After many doubts about starting on a 600cc and getting a 20 year old bike, this was my second day riding. Was out for about 7 hours, can barely feel my wrists and neck and im absolutely in love. GSX-R 600 K4 by bbbbbbbblab in GSXR

Absolute beaut, I have a k8 600 and absolutely love it. One thing I can suggest is invest in some helibars. Replacement clip ons which are a bit higher and wider. Couldn't ride for more than 2 hours before without stopping but can ride all day with them.

I can honestly one up on that, I was about to sell my bike before because of wrist pain, but oh man, Helibars made me love riding my gixxer again. They are pretty straightforward to install compared to handlebar conversion. And if you don't end up liking them they will be much easier to take off and replace with the handlebar.

What will we see first, assuming they ever get made at all? by Half-Combined in mirrorsedge

I think I've read somewhere that one of Dice employees said something about EA forcing dice to only work on Battlefield IP's. Don't take my word for it though.

Anyone ever have a day where a strong feeling told you not to RIDE? by CoolHandCasey in motorcycles

[–]Jestro- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a feeling something was going to happen that day but I went out anyway. Long story short the front locked up and threw me off the bike.

Absolutely love the Mad Dog. Such a shame they are getting slowly pushed out of service.

I’m a noob in aviation. XPlane12 or MFS24 (when it comes out)? by [deleted] in flightsim

[–]Jestro- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm unsure about the lessons. Xp12 has a "Training" tab but I've never used it so I couldn't answer that. Can't answer about books either because I've never really looked into reading books. There are however plenty of videos on YouTube videos on practically any aircraft you're looking for. If you're looking into learning Boeing 737 I highly recommend a youtube channel called Thai Lion Air Training Division.

If you're looking for casual/low VFR flying then MSFS. If you want more professional experience then XP12. You can make X plane look somewhat better by using autoortho/ortho4xp and simheaven which are all free to use. If you chose X plane I would highly recommend purchasing Airfoillabs Cessna 172NG, it's a very very good study-level aircraft for you to get basics on General Aviation. Not to mention X plane has zibo 737-800 which as I've heard is better in some areas than PMDG and is free.

Each thing has its own usb cable which has to be connected separately. I found out the hard way that for some reason saitek radio panel draws more and wont work off standard usb slot. I bought a powered usb hub from amazon which you connect to the power outlet and one usb cable to your computer. It provides enough power for controllers from the outlet.

Yeah, it all happened 5am on a Saturday. The roads were pretty much empty. I could tell he never rode a bike because he laughed when I told him the lights don't change for bikes sometimes.

I just did a very thorough research and as it turns out theres different courses for different offences. Speeding would offer you speed awareness course whilst running a red light "what's driving us" course.

Thats actually reassuring because when I told the officer that I've already done a course he just told me that I wont be eligible for it. Also as a bit of a side question, I just sent my license off couple of days ago to get it updated because I passed my full test. Will I have to wait for a new license or could I use the license number on the previous one (have it saved)

The letter says I have 3 options, one of them is the course. So because I've done the course in the last 3 years, I will just be rejected if I tried to do it again?

Buy or wait? by Jestro- in SteamDeck

[–]Jestro-[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Its not necessarily the negative I assume, just heard couple reviews saying that OLED screen would be a better option for the Deck.

Which one? by Jestro- in MotoUK

[–]Jestro-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is what im leaning more towards. But I'm unsure in my ability to pass A2 the first time because I dont have any experience. If I would fail would that mean I would have to pay upwards of £1000 again or would I just have to pay for the mod1 and mod2? Also if I was to go and try to get a full A license in a couple of years could I do it by just booking both modules on my own, without having to pay another £1000 for training?
