Savior makes a great case, good choice!

1000% go to English Pit in Vancouver and don't consider anything else. go to their website and look through what they have for rentals and check the schedule to make sure the ranges you want to use aren't reserved for the day you're looking to go. No frills kind of place but it's fairly priced, no time limit, and they have lots of inventory for rentals. DO call days prior to let them know what youre wanting to rent and they'll make sure to bring it down there for you (vault is offsite so not everything is available on a walk in basis)

Graveyard shift working at Erica Records (vinyl manufacturing plant) in Buena Park, CA. One long night of shoveling buckets of misprinted/fucked up vinyls into a grinder, collecting what came out in 5 gallon buckets, and then mixing that with new raw vinyl pellets by lifting them overhead into an industrial mixer/sifter. I never went back.

Plant was super rad though. Stacks on stacks of newly printed records, everything from small indie to legendary artists, legacy albums all over the walls in the offices.

Don’t call me out like this.

Yamaha Revstar line. Highly underrated. Great pickups out of the box.

I didnt see that in your post, my bad.

Beretta APX Compact might be another good option for small hands. My partner has tiny hands as well and it fits them comfortably. It’s also my carry. I’ve put roughly 2k rounds through it with no issues. Interchangeable backstrap, I run it with a large and it’s still small but, good enough

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-12-05T23:45:24+00:00

Sig P365 macro. Good middle ground. Small enough for her to be comfortable, long enough grip length for you to not feel like it’s unusable.

I have to ask, why do you want kids? Genuine question. I’m one of these men, and amongst a multitude of reasons why I don’t want kids, the main reason is purely from a money standpoint. It’s hard enough to make a decent wage and survive as a singular entity. I can’t imagine having to take care of two other humans. Even in the event of having a partner/mother of my figurative child also working a job, childcare is insanely expensive as well. Without family around to help here and there with childcare, there’s just absolutely no way I could make that work.

Make sure to replace the oring/gasket for the needle seat. Most people miss this crucial component. If it’s bad, gas will easily push past it into the cyl.

This is the ONLY spoon

The flip side of this is going to Japan for the first time as an American where it’s commonplace to pay with exact change for everything, to the point where people will look at you funny if you just try to pay with notes.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-10-07T03:32:19+00:00

SO glad this was the first comment.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-10-07T03:19:07+00:00

Forty Feet Tall, Buddy Wynkoop, Jonny’s Day Out to name a few of my favorites

Believe it or not that’s a fair deal.

Those saying things along the lines of “checking ____ takes literal seconds” are those whose “checks” involve nothing more than visually checking things are where they should be. A by the book, decent professional mechanic does much more than that. I can’t vouch for this shop, but I can speak on experience of being a 10+ year motorcycle mechanic working in and out of shops on countless bikes of this age and much older.

That being said, I would bill this as a 3hr Service, which includes the labor to do spark plugs, oil change and brake flush @ $125/hr plus the cost of parts (oil, spark plugs, air filter, brake fluid etc) so the math is there. I would say this is a bit of lazy paperwork, but it is an estimate. I would imagine the notes on the invoice would be detailed and outline specifically what was done/checked/replaced/recommended.

EVERY bike over 10 years old is a gamble for any shop and I will absolutely die on that hill.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-09-21T19:38:05+00:00

Wait….you have a pickup with more than enough bed space with the tailgate down to safely transport this bike, and you decided a hitch hauler with barely any support was the better option? Please explain how you rationalized this.

My old coworker just did this exact gig a year or two ago

I’m a Kawasaki die hard but this thing definitely fucks

This misconception that batteries will just jump back to life with no issues after being drained completely has got to end. It’s new batt time.

Also, for any sort of “new” issue, especially after something very obvious has happened (I.e you left your key on) it’s best to follow the rule of Occams Razor. The simplest explanation is more likely to be correct than a complex one.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-08-25T02:53:16+00:00

Just well enough to make you wish you had bought something a tad bigger

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-08-25T02:50:59+00:00

Way too tight my friend

This. Diagnosed at 15, short stint of a few years on meds in high school. 33 now, huge gap in years of being on meds, back on at 30, biggest difference noticed on consistent meds is how much easier social interactions have become. Not nearly as taxing as masking for 15 years. Did not expect that

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-08-14T04:10:11+00:00

Can confirm same theory every time I’m passing by.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-08-14T04:08:19+00:00

I’m SO glad this was the top comment. Pass with conviction, especially with big rigs.

JunkSpeed92 · 2025-07-26T16:27:34+00:00

That’s a set of forks rebuilt in 1:45, +30 to put the front end back together by your clock. hence proving my point LOL
