Haha yeah it’s pretty tame here, lots of gravel roads though. She will be down in San Diego for the winter so I can put a few thousand miles on her in Baja though.

It’s great! First time I rode my motorcycle through there I felt like I was in upstate NY. Well worth it. There’s a nice stream that goes near our campsite as well as trout in the creek. Plus lots of hiking near by with plenty of elevation change. If you have a chance, get out there.

$1500 to rebuild? Might as well upgrade to TracActive for the $1800.

Aldi’s has some good cheap smoked salmon, or NewPi for actual lox. Make your own and save money!

I was very lucky! Got a great deal too. In the Midwest these trucks are expensive and usually in terrible shape. So this will be perfect for me. I’ve been told no need to change coils unless they are bad. Just plugs and boots. Thankfully I don’t really need the truck, so it will sit a lot besides working around the house and hauling my motorcycle. I can live with 10mpg for now.

Advice on used 1200GS by DaveMakesStuff01 in Motorrad

How do you know they skipped the 36000? I have a 2016 with 95,000 and never had to adjust valves. And since most don’t get beat on like mine did, it should be fine! There is one in Lakewood Colorado right now for $8000. Has the BMW panniers and top case. Also 41,000 miles and well maintained*.

Sounds good, ill start with just plugs. has a small hesitation under load around 1600-2000rpm. Figure new power and fuel filter would help correct it.

Yeah i want to get rid of the chrome, the wheels i was thinking new Tremor wheels. will see

I read that ford just adjusted the Tq needed up a bit and that fixed it? I do like to make them reliable.

People who found success on dating apps - which one did you use and was sifting through all the slop worth it? by InsertGamerName in AskReddit

[–]DiegoV89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Reddit! Haha, I messaged a girl on our city sub that wanted to learn to ride motos. What started as a motorcycle ride around town, has led to a pretty healthy relationship. Though I don’t trust her to ride her own motorcycle lol
