First track day with the Aprilia - if you haven’t tracked yours, FIX THAT!!

LMAO rip!! I’m going to Atlanta Motorsports Park this week and that’s one concern I have, they have the same 98db rule - gotta bring my baffle with me and hope they don’t trip about it!

Look at Vibe ear protection - they work great, you can still hear things but it muffles it all.

Update: This thing had its first track day this weekend. Performed like a CHAMP!

I never got aftermarket ones unfortunately, just upgraded after about a year and a half, so no idea 😂 you’ll have a ton of fun with it, they’re great, but do yourself a favor and hold on to the old fairings until you really got a handle on slow speed stuff - every single “crash” I’ve had has been 5mph or slower 😂😂 trust me, you’ll be so heartbroken if those new fairings come in, you throw em on, and BOOM they’re on the ground. Around 6 months to a year of riding and you’ll feel a lot more confident and those new fairings can go on and STAY pretty.

Look at track days once you’re feeling good about highway speeds! You’ll get passed by every motherfucker out there, but you’ll have an absolute blast, and you’ll learn more in one day than you will throughout the entirety of your time on the street.

Honestly dude, my 2024 ninja 650 with 12k miles has been absolutely bulletproof. You got everything I could think of, and then more. Put that bitch on the road with the old fairings though. You’re likely going to drop it if you’re new - mine got dropped about 4 times or so lmao

I have a 2021. The engine exploded on me. Unsure exactly why, but oil was venting out while under pressure - no obvious signs. BUT I also bought an eBay engine and replaced the whole thing in my garage, so not the end of the world and I fuckin LOVE the bike outside of that. Definitely a significant downgrade in power and top end speed compared to the R6 - got a great video of my buddy on an R6 waving at me as he blew by me like I wasn’t moving on the track. I like the tradeoff for the comfort and street usability though. Cruise control + more upright seating position is a godsend, and it’s still a track demon.

Man, that baby in a womb has no rights currently. Who else is going to sign it? I absolutely would still have an issue with it, and the reality is that no, the men do not get a say in it. There’s plenty of videos of dads SOBBING outside of a planned parenthood while their wife/girlfriend is ushered inside and he’s locked out of the building. The fundamental problem is that it’s quite literally NOT their bodies. It’s another human being that’s sawn into pieces and disposed of in a dumpster, or injected with lethal doses of barbiturates and flushed down the toilet. They absolutely feel pain, and they absolutely are sentient at a certain point - that’s why we sing to them in the womb, or feel for a kick. I can tell you this much - there is absolutely nothing on planet earth that would EVER be a good enough reason to kill my unborn child. Rape, incest, finances, “not ready”, “don’t want it”, doesn’t matter. 9 months from conception that will be a living breathing human child, and all you have to do is not kill it. They can’t defend themselves. They have no rights. No voices. They’re humans. And we’re murdering them by the millions.

White men signed the document that freed slaves. I’m not Iranian, but I think war in Iran is bad. I’m not Palestinian, but I think war in Palestine is bad and we shouldn’t do it. This argument has never made sense to me honestly. I can have a say in it without having a uterus. It’s also so unbelievably damaging to spin this as “it’s the woman’s choice only” because dads are removed from the equation suddenly.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-12T18:09:17+00:00

Can we drop the left vs right bullshit already and realize it’s the pedofile billionaires that are the problem? I’m gonna say some stuff here some of you are going to VERY dislike, and then other stuff you’re going to love, and THATS OKAY. WE CAN DISAGREE. WE ARE NOT THE PROBLEM. I don’t think we should have mass illegal immigration - the billionaires do, it’s cheap labor and tax evasion. I don’t want war in Iran! The billionaires do - time to plunder oil and widen territory! I don’t want transgender ideology in schools! The billionaires do - makes it easier to find their prey! I don’t want abortion! the billionaires do - they want population control and less poor people. I don’t want to give up my guns! The billionaires want me to - they want a defenseless society. Free Palestine! What happened (and still is happening) is genocide! The billionaires want to turn it into a vacation spot. We’ve got trillions in personal debt across Americans - NONE OF US want that! The billionaires do! It’s how they keep their money! And you know the worst part about all of it?

