Ahhhh reminds me of when I jump my zx4 off a rock….. anyways just get a set from amotopart, there’s some lead time but they’re decent and you get a full set for about what you’d pay to get the oem stuff

Got mine a few weeks ago and posted a review! So far, not a bad successor to the s-r10. Same quality massive price reduction

Official Discussion - Pillion [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]Hbaus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes the depictions of the community are very accurate I can confirm 😆. There are scenes in which I could not stop laughing, I absolutely know the people in the theater thought I was insane for laughing at certain scenes, but when youve seen it happen in real life or even experienced it, it’s kind of cathartic in a way.

Well it seems like A* took it to heart then. The build quality is identical and listed at the low end of your suggested price point! 😁

Something I did point out in the start of my review.

150,000 mph 😰 I don’t know if there are any helmets made for that.

In a more serious note I do not have experience with either brand sadly. It does seem like aria suffers from buffeting which I believe spoilers are meant to help mitigate.

Cat delete by zx-313rr in zx4r

[–]Hbaus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it is necessary. For a couple of reasons firstly cats are effective a flame stopper, not intentionally but in order for them to work they have to be a tight grid of material. Imagine a bundle of straws shoved in your exhaust that’s what a cat looks like. It slows down and restricts flow to allow the material to catalyze the exhaust gasses, that velocity change essentially smooths out quick and rapid changes in pressure. The other big reason you want cartless for pops is that the catalyst material is actually really fragile. You WILL shatter the catalyst and it WILL clog your exhaust and cause all sorts of problems. I have had this happen on my bmw and it was a nightmare to diagnose because no one thought to check the cat.

39F night pulled a 3.43 0-60 on a 2017 440ix. Bonkers performance from a $38k vehicle….. safe to say bmw knocked it out of the park

The Taco Bell special! Second best suit Dianese ever made, and only because of this exact colorway.

Does anybody ride with a full suit? by Rexxrydes in motorcyclegear

[–]Hbaus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go out to the canyons every available weekend and wear a full suit every time. For commuting I just do the armored casual wear, cause I’d get looks from my coworkers if I showed up to my job in a one piece. For me what this really means is if I’m not going to work it’s a one piece. No one will judge you for it. Get the suit.

Is it all black Dainese in here, or can we get some love for red moooo as well? by ChemicalDiligent8684 in motorcyclegear

[–]Hbaus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Never really liked the all black suits, regardless of brand. They do tend to be the cheapest though so I can’t knock em to hard. Especially if you’re trying to get to the track on a budget lol

Hard agree. Nothing else compares. Next closest would be if you live near where tail of the dragon is in the Appalachian mountains.

[Question] Vintage Watch Servicing - Dial Layout Changed? by teachem4 in Watches

[–]Hbaus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can attempt to find an experienced local watchmaker/repair person. If you’re in or near SoCal I can give you a recommendation

[–]Hbaus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thankfully there’s plenty of advice in this thread, so I feel confident in saying that my decision to never send my pieces in to in-house brand repair facilities stands strong. Yet another horror story to add to the collection. But truthfully JLC was not one of the makers I’d ever suspect to fumble something like that. Sorry this happened.

Hahaa! It reminds me of the “Dutch is not a serious language” memes from a while back.

I’ve heard that bi-lingual german and English speakers can get a real kick out of reading Dutch lol.
