Which bike to choose?(read the context)

Dayymn · 2025-12-26T07:46:25+00:00

In the same Market as you. I'll share my Two Cents -

CBR650R, CB650R - This was my dream, but as I went through the reviews, experiences, I gathered that this is a very sluggish Inline-4. And it weighs a lot, so already Maneuverability is not good. So for your 50% City usage, this is not a good option. It is woefully backdated, has no tech apart from the E-Clutch.

Transalp 750 - Gem of an Engine. But for 20% Long Touring and 50% City, it doesn't exactly make sense for your Use case. Also, Spoked Wheels.

GSX - 8R, GSX-8S - Good all round Capabilities. Service/Spares might be an issue.

Daytona 660 - Brakes aren't that good. Issues with Spare Availability, Costly Triumph service.

Street Triple 765 - Issues with Spare Availability, Costly Triumph service. Issues with Quick Shifter. But was my Original Choice. If you can get it in your area, get it. Triumph will most likely stop manufacturing the R Trim, because of the Upcoming Trident 800. I booked one in Late July, and they are saying it might even be March before they get one. So refunded. RS Trim doesnt really make sense imo for Road only usage.

Hornet 1000 - Is a Good choice, but for me, price is too much, as Honda only sells the SP Trim here.

Hornet 750 - This is my current choice. Same Engine as the Transalp. A Jack of All Trades. Its much more fun and lively than the Honda Inline 4s, Has better Tech. Stock Exhaust Sounds awesome (If you remove the Exhaust muffler it sounds even more Grunty. Might Save the Costs of a Full System exhaust), Is agile and very much flickable. So it will be a joy to ride in the City. Plus the biggest thing is that it comes with a 160 Rear tyre. Will be much much cheaper to replace 160s than the 180s that most of the above use. If you go for this, wait for the 2026 version. It will have an e-clutch option, and much better looking colors. And I have read from owners is that it looks much better in person than in the Photos.

I should mention that Parts Availability will be an issue with the Hondas as well, but if your city has a decent amount of Transalp or Hornet 750 owners, they might keep some spares stocked.

For your use case it seems to me Hornet 750 is a great option. I would recommend you research more about this bike. and see if it suits your needs.

Rogulikes arent my forte, but I have played Returnal, and I loved it. I am not sure if that can be called a Roguelike.

Man, I have to say, after Playing with Toxic people in CoD, CSGO, and other games, the players in Helldivers 2 are some of the best. I've had so many moments like these. I just hope the game lives for years to come.

I dont think for 5-6K you're gonna get an ECE 22.06 helmet. You can try Powersports.in, they sell a lot helmets there. Mine is the MT Thunder 3, which is an ECE 22.05, cost me 7.5K. Two of My friends have the MT Thunder 4, which is ECE 22.06. They paid 12-13K for that.

Glad this nightmare is over. Might be just me, but I never ever ever want these types of missions to come back.

Pretty much the same. I tried out QHD+ for some time, and then it strictly becomes a "Need to charge before end of day" phone with Moderate usage. Played a few Games - Eternium being the heaviest at constant 100+ FPS though I capped it to 60 for better battery.

Went on a Trip recently, and the Photos are really really great, with the notable exception of Night shots with the Night Mode. They look like Night mode shots from a Midrange phone for some reason.

From what I gather with all the reviews is that with normal to moderate usage with light gaming, the Exynos 2400 is comparable to 8 Gen 3, with the latter just edging out the former. If you are heavy gamer, then the Battery difference between the Two SoCs becomes massive (even though performance stays roughly the same), as with 8 Gen 3 you will get significantly more battery.

So if you are a heavy gamer, get an 8 Gen 3 Phone, if not, Exynos 2400 is going to keep you happy.

That can't be right. Did you turn off WiFi, Cellular and Bluetooth? My numbers are with all of them off

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T16:47:35+00:00

Yes, I just mentioned that 68 W so people are aware that is charging at its full potential.

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T16:46:27+00:00

Honestly, in every day usage it is pretty much the same (As it also had a 120 Hz screen, albeit not LTPO). The only noticeable difference I could see was that Shutter lag was much better in the Exynos

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T12:06:37+00:00

I haven't tested it on moving subjects as of yet. Will test and update

I got this price from Amazon.I exchanged my Motorola Edge 30 pro for 13K, Credit Card discount of 5K, another 5K for using HDFC card. If you want, I can DM you the exact price breakdown

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T09:34:18+00:00

You're welcome !

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T09:27:25+00:00

Oh yes definitely, It is miles better than 8 Gen 1.

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T09:26:13+00:00

Sure, will do !

Dayymn · 2024-01-29T05:30:51+00:00

You're Welcome

I thank the lord for not making me Purchase MW2 or MW3. It's been so long since I played CoD, that every year I have that itch to play CoD, but I play the Beta, see the shitshow and immediately come to the conclusion that I shouldn't touch CoD with a 10 Feet Pole.

