OK then,
9$ in gas to get to Sarnia.
13 $ to get 150km's into Quebec.
All from Toronto, home base.

This probably doesn't mean much to you guys but when I tell that to someone around here, (even other bike riders) they look at me like I'm a lier.

To put things in perspective for our American members, fuel in Canada is ~$4 per gallon (depending on location).

I have to agree with pumpkin. A typical fill-up is $4.50 and about 1.6 gallons for me.

I just put $50 in my jeep today too.

How about one of those disposible air horns people use on boats and at sporting events. I think they run about $5.00 at discount stores.

just zip tie it some place that does not inhibit controle of the bike.

Not to hijack, but Polygon, what have you been up to lately? Any distance on the Zongshen (do you still own it?)?

IronFist · 09-25-2007, 07:24 PM

I've tried to figure a way to rig up an air horn like that to my horn button under my left thumb. What I'm likely to do is go down to the bike shop and pick up something from a bigger bike cheap. It has to be louder than what I got stock. Meeep Meeeep :oops: Still looking for risers and a tank.

You can get an air horn kit for as little as $15 at Harbor Freight. It comes with a relay so you can use your existing horn button. The compressor is a bit on the large size though.
