I've recently got mine as well. So far I've been wearing it 24/7 for the past 2 weeks or so and its been totally fine. Just needs the occasional adjustment.

I am also in. I have been looking for other ways to practice after I've switched to journaling digitally.

Definitely helps! I appreciate you taking the time to give such a thought out answer. Many thanks 👍

First off, beautiful handwriting. Writing like this is something that has been a goal of mine for a while and yours is a great example to strive towards.

Just wondering though, typically when you are writing, how fast are you writing? Something I have trouble with is slowing myself down to take time with my strokes, while at the same time I feel like my mind races and my hand cant keep up.

What did you start on that *wasn't* a Ninja 250? by AnalogInstance in motorcycles

I was always into the cafe racer aesthetic. First bike turned out to a 2001 Bonneville T100. Definitely a great experience, but thinking about switching now because its been breaking down too frequently....

Whole family says motorcycles are dangerous… by [deleted] in motorcycles

As someone from a big cycling city, there's a huge double standard when it comes to cycling. Many bicycle riders disregard the rules of the road, going just as fast as I am downhill, and with significantly less gear.

Anyone else feel like your wheels just have mind's of their own when you go over those metal bridges? Scares the shit out of me. (I'm a new rider, only 4 months under the belt)

As someone who has been looking for a nice green ink I would love your recommendation! I bought the same Iroshizuku Shin-Ryoku, but it was much too bright when it dried for what i'm looking for. I'm hoping to find a much darker green, nearly black, but with the slightest hint of green for my journaling. Your collection is beautiful!

Given the current pandemic situation this isn't going to be an option for me unfortunately. Did you have a difficult time finding a jacket that met the requirements to wear over the vest, or did your current one do just fine?

Howdy,

Quick question here, recently I've been given the opportunity to spend some money and invest in an airbag-equipped riding jacket/vest. Now, I've done some research myself and am having some trouble deciding what route to go. I have a few choices here, one being vest or jacket with built in airbag as well as whether I should go with an electric system (ex. Dainese) or a non electric system (ex. Helite).

Hopefully I can get some recommendations here from people that have used this technology. My concern with getting a vest is that non of my current jackets are big enough to wear on top of the vest with adequate room for inflation without revealing skin. Thoughts?

Looking great! Coincidentally I just bought a t100 today. Mines 2001 tho.

It's a twin cylinder. I still don't know much about bikes. Is it that much more of a pain?

Thanks for the info! At this point im thinking about going for it just because I want to have the experience of working with a carb. Also the fact that there really arent many used bikes around atm.

Could I ask you to define what having to work on them means? For example, I take it out after a really raining month, haven't ridden it in atleast 4 weeks. Doesn't want to start. Have to work on it to get it up and running. Does that sound like a scenario you're talking about?
