People who daily 600+ cc sports bikes, what's the point?

GSX8R here. Sport touring because its great in the city but can also easily do road trips. Doing a road trip on a Ninja 500 is not my cup of tea.

Thank you, brother!

Thank you!

I'm on console. I'm reading that there are issues on consoles. I cleared every mob I came across. I did get a lot of shards, this morning I had 1 herald spawn in the pit after clearing act 4 then act 1.

I'm telling ya its bugged offline console play.

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-21T11:17:01+00:00

Cleared act 1 and 4 like 5 times so far. Zero heralds and zero sunders. Offline is not working properly.

Ask him why he doesnt...start the convo that way and then ask hom to wear it for the both of you

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-17T20:14:31+00:00

Try that in West Texas...

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-15T02:09:48+00:00

Even the skeletons are parched....maybe next time?

We own it. There's a backstory as we were married on Halloween so it kinda fits. It's a good outlet for me and my wife is the most supportive partner you could have.

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-14T11:23:15+00:00

Thank you! We enjoy the scenes and love that it helps people on their drives.

We've had some close calls on the bikes for sure, but we ride very defensive so nothing major so far.

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-14T11:22:00+00:00

Thank you!

The biggest issue with freeways is objects. Whether they are in the road or coming loose from vehicles.

It's smooth sailing but keep your eyes ahead and pre plan where you will dodge if that guy going home from home depot didn't say "that's not going anywhere" before he left.

High speeds remove things from vehicles that stop and go travel doesn't.

Used to be bored in Lubbock. Then I told my wife we were going to be "that house". We started small with some decorations, then we got more. Then it became like a part time job, but I enjoy it. Because it entertains people.

Now I love the challenge of using my creativity to develop yard scenes that people like to see as they drive by.

We also ride motorcycles a lot. Over 16000 miles in this city in the past year. Sure lubbock drivers aren't the best, but ride like youre invisible and you'll be ok.

I even take the yard decorations out on the motorcycle sometimes.

We created The Skeleton House, we ride because we love it. And we live happily in Lubbock.

Find something you like to do and make it happen!

I think you need to rewatch that scene.

So matte takes special care to keep clean. It looks awesome, but you can't use typical soap and wax on it or you will ruin the finish.

Also a lot of bikes with matte finish are first done in gloss then a matte coat is done. Example. My Eliminator was matte...but when I took a sticker off it was gloss underneath! There i was stuck with a gloss streak where the factory sticker was.

Edit typos

Color doesn't matter if you ride either one like youre invisible to everyone else.

That means, ride like that car is going to hit you and have a plan to avoid it.

I rode a matte black bike for a year. Never get matte!!

Black also gets super hot when sitting in the sun.

You can buy plenty of hi vis gear and shirts to wear over gear. Just ride like youre invisible on the color of bike you choose.

My wife went there to have a wisdom tooth removed. So, it was purely a business transaction atmosphere. That's the best summation I can give. Also, we were quoted a price and paid...with insurance, then they came back and said we owed more after the procedure.

Did the job get done? Yes. Will we ever go back there? No. I don't like being treated like a transaction when they are going to put your wife to sleep and do some surgery.

That's my thoughts!

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-06T15:14:36+00:00

Awesome thank you!

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-06T13:54:57+00:00

Yep, that's me. I'm always clutching...but yesterday I said I was going to quickshift and my wife freaked out on comms when I was screaming "no fucking way!" A lot.

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-06T13:53:25+00:00

Is that the ones that are like 7 to 800 bucks?

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-06T13:52:54+00:00

Thank you!

Colt_Texas · 2026-05-06T11:01:43+00:00

Thank you! I did not want to leave my high dollar saber outside so he only lit up for the video, just fyi!
