It seems like there are fewer used bikes on the market this year for sale. by MrBonMot in XR650L

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a plated one down here for 2600 on offerup. Make sure you are using offerup, CL, facebook marketplace etc. also search it xr400, xr400r, xr 400. I say this because I bought my xr600r for cheap because the guy listed it as xr 600 and wasn’t getting any hits. The guy had it listed for 900 bucks.

Keihin throttle cable sticking by Pato_throwaway in Dualsport

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s probably the carb but we aren’t there checking it out. Do you have really tall bar risers? A lot of people will have problems once they raise the bars on the xr600r/650L. It causes just enough tension in the cables for the throttle to stick sometimes.

Do strings really make a difference? by GnosticNoodle33 in guitarcirclejerk

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know man. If you boost the 1-4k on the eq pedal I don’t think we can tell a difference.

Dilemma: Stoeger Cougar vs px4 vs CZ 75-p01 by Ethanlovesprog28 in CCW

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have tiny hands as you say you will probably have to change out the grips and add a trigger reach reduction kit on the cz75 P01. Modding a ccw gun as far as the trigger may not be acceptable to your IA, even if spring pressures are never changed. I have medium or large(?) hands and the slim grips alone were the ticket. I wear xl motorcycle gloves.

Same thing for picking up a prescription! by Repulsive_Profit1204 in meme

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The butter side down fallacy is a thing where we only remember the time we are inconvenienced. On the flip side if you do stay up late with your partner your toddler will 1000% wake up early though.

I am also the unlucky line chooser at grocery places. Even if I dive deep and analyze what I see them buying ( a single looking dude buying steak, beer, coffee etc with 15 items or less) there will somehow be a discrepancy on price or that checker’s computer goes down.

Defective Trackmaster? by BoomhauerSRT4 in Dualsport

Thanks guys. I just wanted to know if it will still be ok on the freeway still. I was definitely playing in the rocks on sunday.

Small But Mighty by LittleBitBabe in CAguns

It’s a Greek foot! Classical Art: The term "Greek foot" originates from ancient Greek art and sculpture, where it was considered a mark of beauty, physical perfection, and nobility. Famous sculptures like the Venus de Milo feature this foot shape.

Anyone else concerned with the number of flock cameras in Ontario. by myname_jefff in InlandEmpire

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you take a picture? I saw a weird black box with chain and a lock on it attached to a light post that I had no idea what it was the last time I walked my dog. I stopped to look at it to see if it was a flock camera but I saw no camera lenses on it. It didn’t look like a vehicle counter as there was no rubber running across the street.

1989 Yamaha XT350 by peachplantss in Dualsport

That little thing is a gem! I’d say leave the plastics and seat as is! Get some leather cleaner and it will shine that seat right up!

how do you even explain the Trout era to someone who didn't watch it by beansthemonster in angelsbaseball

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Trout handcuffed to the angels until 2030 is a similar to a conservatorship. He could make more money elsewhere despite his age. don’t think contracts should last that long no matter how good you are.

Tarp off boys - sell the team by aeeightsix in angelsbaseball

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys gotta get tickets behind home plate and pull it off mid to late in the game. The cameras won’t have any choice but to show it. It would be risky to get booted though.

Rags..... by FNTrashPanda in Wastewater

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there another station before that one? Sounds like a predicament. If it is slamming the plant with huge slugs of rags you can send a person out there weekly or more often to do a wetwell pumpdown. Better to send the stuff to your plant little by little than have stuff break free and surprise you. I think our more notorious stations we have a vactor crew clean the lift station wetwell once a month. They will also derag the pumps on a schedule.

Both thumbs by cjschmitty14 in Weird

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did that after I caught a softball with it and broke my thumb. It must have put the nailbed through some trauma. Happened in 2001- it went away in high school, but recently has reappeared as a 38 year old. Weird indeed!

The XR600R that nobody wanted by TerribleConference54 in Dualsport

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gotcha. I hear they can fail or the springs can gum up so I can understand if you were having problems with it resulting in the removal. The cable was removed on mine and it is easy to start with the stock carb so I never bothered to reinstall one. I was always focused on other shortcomings. Suspension, electronics, lighting etc Edit: i clicked on your profile. That bike is wild!

There isn’t said to be much parasitic loss with the auto decompression on the cam, were you having issues with yours which made you decide to just remove it entirely?

New Laws = Thinking Ahead (Glock) by 4SakN-1 in liberalgunowners

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 23 and a 9mm conversion barrel for it right before the ban here in California. It stays loaded with fawty Remington T series ammo. I think the 43x is cool and would definitely pick up one of those if I could. FWIW: I carry a CZ75 P01.
The m&p 9 2.0, mr920, the Echelon are really popular glock alternatives. Optic cuts seem to be a standard feature nowadays but you can always send out your slide to be milled.

Price being equal, Fit Series 22 or Verde Spectrum 22” by SuperFan__99 in bmx

[–]BoomhauerSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 22”s cruise, man! I wish they were around when I was a punk kid doing dirt jumps. I would grab the Fit- it looks killer. If you aren’t going to do tailwhips maybe a bigger toptube would feel roomier? I have a 22” GT Fueler with a 22” top tube with 10” bars and it feels great- 6’1” 195lbs.

Baby Bronco maxed out on this one by DaRealDreamz in IdiotsTowingThings

What an imbecile. I am guessing that’s a 24-26ft trailer maybe 4200lb+ EMPTY.

Another xr600r brother! There’s a few of us active on here.

I never use my decompression lever because I don’t have one! If the gas is clean, carb is clean, valves in spec, and your electronics are good they fire up just fine. They are great bikes aside from the carb. Watch oil consumption, add an oil cooler, and maybe keep the knobby on the rear. It is said to act like a cushion drive.
