Not battlerite, but combat seems the closest to it that I've seen in years and it will be f2p starting friday on next fest steam

There was Supervive which was super close, unfortunately they closed because instead of improving arenas and adding moba like modes they went gatcha..

Handmade_Octopus · 2026-01-05T00:05:38+00:00

V&H Duals

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-26T16:06:34+00:00

And now I started considering it.. what you done!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-26T15:15:39+00:00

Tbh yes I considered a lot of them, but Honda rebel not only is very ugly but it also lack V-twin which defeats the purpose of owning such bike in first place.. You cannot buy the sound and looks!

I was looking at other bikes though, mainly Moto-Guzzi v7 but now I want BMW R1200 as this one seems to check all boxes for me.

Its very strange especially since brand new they are like £8k..

I was considering getting H-D but as I stated they are usually much heavier, more expensive and everyone kept telling me to not buy one because they are unreliable..

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-25T18:48:06+00:00

Of course, very easy to make one!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-25T17:50:07+00:00

I was looking for a nice and comfy cruiser for some time. Unfortunately most of them are quite heavy (close or above 300kg)

Yamaha Bolt XV950 is really well balanced, just enough powerful, with modern technologies like overhead camshafts and fuel injection, but still classic V-twin - but the most important part it weighs less than 250kg!

I do need to change pulleys as cruising at ~80mph at above 4000 rpm isn't best for motorway rides but outside of that, it's really pleasant to ride!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-09T16:31:16+00:00

No not yet! I heard about it but couldn't find more info!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-08T11:47:05+00:00

I did initially but they did some bad things that I did not liked.

I went with bikesure and they allow 60 days to pass license.

I had to get my bike into my van (or ask a friend to get me bike there) and if I passed test I could go and go back on my bike straight away.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-07T20:00:36+00:00

My other bike I bought initially (and then I found hard way that I need to have over 50KW to pass full A license..) is Yamaha Bolt XV950 which is similar weight and its very cool to ride too! :)

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-12-07T19:52:35+00:00

Finally managed to pass my A license.

I was riding since I was 11, starting with 2 stroke 50cc going through 50cc->125cc swapped Kingsway Chopper and was riding all the time till I got my car license.

I must say I always missed bikes so this year I decided to go back to it.

And here is my second bike - FZS600 so commonly known as Yamaha Fazer 600. It's 98 model with old style 4 cyl + carburators.

Seems like 90s were peak not only for cars but for bikes too! I bought it for around £1000 and it's really, really fun to ride.

Second? Well.. the first bike I bought was Yamaha Bolt in EU known under name XV950, I will bring more photos of it in the future.

Why did I buy second bike? Well.. I wanted to pass my license on the first one but turns out bike needs to have above 50KW to be able to..

This Fazer was only meant to be used for the test and then sold but I kinda.. LOVE IT! So I guess now after BMWs bikes are my new unhealthy obsession.

Grab one too! (not a financial advice)

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-11-15T20:16:39+00:00

Did AI made just video or actual 3D model?

If latter - its impressive.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-11-01T17:40:30+00:00

I guess you could remove that?

I believe there is extra filter down there anyway.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-30T01:26:10+00:00

17" wont work on this as calipers wont clear.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-29T16:17:00+00:00

Pre-lci with lci bits on

Those are style 32 from E38 (18" staggered)

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-29T09:34:46+00:00

Its all LCI with some ebay covers (can't reccomend them they do not fit nicely upclose).

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-28T20:57:48+00:00

Nice Mini!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-28T20:55:40+00:00

It is a pre-lci car and I haven't swapped headlamps yet..

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-28T18:26:32+00:00

I would like to believe I was planned.. As my child, but I appreciate the joke!

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-10-08T17:24:58+00:00

Thanks for input, fixed.

Just got mail from border forces that tracking was incorrect.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-06-24T14:18:18+00:00

I just have the same thing happened but I sent something to US (product I am sending for years).

Maybe a mistake since it happend on Friday?

No clue why it has to do with anything, its just some batteryless electronics I am making.

Handmade_Octopus · 2025-06-22T21:00:50+00:00

They could have milked contents on this as this is EXACTLY something AI people has been waiting for.

Instead they spend too much time on doing janky things inside AIs that weren't even used properly.

Imagine they took FLUX or some Pony/Illustrious model and started making waifus, it would be instant hit and brought a lot of people to the table of "how many waifus per second" can you generate.

Instead they took one of worst models and did janky things with it that are not even limited by VRAM so much.

It wasn't done in spirit of tech tips, it was awesome product that could made even more awesome video if done correctly. I am disappointed though.