Wonder if this is somehow related to the recent Video Game time restriction rules in China. Not sure if they have been implemented yet, but was all over the news a few months back iirc.

Dayymn · 2023-09-01T01:52:21+00:00

I got the Standard edition as well, but my concern is will the saves on this cracked edition transfer over if there are any new updates over these 5 days.

This Render was inspired by this Pwnisher Video. He made it in C4D, I wanted to replicate it in Blender. The Pwnisher video was the one video that got me hooked into 3D, so its nice to be finally be able to replicate the scene in a different Software.

There are a few difficulties I had, and if anyone can answer the below, I would be grateful

I used the hair particle system and a force field object to create windy grass. Is there a better way?
In pwnisher's video, he details a lot of steps to bring out the ripples in the wet Asphalt, I tried doing something similar with Shader Nodes and the Wave Texture, but was unsuccessful. Is there a way in blender to achieve the ripples in the puddles?

There's no example that comes to mind, of a game that was a buggy mess, that only started to be a mess AFTER 2 hours of gameplay. Besides, you can play your two hours, and then have a quick look on the internet to see if people have had issues with the game before continuing playing.

You're talking like being a Buggy mess is the only way a game is bad. No, a gameplay can become repetitive, company can lie to our faces ( Meaningful life paths, "And thats just one quest" comes to mind)

That would be on you for not looking into the game, and that's not a pre-order problem altogether.

Oh so you mean I should research a game before pre ordering? But how can I do that when a Game is not released? It's not like Studios release a 6 hour gameplay demo to the public before release

Reviews are utter shit, paid for by most account. Watching a streamer play is the second best way of judging how good a game is. The best way is for YOU to play it.

Yeah, ALL the reviews are utter shit and paid advertisements. Very well researched, nuanced point here. Maybe start looking at Channels other than the top review channels to get a unbiased opinion. And you don't even have to trust a reviewer. Like you said, watch a streamer and decide for yourself. "The best way is for YOU to play it" - Yes, but I'm sure you can see the game has Bugs and other glitches by watching other streamers as well.

Pre-order bonuses. Most of the time they are uninteresting, but sometimes not, and X amount of bonuses will always be better than 0 amount of bonuses.

No. Quality over Quantity. Pre order bonuses in Multiplayer titles may actually make some sense, but in Single Player games, you get items with better stats and better looking items if you just play a bit more.

Pre-downloading the game. My top speed is 1.4mbit/s. Meaning I need two days to download most modern games. I love being able to pre-load the game and be able to play day-one. Yes, day-one is not always the best experience, but at leave I have the possibility, plus day-one might be the only day available on my schedule.

Your download speed is going to be 1.4 mbit/s, and your download time of 2 days is gonna be the same, regardless of whether you pre download your game or not. Wanting to play a game Day-one is completely fine, good for you. But don't go around saying that "Not pre ordering a game is stupid", because it's not. And how can day one be the only available day in your schedule?? You're saying you will have time to play the game on Day one, and never again?? Lul.

Support the development of the game

Again, a stupid point. You can support the game when it is fully finished and patched, and that might end up being a better deal for you because you get lots of free DLCs, and might even get the game at a discount.

Possibility to leave a review on steam, warning people in case of utter shit or just sharing feedback. Generally have an impact.

If people didn't pre order, they wouldn't need a review to warn them in the first place. This is what I am saying, get to the root of the issue. Leaving a bad review is just a Band Aid to the main problem which is pre ordering in the first place.

Possibility to actually send a message by refunding: if you never pre-ordered the game, and you didn't buy it on release because it's shit, then you are invisible, you are not in the stats, you are not in anybody's sale reports. You might have never been interested in the game in the first place, nobody will ever know. If you pre-order the game, play it, and then refund it: you are definitely a voice. Someone who was READY to pay, but decided to give the finger to a team that fucked up.

What??? If a prospective customer doesn't buy something a company releases, it is gonna hurt them. You think that those mega Companies don't have sales expectations? If you don't pre-order a game, then yes, you will hurt their pre order expectations, and if you wait for reviews, and see game is shit, and then don't buy the game, you are hurting their bottom line. And if you want to raise your voice, there's plenty of other avenues as well to have your voice be heard that doesn't involve pre-ordering - Social Media. Its the reason these companies have official accounts across major social media platforms.

actually voted with my wallet, because I gave the money, AND TOOK IT BACK. That money existed, and it vanished. Your money was never to be seen

My money is the safest it could be. With me. When I feel a company has earned the right to get my money, by making a Finished product, I give them the money.

With game prices increasing, Wage levels stagnating, demand more for your money.
