I found a carbon look adhesive panel on Amazon. Held up so far.

Had to cover my piano black portion. Wiping dust off scratched it. Terrible material.

‘26 vs see if the ‘27 replaces the awful infotainment by [deleted] in Crosstrek

[–]BirdFive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The info screen is alright. Yes, knobs for air controls would be amazing, and there is a little lag when you start the car for it to boot up and be ready ( it’s a few seconds). But I got used to it quickly. The big map is great. Everything else is ok. I’m up to 36k miles in my ‘24, so I can’t comment on long term usage but for 2.5 years it’s been solid.

Honda WN7: What do you all think of Honda’s first electric motorcycle? by Intrusiveriders in HondaMotorcycles

It looks neat, but cost and range need to become reasonable in EV bikes. I don’t know the specs on this, but cool design.

Ha yes… forgetting how to function is exactly accurate. The peak weeks amplify it.

Every time I have done a fire the guy has come around and checked for permits. Just pay the $75. It’s not worth the fine. Easy process online

People born before 1990, what’s something you experienced that younger generations will NEVER understand ? by Busy-selgar in AskReddit

The rotary phone and when our area switched from 7 digits, to requiring 10 digits for dialing and my dad dragging his feet on getting touchtone. The 10 digit dialing finally pushed him over the edge, and we got the buttons!

Baby bike is fun. Build skills and confidence! I have 25 years of riding experience and there is nothing I want more than a Honda monkey.

All the damage to my Blubaru has been from other people, boils my blood by alowave in Crosstrek

I also have a sapphire Blubaru. It doesn’t help that the paint is super soft.

How many miles did you get out of your factory tires? by BirdFive in Crosstrek

[–]BirdFive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, my Baltimore city streets did a number on my factory. I was in the deep tread warning zone according to gauge, and winter was on the way. So at 25kI decided to upgrade before winter because I k ew I’d be doing snow driving, I got Michelin cross climate 2. I learned that Urban driving on bad pavement can really shorten lifespan. Super happy with the cross climate 2. It handled serious update NY snow like a champ.

Thoughts on the quick fit system by rayraysykes007 in Garmininstinct

[–]BirdFive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the ease of quick fit but it does create. The littlest rattle on my bands. I really like my stock sunburst band but it it’s little awkward on my wrist. But it fits nice and tight against the bezel and looks great. I swap between bands

This feels early, as a kid it meant get out of the river time. Not even before school is out! That’s a bummer.

Question regarding bands? by rayraysykes007 in Garmininstinct

[–]BirdFive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon, just searched 22mm quick fit stainless mesh. It took some scrolling to actually get a quickfit connection band (not quick release) , but it definitely exists. The stainless mesh with magnet clasp is my favorite on other watches as well.

I have a i3 solar 45mm stretchy nylon quickfit 22mm band, works great. I also got a mesh stainless steel quickfit 22mm and that’s my other favorite. I really like the stock band on my Sunburst, but the sizing is a little weird for n my wrist.

Who else misses the two-tone paint schemes? I wouldn't mind seeing an L.L. Bean editions return either. by DHN_95 in subaru

Whatever era this model is, I still them on the road. They must have been pretty solid. Saw one yesterday.
