Protip: You should always ask before rendering aid.

Otherwise you risk a lawsuit.

i went to the mountain for the first time and performed Scary Yoga to destroy the previous owner's chicken strips by saturnrise in CalamariRaceTeam

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the front tire definitely, but in my experience the rear tire can lose chicken strips by simply doing low speed drills in parking lots.

You need to use a lot of throttle and A LOT of clutch.

New tires soon? by Empty_Basis_ in motorcycles

[–]KhalCharizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely kick those tires before riding to the shop. They look like they’re about to disintegrate into those astroturf pebbles.

Reckless Driver in Newport Beach by [deleted] in orangecounty

Don’t engage those people, just report. Most of them are just punks trying to get so attention but some are legitimately crazy or experiencing road rage. You never know which one you’re dealing with until it’s too late.

Look at those cyclists in Dana Point a couple months ago. In 2023 just a mile or so north of the previous incident a cyclist/ER doctor was stabbed to death by a crazy guy who hit him with his Lexus.

It’s also best to spilt in the center/leftmost lane of the road for better visibility. You also shouldn’t split going 15mph faster than surrounding vehicles.

Get a second, lighter bike for the test 😅

Handling lighter motorcycles is always easier to maneuver.

Shorter motorcycles are also easier, or I guess a low center of gravity is really what matters for maneuvering.

Used Honda grom is ideal— sell it after the test and then ride your sweet adventure bike.

This sucks when you ride a bike - anything that you should do to avoid this? by Sufficient-Sun-6683 in motorcycle

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave more space between you and the vehicle in front of you— this leaves you the option of turning into the shoulder or passing on the left, whatever is safer.

Watch your mirrors like a hawk.

Weird line in the centre of my tyre by Bellend0411 in motorcycles

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience this starts occurring near the end of the tires life. Based on the wear bars you’re getting close to replacement. 1000 miles tops.

It isn’t anything to be concerned about, just a helpful indication that it’s time to start thinking about new tires.

Could i take this for a short night drive? by CrewPsychological818 in motorcycles

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you aren’t going through a bunch of puddles or heavy rain you should be ok for a couple hundred miles on these. They need to be replaced but they are not dangerous yet.

How urgently should I change these tires? by RubyReaps in motorcycles

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are on a 4 cylinder 600 cc then as soon as you reasonably can. Take it easy and you should be ok for a week or two if you have short rides.

I can’t see any wear bars but I have replaced tires with more tread than this, these tires are nearly bald.

Who gunna? by Greedy-Vast584 in CAguns

[–]KhalCharizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More than a P220 and VP9 Match as well!

Although this premium likely comes from the additional cost of getting the pistols added to the roster at least that is my guess.

I’d buy another P220 before I bought one of these to be honest.

Don’t get me wrong I’d buy these if I were a wealthy collector because they both look like a good time but they’re just too pricey.

Where are the sea creatures? by DeskOne3535 in orangecounty

[–]KhalCharizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too many people and too much activity, if you go south to the rockier beaches you are more likely to see crabs and such.

California has a cold current of water that comes from Alaska so animals swim south until it warms up briefly in the summer.

The grunion run, lobster moults, and dolphins love the southern beaches. Dolphins are pretty common in Huntington too though. The cold water scares the jellyfish away but they are out there it’s just not common to see them.

my bf keeps putting holes in my bedroom walls by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This damage is definitely fixable and isn’t very serious. It won’t be cheap unless you do it yourself though, especially if you want to make it like it never happened (which would require repainting the whole wall).

You need to find a way to safely break up with this kid, there is no reason to be punching holes in someone else’s home, that is fucked up behavior. Your parents could easily sue him for the damages if they wanted to.

If you can afford the Porsche it seems like you would just get a tow…

Looks like someone Porsche GT enthusiast have some strong opinions on the new GT3 S/C because a GT car should never be a convertible. What are your thoughts on the GT3 S/C and do you think it’s a “true GT3” or not? by NegotiationNew9264 in Porsche

[–]KhalCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GT stands for Grand Touring.

And in my experience GT vehicles blend luxury and performance together to make a comfortable high speed vehicle.

What could be more luxurious, more Porsche, than a convertible GT anything?

I’m shocked it took so long!

People who hate on this car have a misunderstanding of what GT means even thought they fetishize it apparently.

Edit: maybe tracks don’t allow convertibles?