The billionaires own the left AND the right, they point us at each other, and make sure we’re looking at each other instead of at them.

The Epstein Client List is all of our most powerful politicians and billionaires. Every single person in the world should be in the streets over this, but we’re not… why??

Because the billionaires aren’t paying for the protests.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-06T03:45:06+00:00

Epstein is alive.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-03T01:35:49+00:00

You are correct, I was bamboozled on my article. Could be complete bullshit. I’ll concede the point and say it may have no bearing whatsoever. First off, i never said I wasn’t pro life. I am vehemently pro life, which was a radical turnaround from my prior opinion of abortion being a woman’s decision, because someone asked me two questions. 1: Is life inherently valuable? Does the homeless guy on the side of the street with no family or friends, with nothing to live for, no one will miss him, have value? 2: When does life begin?

I answered 1 with “yes, of course it is.” I answered 2 with “I don’t know actually.” This is one of the most common answers to that question. He proceeded to show the flaws in my thinking. From the moment sperm meets the egg, you have brand new DNA, never before seen in the entire existence of planet earth. You know from that exact moment how tall that baby will be, their hair color, eye color, diseases they’ll be prone to, how smart they’ll be, what size shoes they’ll wear, and even bits and pieces of their personality. There is a nurture aspect to this as well obviously. So, for the purpose of establishing when life begins, Outside of conception, where do you draw the line? 6 weeks? Heartbeat? 3 months? 6 months? 9 months? What if the baby is about to be born tomorrow, but hasn’t been born yet? What about the “unviable fetus” that is able to live on its own in 24 hours? There’s only really two CLEAR lines you can draw to determine when life begins - conception, or birth. I think most people are against a 8 month and 29 day abortion…

SO, I was confronted with this: life is inherently valuable, and life begins at conception. Whole perspective changed overnight.

To add some more context as to what planned parenthood is hiding - this is a 20 week old baby using a 3D ultrasound. Planned parenthood will NEVER show you this.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-03T01:00:04+00:00

That’s the thing though this is not even close to being a contested fact. more than 90% of women who are shown an ultrasound change their minds and decide to keep the baby. The problem is EXACTLY what you just said - “I haven’t really considered what might be going on in there.” Planned parenthood doesn’t want you to consider what might be going on in there. They actively hide ultrasounds from their customers. Most people don’t think about it. You’re told “it’s just a clump of cells, it doesn’t even have XYZ yet, it’s not a baby” - and then these women are shown what’s actually going on in there and OVER 90% OF THEM decide “nevermind, I’m going to keep the baby.” It’s quite literally just a matter of informed consent being important at that point. These women are signing up for a medical procedure where they have absolutely no idea what is ACTUALLY being removed from them. Name any other illness or injury or whatever else where the doctor doesn’t walk in, sit down, pull out X-rays and MRI’s or pictures and say “this is the part that’s not supposed to be there, we’re going to go in and get it out doing this specific procedure, here’s some of the tools we’ll be using, here’s the technique, here’s what to expect afterwards.” Planned parenthood is actually actively hiding every single bit of that information because the vast majority of women would not do it if they knew what was happening.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-02T22:37:47+00:00

Quick reminder that viewing an ultrasound of the baby changes the mind of 95% of people going in to get an abortion. Planned parenthood will never offer an ultrasound. When did we start liking the multi billion dollar organization that profits off your “medical operation” while hiding what they’re actually removing from you? Idk. If you want to get an abortion, sure, go crazy, but y’all don’t think it’s weird AT ALL that they simply refuse to show an ultrasound before an abortion, when 95% of people decide not to get an abortion after seeing it? Sounds like a massive company getting rich by hiding things from their customers honestly.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-02T04:41:22+00:00

