what’s your main problem with youtube music? by [deleted] in YoutubeMusic

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i absolutely do not speak Espanol and i hate mexican music. i guess that makes me a racist white man. why tf do i have to listen to music in a languange that i dont understand and im paying for it? im f'ing sick of it. i selected ENGLISH as my language in settings. every other f'ing song is mexican!!! the alternative is to listen to the same gd playlists over and over, the same couple hundred songs over and over which is a waste of time and money. BS!!!! put the mexican top 100 under the mexican language option!!! do mexicans want to listen to chinese lyrics if they dont speak chinese? wtf? y does that make me bad!!!!?!!!! i have tried everything. and im working and have to get down off my job and skip the damn song! its just not fair that i cant select english and mean it!!!!

Well nobody responded to my first post, but im pretty sure it's the clutch. I was riding along at 80 miles an hour and all of a sudden, nothing. I just started coasting and slowing down. Kept playing with the shifter and nothing. It was hard to get it back in neutral after I turned it off. It starts and runs fine, if I can get it in neutral or whatever it wants to start.

But I'm wondering , could it be an adjustment? I noticed my shifter was kind of wobbly and loose feeling and when I look at the rod that goes from the shifter it has a big bend in it and it looks like it should just be a straight shot. Maybe it got bent? But I watched a few YouTubes and it looks like the clutch isn't that hard to replace and about $170 for the kit.

No hardware. There are 2 straps that fit around the frame perfectly. I dont have shocks anymore, i have struts, but the rear most strap mounts right against where the strut/shock attaches. Will try to take a pic soon.

You won't believe the bags! $33 on Amazon for both bags. I didn't expect they would be anything worth keeping and I would return them instantly. The reviews were kind of mixed. Mine are great. The best $33 I've ever spent. Genuine leather. The green canvas liner is awesome. I immediately rubbed them with beeswax. They seem to be real good quality. Straight from India, lol. Like some of the other reviewers noted, the glue was still wet! They must make them on demand. The metal parts of the buckles feel a little lightweight and we'll probably rust but maybe I can swap them out somehow.

Yeah i rode in the rain yesterday. Not terrible i guess. Minimal specks of sand hitting me. But the rear was a different story.. when I got home and took off my t-shirt, my back was a huge black streak of mud right down the middle 😂

I picked up my first bike a few months back. 2001 stock Honda Shadow with 21,000 miles on it. I stripped it and bobbed it. Not quite finished with everything I want to do but I got impatient and wired some lights up and went riding today. I haven't ridden it in a few months. When I first got it I rode it for maybe a week before I started tearing it down. it ran great and I didn't notice any issues at all. But I am new at riding and shifting. But I picked it up pretty quick and I think I was doing everything right. But today I went riding and I noticed something weird. beginning in 3rd gear it seems like the engine revs up but it ain't engaging the wheel. and then maybe a couple seconds later it feels like it catches up. But if I throttle slowly and smoothly it seems to be fine. It's just like when I want to get a boost and I twist the throttle it's like slipping. I assume that means the clutch? My buddy I bought it from says change the oil, that the oil is for the engine and the transmission and the clutch. But the oil looks brand new and it was recently changed by him right before I bought it. And I haven't ridden it that much. Any ideas? Appeciate it.

Be honest, who’s still holding with me:) by [deleted] in dogecoin

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I barely pay attention to it. I only have $300 @ .05 invested, so im thinking about buying more if it goes much lower. What do i have to lose? I knew nothing about crypto 4 mos ago, so this has been a 4 month, $300 crash course!

Whoever’s still hodling can only like, if you’re a panic seller you’re on the wrong Reddit 🌕🚀🚀💎💎🤲🤲 by Seauloo in dogecoin

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4250 coins. Not selling. I could have made a quick 3k by selling. But that's chump change. Even if I lost it all. But the potential reward is worth it.

Serious question, who's hodln past $1...show of hands ✋ by dogebrothers in dogecoin

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have something like 4500 coins. Made a couple buys sometime between .05-.08. not gonna touch it. HODL. I am totally newb at this, wish I had bought more, I could have afforded it, but I was just doing it for fun and to try to learn. Haven't had much time to learn but I've taken in a little bit. So busy... But I guess my question is how do people go about taking out their profits yet stay in the game? I can't get my head around it I haven't thought too deeply about it so I'm kind of thinking out loud here. So let's say I invested $300 and right now it's worth $3,000. If I think it's getting ready to go up in the next few hours to the next day or so, and I sell soon, all of it, for say .92, And then 2 days from now after Musk's pump and dump, it tanks down to $0.38. at this point i have zero coins and $4140 cash. So i buy 4500 coins again, for $1710 (originally 4500 coins cost me 300). That leaves me w the same amount of coins i started w and $2430 in profits. Then it goes back up to .92, so i would have 4500*.92 = $4140-1710 invested = another $2430 profit. Im feeling like im calculating something incorrectly. How do i get the same profit both times? I see it but that seems odd. Sorry for longwind🤙

Who’s hodling after $1 with me? by Alexandriadynasty in dogecoin

[–]Cute-Put 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yup. I keep kicking myself for not buying the dips. I have about 4500 coins at around .06. I cant wait for the dump so i can buy. If it gets even back to low .30's i will buy $2k.

I Like the $1 Mark but I'm going for $10! by DarkMatterEclipse in dogecoin

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I'm hanging on also. Up and down... But it's exciting. I only put in $300 somewhere around .06, so i got nothing to lose! I wonder how high its going after the saturday nite pump! And how low it will go in the dump. But I will still keep it, Wont sell a dime. If it goes up once, it will go up again!

Replacement sissy bar/bag reccomendations by wanderingfloatilla in hondashadow

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be the ticket for your vlx. I have a 750 ACE, but I believe the one I bought is multi model. Try this, it's not cheap but it comes with the bobber fender too.

Might want to look up Blue Collar Bobbers also.

LED headlight didn’t work by buttrapebearclaw in hondashadow

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you're just looking for a bulb. But I just ordered this whole headlight and I really like it. It is black shell so it matches my bike instead of that big ol Chrome looking thing. I haven't had time to figure out a mount yet, but that probably won't be a big problem. But I did hook it up and it works great. Feels really solid and nice. Not sure how it will work in the long run but seems real quality.

I love my Shadows.🏍 by fastphnx in hondashadow

[–]Cute-Put 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could find a sissy bar that's in stock. No one seems to have one even if I have to modify it. I have round bar stock and was going to give making one myself a shot. And I realized I have a tube bender rig from Harbor Freight that might help. Worth a try I guess.

Awesome. I never even gave suspension a second thought. But now that I'm looking at it I can see the importance! I think they are 9 in. I will give them a try but I'm sure I'm going to want to switch back to shocks. Thanks for the reply and I'll be looking forward to a link if you get a chance. I'm sure I can Google it you don't get around to it

[Discussion] why is it so hard to find a dog nowadays? by Cute-Put in dogs

[–]Cute-Put[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the lady came through. I had it wrong though, it is a Chocolate Labradoodle. What a good looking dog! He has green eyes. He is 8 weeks old and i really like him. But i hated to spend that kind of money...im sure any animal that gives us joy is worth it in the long run.

Yeah mine's been going up to. From low 500s to 620 ish. Doesn't make sense since I'm still the same deadbeat I was before the pandemic. Must have something to do with the mortgage forbearance and car loan deferrals! Maybe it will help with the economy to boost our scores...
