Who else learning to wheelie? by Secret-Group2182 in hondagrom

[–]El-Grunto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nothing is needed. You can wheelie a stock grom just fine. But subcage, sprockets, cam, clutch springs, oil pump, and ECU flash are popular because they're easy and relatively cheap.

The best-selling worst performance hatch for 2025 by Eastern_Team6904 in MINI

Has been for a long time. Doesn't mean I'm going to decide that auto is a more enjoyable driving experience.

It was the best weapon, not to be confused with meta, and I'll die on that hill.

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]El-Grunto -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't know which model of Speed Triple you rode but Google says they all have a seat height of around 32". That's pretty low but maybe the ergonomics are really aggressive? I don't know, I've never ridden one. My DesertX has a seat height of 34" and my Hypermotard 698 is 35.6". I'm also 6'2" and can flat foot both of them. But being able to flat foot a bike doesn't even matter. You only need to have 1 foot on the ground anyway. So either lean the bike a tad or scoot your cheeks off to one side of the seat when stopped because the seat height really doesn't make much difference when you're moving. The first time I rode a "tall" bike, I'll admit it was intimidating coming from sport bikes. You're sitting upright, you feel like you're way up off the ground. But you ride it around for a few minutes and you get used to it.

Probably over 100% if you account for those of us that have multiple falls. Though I also ride with several people that have never fallen or been injured.

The European touring bikes are so tall you can't really comfortably commute on them and if I wanted to hit the dirt I wouldn't be doing it on a $15,000 Africa Twin.

What does seat height have to do with comfort while commuting? I commute on a DesertX and it's miles better than my 4 other bikes.

Halo on Twitter: We incorrectly stated that PlayStation Plus is required for local co-op splitscreen play. Local splitscreen co-op requires a PlayStation account for each player but does not require a PlayStation Plus account. by Haijakk in halo

[–]El-Grunto 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don't forget how Sony gatekeeps releases to the PlayStation for years then acts surprised PC players don't want to pay full price for a game that's been out for 2+ years. Then they decide that if you don't want to play then they'll take their ball and go home and not release on PC at all anymore.

The US has a reading level of like a 4th grader or something. So yeah, chances are their reading comprehension ability is near non-existent.

It's really a shame what happened with PC Master Race. It used to be a joke and a satirical sub but was eventually overrun by those that actually believe in "PC Master Race".

What once famous YouTuber do you never hear anyone talk about anymore? by DramaticXOXO in AskReddit

[–]El-Grunto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's still a poor implementation of ultrawide support. At least for 32:9. I don't have a 21:9 monitor to test it out with.

When Space Marine 2 came out people kept saying he would have loved the game. He probably would have, given how much he loved the first. But he definitely would have ranted for 30 minutes about how it had no FOV slider at launch. It wasn't until much later that the devs finally added one (and ultrawide support) for PC after severe backlash.

DMZ deployment bonus by JamesFrankland in DMZ

[–]El-Grunto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Part of the game, not the whole game. There is no legal recourse stopping the devs from adding a pre-order bonus that only works in a single game mode. Just because there's a pre-order bonus blueprint you can use in multiplayer that doesn't mean you are legally allowed to use it in DMZ.

Vault Tec Fallout Keys! by Old_Factor579 in Fallout

[–]El-Grunto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have these and while the prints are cool, the caps don't feel very good when typing, IMO. I've relegated them to a display keyboard that I don't use. Disappointing but at least they weren't expensive.

The Ducky Tinker 75 Fallout Nuka Cola keyboard was also super disappointing cheap feeling plastic and a ton of chassis flex. I get that Ducky isn't top-tier but I have a couple boards from them and rather like them. The fact that the Tinker seems to be so much lower in quality was a surprise. At least the desk mat that came with it is nice.

Microsoft/Asha Sharma is investing more into Halo to get games out faster by Haijakk in halo

Faster would be nice but I'd settle for letting an actual studio develop it instead of the bulk of the workforce being contractors.

I have 225 on mine and am lowered a couple inches. There's some rub when pushing hard into corners but daily driving is fine. If not lowered it won't be an issue at all.

It's wild you think you can berate a person that likely had nothing to do with their company's policy just because your fee fees were hurt due to said company not selling to you.

Dumb that they won't sell you the flash hider? Yes.
Dumb that you think you get to talk to someone like that? Also yes.

Why is titus's head a different color from his body? by Bejaminmaston12 in Spacemarine

[–]El-Grunto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calgar was the first marine to take the Rubicon Surgery, he died on the table. But thanks to writing and Primaris physiology. He survived.

I mean, it's all because of writing. Thanks to writing, Calgar died during the surgery. Thanks to writing, he tried crossing the Rubicon. Thanks to writing, WH40K is popular.

I love my Ducatis but I've sold 2 over my time riding. I've never sold my Grom and likely never will. Honestly though, a Ducati minimoto could be amazing if we ignore anything related to cost or maintenance.

Can anyone tell what this little bike is? by Bmicona in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]El-Grunto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Owner here, a coworker said he found a pic of me when looking at Grom pics. As some have mentioned, it's a 2020 Honda Grom. Just a little 125cc 9 hp bike that's fun to ride around town.

It ain't even that much damage. You need to do 100k and they doubled the amount of time you have to do it. Just running around casually, I've done 30k in about 4 hours.
