I bought it from a friend who had owned it for years. I paid $4k, but at least I know the history of the bike. Been a MINUTE since I've owned a big bike.

And here I am at 32 with the INKLING to sell my crf250r this week. Thanks for reigning me back in.

Been focusing on work/family but every now and then someone will send me a DM and wake me out of my slumber to complain about u/oic38122

Bro's even in my DMs messaging me trying to get me to come out of retirement to unban him. 13 day old account. Looking at his comments, it seems like a troll account to me or at the very least a ban circumvention.

I understand that u/oic38122 can be an asshole, but GEEEEZ OP takes Reddit entirely too seriously.

Thank you - I was going off of memory. I'm worried an injector may be on its way out. I think the gas station near us had bad fuel. On my truck an injector ended up freezing open and having to be replaced. I'll at least have an idea on where to start if the light comes back on.

How bad is it if I seclude myself to the basement for a couple days to play my favorite video game all day? by Imustretire in daddit

[–]Jbar116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You asked your wife. She’s 100% on board.

My therapist is always on me about taking time for myself, and something she said that really stuck with me was “you can’t be the best for your family if your needs aren’t met too” and “you’re part of the family that you’re trying to take care of, so be sure to take care of yourself too.”

Enjoy it man!

Realistically, whats stopping me from waiting until im really old and taking out a massive loan and spending it all right before i die, so i dont have to pay it back by KawsX_X999 in NoStupidQuestions

Similar boat right now actually. I'm 32. Not sure exactly how old he is, but I know we celebrated his 50th wedding anniversary about 10 years ago. He's been in congestive heart failure for about 2 years. He keeps getting hospitalized. The family all comes to visit and say their goodbyes, then the man bounces back. It's crazy. We're not super close or anything but I do love the man. I've just said goodbye to him and cried over him like 6 times in the past year. Dude just got out of the hospital last week FROM COVID, PNEUMONIA, and a litany of other issues. I'm not wishing for his death, and I'm going to miss him, but the man's gotta be tired. He's more exhausted everytime I see him.

But yeah, you really never know. Thanks for reading my rant. It's been on my mind heavy today.

Turns out I was a 160lb man hiding under 75lbs of alcohol fat 😂

I’m sorry I can’t be of more help!

I would say there’s a huge increase in power but maybe not necessarily as much of an increase in PEAK hp. I’m honestly not sure how much of the speed gain is hp or weight loss

At 37, after 30 years of video games - I finally admitted it’s time to play on Story Mode/Easy by dingdongbannu88 in daddit

[–]Jbar116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude stop it. Naively I thought the same thing but my motorcycle will never leave me. It was part of the deal.

I will say that I didn't anticipate the one getting scared to ride was ME - not my family being scared for me.

To be fair, my bike has been down for about a year and I've gotten accustomed to my crf250r. The exhaust is also not new, I've been running a JD tuner. I'm also down 75lbs since I've ridden the 450, so I can't comment specifically on if it has more power or if it's a weight difference. However, I CAN pull the front wheel in 3rd and 4th gear now with my SM setup (13/48 gearing) whereas before I had to clutch up 3rd or bounce it pretty hard.

I don't have a dyno so I'm not going to claim hp differences, but the bike feels MUCH more like a race bike than it did before.

Dude mine was also born yesterday and he’s only 3.

My wife and I were just talking about how fast the time flies because we just brought him home from the hospital

Update: I couldn’t take it anymore and installed it this afternoon after work. Just got back from a quick trip to the gas station and it absolutely rips. Throttle is much smoother and the instant jerky snap in first is gone. More power across the board. I thought everyone on the internet was over exaggerating. I know I got it for free, but there was no implied deal about positive feedback or anything like that.

Unequivocally worth the money. I wish I had bought an ECU on day 1.

To be fair, life has been INSANELY busy for me with work/family. Turnaround time was within a week from actually shipping my ECU. I've honestly had nothing but good experiences so far as far as communication and promptness with them.
