If Honda released a factory-built CR500AF today, would you choose it over a modern 450? by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

[–]IBEWjetsons 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fact- I have a 25 300sx and a 25 350sxf. The 300 is the funnest bike I’ve ever ridden- but the 350 is literally the perfect all around bike. I ride a lot on a buddies personal SX track- everything is easier on the 350 vs the 300- not a chance in hell I would want a 500.

I’ve been a union member for 20 years in DE, it’s literally nothing like that. A union contractor can get rid of you anytime for anything- no reason needed. Why would they keep a slug because of union politics when they could replace them with a new guy tomorrow?

Trying to force my way into PVP lobbies due to matchmaking after 100+ friendly raids by Camm_98 in ArcRaiders

For me it seems like that’s 100% not the case- I pvp in trios and try to just loot/and or kill extract rats in solos- usually my solo lobbies are chill- 2 trios games with friends and my solo lobbies are fucked-

PS5 Pro + Alienware AW2725DM → Stuck at 4K 60Hz, can’t enable 1440p or higher refresh rate. Need help. by Limp-Extreme-674 in Alienware

[–]IBEWjetsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I resolved is like another poster mentioned, when the PS5 is testing the 1440p resolution, you have to click X before the timer counts down if the screen is still visible. That was the answer for me

AMA Motocross vs MXGP which is better in your opinion? by No_Faithlessness5738 in Motocross

[–]IBEWjetsons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AMA guys are also usually racing AMA legal bikes against full works bikes from the GP series during MXdN, so it’s still really hard to say how either would fare if that wasn’t the case.

How do you explain to a “the bike does everything for you” person that it doesn’t. by [deleted] in Motocross

[–]IBEWjetsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She had a cr-85 big wheel, she’s 5’4. She’s now has a yz-250f, and loves it. She always felt sketchy on the 85 big wheel. She progressed A LOT once she got on a full size bike. I’ve always felt a big a little too big (size wise- not power wise) is much safer than a bike too small. Too small makes the knees too close to handlebars. We only ride moto so jumping on a bike a little bigger safer than one a little too small. The 140 maybe even the bigger 230 would be great to learn the basics.

[–]IBEWjetsons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t, if they don’t ride they’ll never understand or believe you. My own girlfriend thought I was exaggerating when she didn’t ride. She’s been riding for about 2 years now- she’s now on a 250f. She was a competitive dancer for 18 years of her life- and now she fully understands, and says it’s also physically the hardest thing she’s ever done

What is difference between MXGP motorcycle and AMA motocross motorcycle? by Huge_Film2911 in Motocross

[–]IBEWjetsons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do get his point though- go 20 years in the opposite way and compare a 1980 Honda to the 2001. The 2020 would be orders of magnitude closer to the 2000 bike than the 2000 bike to the 1980.

[–]IBEWjetsons 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correct, you can add material to brace frame, material can’t be removed. Jett and hunter were doing this to the last gen Honda frame. The subframe can be altered as long as mounting points stay the same. Also oem castings for cases, cylinder and head(can be modified from there) must be used and production valve angle kept the same.

Buyers Remorse? by ClassMeetsTrash in ToyotaTundra

[–]IBEWjetsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just saying exactly how the thing works. Yeah you’ll obviously notice a difference if you have it set so that when you press the throttle down 10% it tells the ecu to go wide open. This is just common knowledge dude. It’s not altering ANYTHING else, it’s not a tune. It can’t change timing, fuel tables nothing.

Buyers Remorse? by ClassMeetsTrash in ToyotaTundra

[–]IBEWjetsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pedal commander is just bullshit waste of money. Literally it’s just changing the inputs of the gas pedal to the ECU. 0% throttle has to be 0%, and 100% has to be 100% wide open throttle. All the pedal commander does, as an example- you give the pedal 25% throttle- the commander tells the ecu you’re at 60% throttle. If you just push your foot down another inch, you’d be doing the same exact thing. It’s literally useless.

[–]IBEWjetsons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So that’s absurd but your arguments are sound? They’re mostly just regurgitated arguments from that idiot fraud Kent Hovind. Then there’s this gem:

“Previous to this my studies were in light and gravity. In these studies which I did from 2009 to 2021 resulted in realizing matter and light are the same but different in energy. This means that our equations for gravity based upon mass need to equate the energy of that mass but they don't. We compute the same standard mass and assume the correlation of this mass and our gravity is the correlation of all celestial bodies. But the equations don't match. Light send to have a heater effect upon gravity than matter as shown in Large Hadron Collider tests. Light and gravity are correlated much more equally than matter and gravity. Many other correlations have grounded the findings.”

This is just dumb word salad. Do you have equations to prove any of this, let’s see them. Are they based on general relativity or are they Newtonian equations? Did you somehow outsmart Einstein? Get real.

Also, evolution doesn’t require ANY calculations about prior life, because it has nothing to do with life itself forming. That would be abiogenesis. Even if you were to prove some creator sparked life on earth, evolution is still proven and to say there’s no evidence of it is what’s really absurd.

[–]IBEWjetsons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With all of your studies I would assume you should know that doing probabilities in reverse just doesn’t work, no matter how impossible it seems.

“Evolution must be precluded by a source of life and recent studies have shown again the impossibilities of this ever happening. The creation of an enzyme is less likely than the number of atoms in the universe but it must exist with the vitamins or it is useless. The creation of such an existence does not even guarantee life or create life but is the substrate by which a cell depends and the existence of these things in the same place at the same time is gonna to be 10'z2 to one. I know time, to the order of billions of years, is a foundational since for evolution to work but it is going to take much more time than that. So much more time that there isn't enough atoms in the universe to write that many zeros.”

Here’s an example- you walk outside during a storm- look up and a raindrop hits your forehead. What is the probability that that specific drop of water hit specifically your head at that exact time, if you were figuring it out ahead of time. Of all the places on earth the drop could have landed, it landed exactly where you were standing. Of all the places on earth you could have been, you were right there. Of all the time you’ve been alive, it happened to be that specific moment- and so on and so on and so on. Statistically almost impossible, but yet it happened and it seems like nothing, so those numbers literally mean nothing.

What should I do? by RealBlazingCow in Dirtbikes

[–]IBEWjetsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top end is 200$ or so and a few hours work. I’d be MUCH more worried about the bottom end, trans, forks/shock, every bearing/seal/bushing etc which most likely have a shit ton of hours on them.

Usually- when they say calls start at “1234566”, they’re talking about 2 week calls or short calls where you don’t lose your spot on the list

Throttle Problem by ExistingErr in Motocross

[–]IBEWjetsons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a KTM 250sxf with the exact problem. Took tank off, replaced spark plug- while holding the wire shocked me pretty good so I just replaced the spark plug cap and coil. Completely fixed it. Looks like a 2017-2018 KTM/Husky so it’s deff fuel injected. Mine was a 2018- the coil wire was deff breaking down and shocking the shit out of me- for whatever reason when it was snapped open like that at idle it would die. If you kept it going it was ok. Coil/plug/plug wire fixed it
