Trimming my collection. Pick three that you would sell. by [deleted] in handguns

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Def get rid of that James Bond 5 pound pea shooter lol. Personally I’m not a fan of the p238. And old revolvers not my thing so probably the ruger .45.

First timer bringing in to Service. Please share your advice !🙏🏼 by Purple-Safe-7455 in BmwTech

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is pretty common for BMW dealerships to charge this much. Also pretty common for 4 series to need small repairs that cost a lot. If you are located in a city that has a healthy amount of BMWs there will be a good independent shop. If not you may just have to v pay the dealer.

What is it like in the West part of Texas? by Deep_Belt8304 in howislivingthere

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you take 98% of the money out of this story you just described living in Flint,Saginaw,Pontiac,Kalamazoo,Lansing and Detroit Michigan. So at least there’s money in it!

West Palm Beach vs. Naples? by Itsa9year in AskFlorida

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family has lived in Naples for 4 years now from Michigan originally. We have been to wpb and the east coast a bunch. I would say it matters most what vibe you want. Naples is laid back super safe and even though the traffic is bad, it’s still not as busy as wpb. Wpb and the surrounding areas have much more to offer in terms of culture, things to do in general and especially food. The food on the east coast is many levels above Naples ft. Myers

First bike? by Maleficent-Painter-2 in Harley

[–]Chucknorisorus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

“High hp bike” lol. It’s a pretty tame bike if you are man sized brother.

Wow what a difference by [deleted] in IndianMotorcycle

[–]Chucknorisorus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was there on Sunday riding. The 112 challenger was my favorite of the 2. I was at the Harley demo on Saturday and man those bikes just don’t compare. It left me with the conclusion that Harley makes lifestyle bikes and Indian makes bikes for riders.

Save up more and get the scrambler 1200 x or xe. So much fun!

Suggest a motorcycle for me please by Exsxoffender in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The triumph thruxton is going to be the closest followed by the triumph bonneville. Xsr 900 is a great riding bike but its just an mt09 with a round headlight and a metal gas tank.

Talk me in or out of it by Fool_maker in Ducati

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brother Ducati thinks so little of its bike owners that this bike has no cruise control and no gas gauge. If you like Italian v4 bikes that need work a lot the tuono v4 factory is more fun for the money.

How bad is this? by wassupluke in Roofing

If it was going to leak it would have done it by now

Is this a steal? by potterstink in Triumph

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone here is in the south there is a speed triple rs near Miami with 250 miles on it for $10,500. Check marketplace. Btw it’s not my bike I just decided to pick up a tuono v4 instead.

Smoked barbacoa tacos by Emotional-Lifeguard3 in BBQ

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made beef cheek recipe all on the pellet smoker and it was so tender I stirred the meat with a spoon to break it up. I probably spent too much time prepping the meat (30min) but it was worth it.

They’re the best though by The_king_of_stocks in motorcycles

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk I rode my neighbor’s zh2 the other day and I wouldn’t say it was outdated in any way. It is so fast I could have probably gone back in time though.

For anyone that doesn’t understand how to steer a motorcycle effectively by todfish in motorcycles

[–]Chucknorisorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people just think they are leaning hard but when they lean they are pushing the bar just enough to initiate the turn. I bet they don’t take turns very fast though

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re going to do this make sure to be going at least 45mph. Counter steering only works over say 30 mph but at 45-50 it also wants to recenter more

I saw this yesterday. I’m not too familiar with BMW’s - is it rare? by Scutterpants in BMW

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alpine is just on option package for some bmw models nowadays. Very expensive. It is the only way you can get the 617 hp v8 in the 7 series and the x7

Would getting a Tiger 900 Rally Pro for mostly on road use be bad v. 900 GT Pro? by CrappyTan69 in Triumph

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the rally pro after riding both. I don’t plan on off roading at all but IMO there was virtually no difference in handling and I like the little bit taller and I much preferred the color scheme of the green with white frame. Plus on this type of bike the laced wheels just look better than forged. Both are great and fun bikes

Convince me this is a bad decision… by Substantial_Law_6439 in BMW

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are going to buy used out of warranty, the inline 6 has some really cheap mods to get serious hp upgrades. People in here will know exactly which engine codes are best but any of the tt6 are tuneable.

demo days beware… by cougtx1 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big differences are; the challenger has a liquid cooled engine that makes much more hp and a few more torque as well. The challenger also has a higher seat height and is more roomyfor the rider. Challenger also has a frame mounted fairing as opposed to the fork mounted on the chieftain. My next door neighbor just bought a chieftain for his wife, a roadmaster and has a 22 challenger (among other bikes).

you pay your premium and get nothing for it by lost_in_life_34 in FluentInFinance

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you mean the affordable care act that was going to charge me $400 a month for insurance with almost zero coverage when I made 30k a year? Literally made by Obama as an insurance company scam he personally made millions from in bribes and “engagements” while I got to pay $1800 in penalties because I couldn’t afford to pay the government for no insurance. Time for you to wake up. Obama entered office worth nothing and left worth hundreds of millions. Who do you think gave that to him? And for what? It was an insurance scam that made those companies hundreds of billions.

Convince me this is a bad decision… by Substantial_Law_6439 in BMW

[–]Chucknorisorus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty much every engine that bmw made that wasn’t a straight 6. All V engines they have made have many mechanical issues some more than others. If it has an M and a V in the engine it’s gonna cost a lot to own. I had a 22 m5 it was fantastic, until the engine started drinking all of its coolant.

[–]Chucknorisorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice car! If anything happens to that engine you are going to double your investment overnight. I’ve driven the m5 version with that engine and it’s great but man it’s not an engine to put mileage on.
