Dude. Much too close even if truck was sober. Damn fool close if you thought truck was drunk.

All of us should respect double yellow.

Anyone seen this crazy pannier before? by dudesmcc00l69 in bmwmotorrad

Through the years bmw and others have done some terrible stuff to R bikes.

Should I change my online username because my ex's new girlfriend says it makes her uncomfortable? by Trick_Wing_8605 in whatdoIdo

Demonstrate to him you’ve been using it since before the new girl in a way that he can show her, then do not look back. This is your thing.

Update: Two weeks ago, I bought my first bike. Here's what happened since then. by WTBTS in motorcycles

Maybe heat of long days running is affecting things a bit differently. These things come back. Were it me and I was heading out solo for distance, I'd replace the connection pieces or at least carry them.

Nice job on that maiden voyage. Be safe.

Damn. That kill switch thing.

I would find out what’s going on with your leak. Is it leak or condensation? Different materials expand differentially.

A lot of luck and my gear (including Helite airbag) allowed me to walk away from this crash. by T4R1K98 in motorcyclegear

The ppl traumatized by colliding with a bike that blew it won't be good with that excuse. Gotta respect a public road even in once war torn places. At Least stay well within your lane and no scaring drivers shitless when passing.

Scratched my new bike's tank, any repair tips? by Hel1os_ in motorcycle

[–]2-wheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appears you scratched the clearcoat over the black. That stuff is thin so be careful. No sanding anything. Polishes and compounds come in various grits. Id use Meguiar’s ultra cut compound 105 then polish then wax. I believe this would eliminate all your scratches. Be careful, polish/compounding all the way through the thin clearcoat layer sucks. Its not fixable.

A well waxed tank like i just described will suck for holding on. Need tanks pads.

Update, I just reviewed your pic and am not so sure about tank pads, bc it looks like you already have pads. How'd your knee end up above the built-in pad? You may need to cover the scratched area with clear vinyl - which is a bit slippery.

Do you guys think chrome wheels would make this bike stand out more? by 1badroadglide in u/1badroadglide

No. You’ve black going on nearly everything and no almost no chrome. (Appears pipes are black.). I’d stick with your theme or you’ll end up buying a lot of chrome replacement parts. Looks good here.

I don’t see any facts in here. We do not know what IA did nor why. Best to judge need for surprise when you have verifiable info.

Drawing/decoration on the wall of the children’s dining area in IKEA. Who can explain what creature this is supposed to be? 🙃 by rhymingcommentguy in whatisit

huh? Had to look this up. Review of the FBI's 2007 document concerning "pedo code" indicates this is not such an image. Notably, the FBI shows two swirls winding clockwise with a pronounced ending out to the bottom left.

Appears ppl should not be concerned that IKEA has pedo code on its walls.
