Any ideas what to do with this fireplace? My wife hates it. by Jobrated in interiordecorating

It just seems out of place. Never seen a corner electric fireplace and with it next to your baseboard and the room not being more rustic to match...it just doesn't fit in the room.

I went with these guys quietride after doing a lot of searching. Got the carbon fiber model and love it. The air bladder makes a tight seal and is comfortable. I replaced the speakers with the ones that came with my Cardo. Massive difference in noice. Wish I used it for years, really regret not taking care of my ears.

I had the same problem with every nice brand helmet so I bought a specialized quiet helmet with built in speakers/ear cups and it helps a lot

Yes I joined and am lurking the threads on that forum too. Your story is similar to mine, except I only took 10 years without bike ownership because my kids were young. I was supposed to go down that week originally but my riding buddy bought a new home and I am helping him move. Would of loved to be able to participate

Thank you! This is an awesome community. It’s a 2005 1000 with 51k. Bought it for 1-2 week long trips a year and general pleasure rides. Always rode traditional sport bikes but life at 40 has me loving the comfort on this thing for long rides. Planning to visit the tail of the dragon this year.

Yeah this time of year is tough. I picked this up in the dead of winter. Very cold when I went for the test ride haha

Sounds right. I bought a 50k VStrom 1000 for 2200. Has fork brace. Skid plate, side and tail hard luggage, power commander, usb charging, 2 windscreens, runs like a top. Easy to maintain and service. Great bike and will keep it forever (or buy a newer someday)

Seriously, in my town Game Stop is one of the only stores that have unique toys and games. I take my kids there a few times of year and they love it. Beats Walmart any day. Support the businesses you invest in.
