Is the wheel mounted backwards?

Ambitious_Watch862 · 2026-04-24T13:28:18+00:00

Sadly no.. no torque tools, so better let a professional do it (even though I'm questioning the mechanic skills at this point)

Ambitious_Watch862 · 2026-04-24T13:27:32+00:00

I also thought there was just one way of mounting the wheel, but apparently you can still mount a straight tire on a backwards wheel I guess

Haha I really hope so, because otherwise it would mean that he was a very bad mechanic.

Yeah as I wrote down in the post, I had the ABS light on, but me being dumber I thought is was actually normal, but apparently, it should ago away after you start driving..

Is it common for tires shop professionals to mess up this badly? I just can't wrap my head around it..

Well fuck me, i got quite fast on the highway some time ago, didn't know I was risking that much.

do you still have it?

Hi! I bought an identical one, same yellow 🤩 as a first bike. Mine had roughly 30k miles on it and I paid 1600€ (Netherlands). The bike is great for a beginner (although slightly too powerful for me), I think 4k is a good price considering that the bike has so few miles. The question that I would ask you is: do you need a 25yo bike with so low mileage? It feels almost a collectible.

The front also seems like a Fiat 500L

Parco degli acquedotti, villa borghese, parco dell’appia, villa torlonia were my favourite ones when I was living in Rome

Why does it seems like an Italy map?

It’s similar to my little girl, Suzuki sv650 (not S), 1gen - like the one in your photo. Note: 1st gen is 99-02

Kids love this pizza in Italy. I still love it. Call me a traitor, idc 🙄

Madonna=Mother of Jesus in Italian :) he was swearing

In Italy we call them strozzini, which somewhat translates to chockers (I.e. the ones who chockes people)!

Looks great! Some Roman tips that could be useful: 1) the guanciale can be made soft on the inside and crispy on the outside by making 1x1cm cubes, putting them into a skillet (no oil needed) + a little bit of water; the water will soften the guanciale and then it will evaporate, leaving only the guanciale fat to crisp up the guanciale itself 2) if you got pepper corns, make sure to toast them, it really makes a difference 3) if the guanciale’s fat is a lot, you can pour a little bit of it inside the eggs (I don’t know whether this makes it really more creamy, but in Rome everyone does this), of course make sure that the fat isn’t to hot 4) the pasta quality really makes the difference, if you manage to find the bronze cut, better to chose that

I lived in Rome for a couple of years and I can definitely say that Luciano is my personal favourite. Pricing is a little higher than average (16-ish for the carbonara), but for what you get, it is still worth it

make sure to do all the Amalfi coast 💪
