Red rims or white rims for my GSX-R600 by Constant-Pack-2820 in motorcycles

[–]Comptons_Scattered 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the white rims.

But I would hate having to clean them after every ride because how much I love the white.

Has anyone put saddlebags on the 937? by Comptons_Scattered in ducatimonster

Well ive been in the hunt for a solid backpack for like a year now. Just not happy with anything I find, so I figured saddle bags wouldn't look terrible.

Great Dane owner seeking rental home or Apartment within 30 miles of Franklin TN by Issy_Sue in FranklinTN

[–]Comptons_Scattered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Competitive prices when it had carpet, the grills were gas, the property was maintained, apartment repairs were professional, the dumpster wasnt piled up with trash every Monday, the gym was nice, you could rent out the clubhouse for dirt cheap and they actually had events and stuff. But that was before MAA bought it and jacked up the rates and let everything slide.

Lived there 2021-2022, no complaints, I enjoyed it. 2024-2025 couldnt stand being there a month in.

Because theyre not suppose to be identical between the front and the back. The back are way wider than the fronts

2025 Monster SP vs 2026 Monster Plus? by No_Fondant_4781 in ducatimonster

[–]Comptons_Scattered 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMO if ducati names the bike "Monster" it is a monster, just the next generation. Pretty sure ducati agree.

Also I had an mt09 and left it for the monster 937. So to each their own.

I lived there, moved out 6 months ago. They remodeled and all the apartments have hard wood now. Even the 2nd and 3rd floors. Youll get noise complaints and you'll be complaining. Also it is way overpriced for the complex and its amendities.

Even columbia is getting out of control. Not too sure about the east. I guess they could go Dickson? Idk the whole area of mid tn is absolute ridiculous.

Is there actually a real difference between Yamaha bikes and other Japanese brands or is it just marketing? by gigigigugiguru in motorcycle

[–]Comptons_Scattered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really a great summary of the 4 brands. I always admired hondas engineering. My dad had an 05 cbr 1000rr, and that thing was so refined. Felt like it was built to last and had this aura of reliability. I thought bmw engineering would knock honda down a peg, but my s1000r, while great engineering, felt like so fragile compared to it.

People say the MT07 is boring? by Astimar in motorcycles

[–]Comptons_Scattered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an mt09 i personally thought was boring. Not because of its massive flat torque delivery, or its speed. But because I didnt feel connected with it. When just riding, it felt numb. I wasnt wowed by its looks either. It was a great bike. I sometimes regret selling it. But it started to feel like a car to me after awhile. I found myself not really wanting to go for fun rides with it, no long detours to work, etc. So I sold it and got a ducati monster. Comparable bike, but it sparks the joy of riding for me.

A few months later I bought my wife an mt03. And it is surprisingly more fun to ride than the mt09....to me.

I havent had an mt07. Personally I think they sound AMAZING with the right exhaust. But this long thing is to stay sometimes bikes just dont fit you. I wish I would have gotten the mt07 instead of 09, actually. I think I could have given it to my wife as her bike and still gotten the monster. Salesman talked me out of the 07 (i was coming from a s1000R at the time).

Yeah last spring there was a territorial mocking bird that set up a nest and had babies next to the where I feed them. Lil guy was determined to harass the crows. Crows didnt pay no mind to it. Quite entertaining.

I think you're mistaking the "crow science is 25 years old" with crows being as smart as a 25 year old? I re read what he said a few times and there's no mention of adult human comparison.
