain to the dealership and manufacturer how that data should be used properly.
I agree. I can’t stand 1-10 rating scales. They are difficult for the respondent to answer accurately and they introduce too much error. Why not use a scale that people can actually relate to? Exceptional / Good / Acceptable / Poor / Very Poor. Assign them point values if you want to (5-4-3-2-1) so that you can still…
I’ve only experienced Hupkonzert in Italy. Like you said... weddings and soccer matches in particular. Also randomly in traffic. Of course, our friends across the pond use their horns a lot more often (and, usually, more effectively) than we do.
For the first time I can remember, my 2000 Monster 900 just started on the first try after sitting through the winter. I should still do some maintenance before a ride, though.
Excellent write up.
Starred for fellow Badger.
I work there now and the scooters are taking over. There’s more and more parking for them all the time. Fortunately, I’ve still got a small motorcycle parking lot behind my building. I occasionally see a Grom back there. Parking any vehicle on campus is ridiculously expensive, but the…
Chevy Tracker... which she appropriately named “Poo.” (not “Pooh”)
I keep thinking I’ll sell mine (1st gen), but I never do. Too useful.
Mine’s been quite reliable. I’ll tell you what, though, reaching plug #6 isn’t much fun.
My local craigslist....... can’t tell you how many times I’ve clicked on this one.
Huh. Since we hadn’t seen any follow up, I had assumed that they were fictitious scenarios.
Sounds like me with my 2000 Monster 900. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wondered why I don’t just get a Japanese bike. But then you stand back and take a look and ... “It brought a smile to my face every time I saw it in the garage.”
I’ll definitely take a look. I don’t plan on replacing my Ducati Monster any time soon though. (Famous last words. It’s probably been planning on breaking down on me beyond repair for a while now.)
I don’t have the money for it (so I’m just another one of those guys on Jalopnik clamoring for a brown station wagon with a stick that will never actually buy one), but I kinda like the Octane. Sorry to hear they’re closing shop.
recently, these are what I’ve been looking at:
wagon, manual
Saab, manual
S80, V8
Plus I always throw in some Corvette, Camaro, Firebird manual searches and sort by lowest price.
I saw a new Volvo S90 yesterday and I was thinking that it’s pretty ridiculous that I haven’t ever even ridden in a Volvo before. (How is that possible?) Well, got that resolution checked off on day 1 ... bummed a ride home from a friend with an S60. Now I will continue to check craigslist for S80s with the Yamaha…