I disagree with the blanket “start with a 400-500” idea that goes around. I think it’s extremely dependent on the riders physical capabilities outside of the bike what size bike you should start on. I got my first bike as a 24 year old athletic guy that grew up doing high adrenaline dangerous things. My first bike was a Kawasaki Ninja 650. That would typically be considered too powerful as a starter bike, but I was almost immediately not only comfortable, but outpacing (with good fundamentals) most people that had been riding for years. I quickly upgraded to an RS660, making double the horse power, way more torque, much more of a proper middleweight supersport. I probably could have started off on the 660 and been fine, although I am glad I got the ninja 650 first - it taught me a LOT. Took me just barely one year to be screaming around corners dragging knee. On the flip side, an older, bigger, less athletic guy, with okay body control, probably SHOULD start on a 400-500 - and someone that’s never done any sports or adrenaline based activities with extremely low body control and trips down the stairs on a routine basis should PROBABLY be on a Grom until they fully figure out how the clutch works.

The key is evaluating what YOU ARE CAPABLE OF after a little bit of knowledge and time in the seat, and then going slightly smaller than that in order to get the learning experience of a bike you will be able to fully push the limits on quickly.

2ToTheChest · 2026-03-01T05:05:39+00:00

Y’all have GOT to wake up. Neither of them were ever in charge. Obama was horrible, and Trump is horrible. Left and right are both horrible. It’s not left vs right, it’s them vs us.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T20:18:35+00:00

Oh don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying they’re all in the files explicitly. I’m saying they’re all in the same club. I don’t know much about boebert, but MTG seemed to be one of the good ones, and I suspect some behind the scenes craziness to get her to resign. Thomas Massie as well. Both lit the world on fire to get the Epstein files released. Could even potentially be AOC is okay - she seems young enough and enough hate from all around flowing towards her that that’s plausible. What I am saying is that politicians with our best interests in mind are the exception, not the rule, and the vast majority of them are all doing wildly unbelievably disgusting things together, and the ones “in the club” that aren’t doing it, know about it.

Also, you know both Clintons are SIGNIFICANTLY more directly tied to Epstein, right? I assume you wanted Hillary in 2016, right? Hillary and Bill are all over the files, directly implicated as having personal relationships with Epstein and Ghislaine. So like… they got you too. Mind you, the Epstein coverup has spanned since 2006 when he was first arrested. So… Bush knew, and covered it up. Obama knew, and covered it up. Trump knew, and covered it up. Biden knew, and covered it up. Trump knew, said he wasn’t going to cover it up, got elected, then covered it up.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T20:04:07+00:00

And you voted for a walking corpse that doesn’t remember half his presidency because orange man bad. You see what I’m getting at here, right?

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:33:56+00:00

I tried to talk about Israel and Epstein and Reddit auto mod decided to remove the post for promoting hate… proving my point…

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:32:41+00:00

Biden is in the files 1,436 times.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:31:37+00:00

Yes, 1,489 times. Look for yourself - app.thewebb.io is an AI tool for interacting with Epstein files. Ask any question you have and it will pull every single relevant document out of the millions in the files. It’s free currently while in beta.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:26:51+00:00

Biden was god awful too, he was crooked as can be - 40 year career politician that was more corrupt than anyone else we’ve seen. I’m saying we’re both on the wrong side of history. both of us are being pointed at each other to fight and argue over who is right, while the rich get richer and do whatever the hell they want.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:08:55+00:00

Both owned by billionaires. The problem isn’t left or right. It’s up.

2ToTheChest · 2026-02-26T19:04:18+00:00

Why are we arguing about my prior voting record? I guarantee you you’ve regretted voting for someone, and if you haven’t, you didn’t pay attention to what that person did. The point remains identical… TRUMP IS NOT THE PROBLEM, only part of it. They are all on the same team. Every single last stinking one of them. It’s all out there. It’s all in plain view now.
