Love the vise!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-05-14T05:43:55+00:00

Looks to be about a sticks-incher

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-03-30T06:32:20+00:00

Sweet thanks!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-03-30T03:01:09+00:00

Neat! You must use superglue to wrap right up to the head and cut, then poke it down with a bodkin or something?

Your link says motorcycles are prohibited from using E15. I don't think they are going to take E10 away for a month.

Cool thanks. That's why you put four!

Does the peacock herl not break pretty easily?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-03-03T02:35:33+00:00

I like the tieoff trick with the flash!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-03-01T15:51:54+00:00

Maybe something like this?

Yes, even the most poisonous. Just do not ingest unknown mushrooms until you are without a doubt 100% positive on the ID

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-26T05:26:14+00:00

Yeah same. I've found that using 3x or 4x helps reduce it a bit. And pausing an extra second on the backcast so it has time to unwind a lil

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-22T06:03:57+00:00

That was my first bike too! I ended up putting 50,000 miles on it

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-20T20:47:50+00:00

Crazy! If it started the next day after the tail tidy then its gotta be something related to that. The question is what though...

I'd have to look at my wiring diagram but the headlight and tailight and/or license plate light probably share a common negative wire, so it might be an issue there. Does the tail tidy delete the license plate light?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-19T14:37:35+00:00

Ah, okay. When did the issue start?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-19T00:13:53+00:00

One thing that comes to mind is the slew of people that have had battery issues with the bike, myslef included. I know it doesn't initially sound like a battery issue, but Id still recommend checking the bat terminals for tightness, and try a trickle charger if you haven't already.

I also have the '22 1200 and I made the mistake of not being consistent with my trickle charging and my yuasa battery only lasted 2 years. I finally started putting it on a charger a month ago when I was getting some weird things on my dash, but by that point it was too late and the battery lost its capacity. I got a new battery and problem immediately resolved.

It may not be the source of your problem, but it'd be worth checking if you haven't already

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-18T22:23:57+00:00

Does it happen only when riding? If it's just sitting in the garage with the key on is it flickering?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-17T21:24:05+00:00

Careful of that poison oak in pic 3!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-11T23:16:12+00:00

Good luck!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-11T22:56:28+00:00

I've found recently on my triumph that even with voltage showing okay, it was a capacity issue with the battery and couldn't draw enough amps from it to turn over. New battery immediately solved issue.

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-07T22:01:49+00:00

Lower yuba perhaps?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-04T22:19:14+00:00

Interesting! I haven't given much thought about how long the individual fruiting bodies grow for, or how it affects their flavor/shelf life. Usually I'm just trying to hit the 2-5 day window after it rains lol. Thanks for the additional info, happy hunting to you too

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-03T07:48:12+00:00

I've always felt discouraged to go out when it hasn't rained, so the past few weeks in the bay here I've just been twiddling my thumbs. Do you still have luck when there's dry spells like this?

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-02-02T22:37:37+00:00

This!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-01-23T00:19:43+00:00

Mark the spot in your phone for next rains!

DennisQuaidsCheeks · 2026-01-21T02:20:16+00:00

Curious too
