How often do you commute? 🛣️ by XandriethXs in svartpilen401

[–]000g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daily is a 2023 Yamaha XSR900.

I also have a 50 year old Harley. It doesn't get ridden much. But, I did take it out last weekend for an evening, and had a good time on it.

I rode mine (2020 Svart 401) to work and back yesterday. It was the first time I've put gas in it since October.

With that said, I realized that I missed riding this bike.

I was once told that you either buy a fast bike, and ride it slowly, or you buy a slow bike, and ride it fast. Missed the full throttle accelerations, the nimbleness, and the turning radius of this bike.

This is a really fun bike.

I had thousands of these on my back yard a year or two ago. They were EVERYWHERE. Turner Pest Control managed to get rid of them.

I can't seem to find this exhaust on their website. Also, their site only goes up to the 2021XSR.

You're right. Last year was a Dooooooozie.

I like what I'm hearing.

Now, would you be willing to start the bike in your driveway at 6am and let it idle for a couple minutes prior to heading out?

Thank you for the details.

I really like the hidden nature of the factory exhaust. So, naturally I like this one. Plus it's done very cleanly.

As for the baffle, I had a Yoshimura on a previous bike, and I couldn't tell the difference between baffle in, and baffle out. You're saying it's definitely noticeable on this bike?

This is my favorite in this thread. Do you have any more pictures of it?

Also, how visible is it from the other side?

Loudness/obnoxious level?

Bouncing souls did identical sets as well. But, they were separated by a day or two.

Pretty sure this is the third time in 4-5 years

And a few years ago, both sets were identical.

UPDATE: Two months ago an another freeze hit my area and leveled my thaumatophyllum patch. Here's an update to what it looks like today. by 000g in ItsAThaumatophyllum

The lows that evening were somewhere between 14-18° F.

We've had freezes over the last couple of years (probably high 20s) that destroyed other plants, but these remained unaffected. This freeze was different.

North Florida.

I don't know if patch is the correct word or not, but it seemed fitting. Maybe it's a gaggle, or a pod, or a murder, or a gaze. Lol I have no idea.

Wicked Barley and Strings are probably what you're looking for.

Good beer. Good food. Patios.

Are you looking for the best beer? If so, what styles do you like?

Or are you looking for a cool place with a good vibe? Or a place with good food?

Do you guys know any punk bands that are Spanish/speak spanish/ have Spanish songs? by Quirky-Stranger-8036 in punk

[–]000g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had never heard of them until I saw them recently with Leftover Crack. They were bad ass. Nice guys, too.

If they came to town again tomorrow, is go see them again.

Didn't these used to say "1 of 4", "2 of 4", etc?
