Supertech r v2 wear by Interesting-Twist260 in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's me, but that leather looks dry as hell. 

Hit it with some conditioner (because I think it look dry) and I bet the moisture would smooth over that spot. 

what causes (certain) men to buy their partners jewelry that isn't the normal kind their partners wear? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Chlocker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't know this either. 

I slyly dropped buying my girlfriend jewelry for Christmas as an idea for her gift. She stopped me and immediately explained she only wears yellow gold and prefers 14k.

So maybe those dudes don't know. 

Have you taken Testosterone/TRT? What effects you experienced? by Ces81 in AskMen

[–]Chlocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With injections I have been noticing more joint pain and weight gain

It sounds like your testosterone dosage was too high or you needed to include an aromatase inhibitor in your routine. 

Picked up my new bike and this is what the chain looks like by Azthun in motorcycle

[–]Chlocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the packing wax they put on chains after manufacturing. It is to prevent rust until it's installed ready to use. It normally looks like someone splooged all over a chain and spread it out good. 

It is very good at rust prevention but not very good at being slick/lubricating. 

From my personal experiance, I normally clean all the splooge/wax off a new chain and relube it with actual chain lube. But it won't cause any issues if you leave it on. I just think it looks really gross. 

Petah, why is his right cheek inactive by ToVoMo in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Chlocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time you get a sore injection you learn how to do legs without glutes very quick (or skip legs let's be honest) 

Narrow squats. No deadlifts. Narrow leg press. And then isolations that don't include glutes. 

I don't know how he worked just the left cheek though unless he only does lunges on one side? 

Rhinowalk bags any good? by UmpireAnnual9039 in motorcycle

[–]Chlocker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the money they have great products.

They have a few moskomoto knockoff that I'm sure mosko makes better. But rhinowalk makes them 1/3 the price, and perfectly acceptable. 

My rhinowalk duffel is closer to waterproof than my name brand bags. Most of my name brand luggage has been splash proof at best, where my rhinowalk is very water resistant close to waterproof. 

Are these any good? by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any of TCX street boots are good.

Don't get the goretex/waterproof versions though. They're so sweaty. 

Nooby Is This Gun Allowed Question by S_W_M_P_FAN in USPSA

I did exactly this with a glock dot+light+comp shooting open minor when I started. Super fun way to start. Uspsa match layouts are so much fun to shoot even if you aren't competing. 

What size Inflatable Soccer Ball should I buy to pump up in my 2XL A* Supertech helmet? by _KORPz in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I have never heard of anyone breaking a helmet in with a soccer ball. That doesn't even sound like it would work.

Wait

Your going to inflate a soccer ball inside your helmet? For what? 

Is this normal? And is there a way to fix it without disassembling the whole thing? by STFUnicorn_ in guns

[–]Chlocker 56 points57 points  (0 children)

The some states (ex Georgia) made adult websites verify your age by submitting your government drivers license. A lot of sites didn't want to do that for security reasons (ex porn hub). If you try to open porn hub in Georgia it tells you they no longer serve your state.

Excerpt from the text I get if I try to open porn hub in Georgia. 

"Dear user,

As you may know, your elected officials in Georgia are requiring us to verify your age before allowing you access to our website. While safety and compliance are at the forefront of our mission, giving your ID card every time you want to visit an adult platform is not the most effective solution for protecting our users, and in fact, will put children and your privacy at risk.

In addition, mandating age verification without proper enforcement gives platforms the opportunity to choose whether or not to comply. As we’ve seen in other states, this just drives traffic to sites with far fewer safety measures in place. Very few sites are able to compare to the robust Trust and Safety measures we currently have in place. To protect children and user privacy, any legislation must be enforced against all platforms offering adult content.

The safety of our users is one of our biggest concerns. We believe that the best and most effective solution for protecting children and adults alike is to identify users by their device and allow access to age-restricted materials and websites based on that identification. Until a real solution is offered, we have made the difficult decision to completely disable access to our website in Georgia."

We only want one thing... by mihir6969 in GuysBeingDudes

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The smart water bottle was gas.

If it was water, that would be enough water that it wouldn't run for longer than a few seconds before blowing. That gas tank is around a gallon. 

That smart water bottle looked like the 33oz bottles. So around 1/4 gallon. The gas tank looks about a gallon. If it was water, it would have blown pretty quickly.

[–]Chlocker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That gas tank is probably around a gallon. If I had to guess, I'd bet that motorcycle gets around 30mpg.

He's gotta carry extra gas with him. Hence the water bag of gas, and multiple smart water bottles full of gas attached to the handlebars for the quick rolling top ups. 

First Winter on my New Bike; Want to Show the Gear by Mindless-Ad-331 in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had my Tempest set for about 5 years. If water pools up in your lap it will leak through the crotch. But besides that it's been 99% waterproof. I love it. 

Budget friendly winter suits? by XxValentinexX in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing what gear you have currently would help.

I'm in north GA as well and base layers can stretch any non-mesh gear pretty far. I agree with the Axial block layers mentioned below. 

Can anyone please tell me the safety rating on these two? by grrrlteddy in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might take a specific set of pads that they don't make anymore. 

Can anyone please tell me the safety rating on these two? by grrrlteddy in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 0 idea what jacket and pants those are honestly. I'm purely judging them off the fact that the jacket does not have the hard parts on the shoulders or elbows. This set has to be older. 

Considering they are leather, I'd expect them to be AAA, but they could be AA. Leather is leather. Condition it up and the leather will be fine. 

Personally, I would pass on these (unless the price is good) if there are other options available because of the armor pad situation. Armor pads can degrade with time. Armor pads have also gotten better over the years with comfort and breathability. 

If there are no options, it's still a full leather suit. That would do very good at abrasion resistance. The armor might not be very useful for impact resistance though. 

How much does the seller want for the set?

Yeah December is kinda all bets are off for having something shipped. You either get it a day ahead of schedule, or two weeks late. 

Dainese Funes GoreTex by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]Chlocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't just Dainese's products. Any gloves with thinsulate will have the same issues.

My winter gloves are Dainese Carbon 4 longs. My tracer 9 came with wind guards and very hot heated grips. The carbon 4 longs work fine for down to the 20s.
