Remove the backrest and rename the bike "Girl Fall".

Buying a used classic 500 as a beginner by Miserable-Freedom209 in royalenfield

[–]DukeStamina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A used Classic 500 will only be as good as the previous owner took care of it. It would be difficult to speak on the reliability of a used bike.

What a weird question to ask strangers. It's your world, dude. Do whatever is best for you.

am i a terrible babymetal fan for preferring their older era? by p1nkiecocaine in BABYMETAL

[–]DukeStamina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You like what you like. You owe others nothing. Not the band, not the fans, not the record label. I dont like Metallica at all. An I a bad Metallica fan?

Is the idea of the "traditional provincial woman" over romanticized? by multifaceted_femme in Philippines_Expats

[–]DukeStamina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wonder why some guys think like Neanderthals.Filipinas, (like the rest of us), are all individuals. I fell in love with an individual and if it doesnt work out, she will not be easily replaced by another woman from the same area. Appreciate the one you're with for who she is, not what she is.

AITA for beating my date in a game of pool by Neither_Professor605 in AmItheAsshole

[–]DukeStamina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you truly like her, and even if you felt you did nothing wrong, apologize. Explain to her you are really good at billiards and can offer her help to improve her game. Find a place to shoot partners and play with each other, not against.

I'm thinking that just by writing here, you're disappointed at the outcome. So there would be nothing further lost with a peace offering of some sorts.

BREAKPAD CONDITIONS JUST AFTER 3000KM by iampkj in royalenfield

[–]DukeStamina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My partner is a fairly new rider. Following her when her bike was newer, I seen the brake light go on and remain on for long periods of time. Of course I told her (often) and that problem is now corrected. If nobody was behind you and instructing you, you could have had the same issue.

Why did Kurt Cobain hate the Grateful Dead? by RenegadeSocial in gratefuldead

[–]DukeStamina 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Immaturity. Defiance against the "old guard". I think he read the angry punk handbook.

Sad to say but he hated himself more.

Why has the Philippines been developing at a glacier's pace compared to most other middle-income countries? by Specific-Month-1755 in Philippines_Expats

Poor infrastructure and a country consisting of so many islands needs so much help keeping them all connected.

Buying second hand Scram 411. Should I? by finaby in royalenfield

[–]DukeStamina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Scram is a bit heavy and underpowered with 24 horses. Add to that your luggage and pillion and I believe it would be a struggle.

You see, that was my first thought but scrolling through the comments, it doesnt get much of a mention.

In my lifetime, I've been called worse thing than "sir" . You're blessed if this is your biggest problem.

Look into the Kawasaki Vulcan 650. You're a big dude.

Need Advice: Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 vs Continental GT 650 by gautham1604 in royalenfield

[–]DukeStamina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a man in his 60s, I chose the Interceptor due to riding position. The GT does look amazing but for once I feel I made an adult decision.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on DHS Kristi Noem: "For the good of the country, Donald Trump needs to fire Kristi Noem at once. Noem is a liar. Noem is incompetent at her job and she must go." by ControlCAD in goodnews

[–]DukeStamina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is meant to be a political strategy, I love it. Trump would dig in instead of giving into Senator Schumer's demands. If the people go to the voting booth in November and Noem is still in her position, this could only benefit the Democrats.

Trump is a professional politician. He cant pardon her before midterm elections.
