But yeah, take a copy of your stat declaration and mail it to ICBC with a $7 cheque explaining you're asking for a vehicle registration search and a few things could happen
1) They find a registered owner and send you their name and address. You send them a registered letter (retain receipt) requesting that they have a registration reprinted and sign transfer papers and if you have no answer within 30 days you bring that in.
2) They find *no* registered owner. You bring that paperwork in and they register the bike for you
That's been my experience. *Some people I have met* have had their insurer tell them the bike requires inspection first. They haven't asked that of me, but that might be because they're following an older process.
lol not even an inspection? And here I bought cheapo DOT turn signals for nothing. /s
(incandesent ones so I could slap 6v bulbs in)
I got *this* registered
I *may* have repainted the motor and replaced the fuel tank with one from the junker.
(and a new headlight)
Sorry for the shite picture, I'm not going outside it's cold lol
lol.
Not to mention turn signal requirements were a bit... fuzzy
At this point I moreso want to register it just so I could resell it for more
curiously, at least for ontario, it looks like the *best* way to go from zero for an e-moto is finding a pre-2007 dirtbike frame converted/registered for road use, and 'transplanting' the build plate/bit of tube to a bomber frame - far cheaper insurance than non-converted bikes and no moped/LSM speed/power limitations
That would be a bit... marginal here lol
@Orange_C lol at transplanting the plate.
"its the same bike, I just had to replace... "
<every part on the bike listed>
Though there's nothing saying you couldn't convert a motorcycle frame
"oh and 90% of the frame. damn rust"
What's original? "about 20% of the frame and the front forks"
"Yea the vin plate holder was still structural"
"And by the front forks, I mean the oil in the front forks"
tbh, the TC office here asked if my car was the blue VW, when the paperwork said 'orange volvo'
so im pretty sure theyd miss small details like the entire frame of a bike
Back when they had photo radar here, my dad was ticketed for speeding
In the photo: White ford pick-up
My dad's car: 1979 Renault 12 station wagon, in green
Close enough.

"These are the same picture!"
its fine, send the ticket to both
infact, tickets for everyone!
Literally the last green R12 "Nordic" model in Canada back then
chances are 10% of you own a white ford pickup anyway.
*swings dead cat*
*thump*
"Found one!"
next week we send out tickets to everyone with a lifted pickup.
canada post will be backed up for weeks here
and by that, I mean we send out tickets to everyone, but the description will be lifted pickup
*side eyes my Aveo*
Oh, sold my brother a project, I'll post it in #internal-combustion
Friendly reminder for noobs like me operating a drill press: don't hold small metal with your hands. Coulda been much worse
Drill press don't stop. Lesson learned the easy-ish way
Ow
That looks like it hurt a little
You didn't have a vise?
I guess a vice would have been feasible. Was only using clamps before and it could never reach it. But I think I could have made a vice work
Job's done now though
Right now your only vice is alcoholism
@Trenavix Yep my brother showed me that day one
drill grabbed the work as it went through the bottom
spun around, sliced up his hand
bent the drill bit 45 degrees, spun around on the drill bit shaking the entire drill press
then snapped off and flung across the shop, hitting a wall and leaving a dent.. in the steel shop wall
its also possible for it to catch,start spinning and u reflex pull up and it comes loose while spinning, with a possible yeet at you
Or just snaps the drill bit, like above üòõ
dunno whats worse, snapped bit or the work piece beelining into ur stomach/nads
or possibly both at same time
you should always at the very least use something to stop the reaction torque, if not clamp it down securely.
also
avoid cloth or soft anything
no gloves
or if u do something like latex gloves thatll just rip off (hopefully) and not turn ur wrist into a brand new collet
LOL.
yea I don't know why you'd wear gloves at a drill press.
these are nifty gloves for working on grinding/etc small parts btw: https://trugrit.com/product/thumb-guard-large-201-395/
only reason iv worn gloves is latex gloves to avoid lubricant spraying around and going to my hands making work more difficult. thou they were super thin
iv made some like those XD
yea. I was tempted too, but then I saw they where $1 each
tru
but i had old gloves that had the palms ruined etc
ah
👀
-_-
@Black Moons right?
This is from the website of a superglue company
You need a few bottles for that one
-_-

i noticed a tiny amount of water inside but that shouldn't have done too much damage
Doh.
although in the last image you can see there is a hairline crack in the silicone where it meets the metal so....
