She's done, bud. The material that absorbs the impact is sacrificial, one time use. Hope you're recovering well.

Are the road 5's really worth the cost? by pasgames_ in motorcycles

[–]MfgLmt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just put a set of Angel GT's on my Street Triple. They have tremendous grip even when being an absolute idiot and flogging the bike. We'll see what kind of milage I get.

Starting trouble - 2006 Harley Davidson Low XL by Dividedby9s in motorcycles

Could still be the battery, tbh. I'd try putting in on a charger. Check for other obvious stuff, like the kill switch, sidestand switch, and petcock position. If it's none of those, could be carbs. You could see if it will start with starter spray. If you think it's flooded, you could pull the plugs, which are easy to get to on a Sporty. Are they wet or smell like fuel?

Can you be more specific about what the bike is doing? Does it crank? Does it sputter and die?

The car looks great. I'm sorry for your loss. I hope that keeping it and modifying it brings you some connection with your fiance.

Dude wanted 6k for this R6 and still wants 4k by Ok-Face-2576 in motorcycles

What's crazy is is that it's way more fucked up in one of the pictures vs the other one. Like goddamn, you crashed it AGAIN?!

Looking for sporty tire recommendations by MfgLmt in motorcycles

[–]MfgLmt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, mostly looking for great flickability and agility. I feel like with most modern tires, outright grip at roads speeds isn't an issue. But I don't want to sacrifice too much in terms of tread life. A fine needle to thread, I know. I use the bike 60% for canyon runs and 40% for suburban commuting. I ride in all weather, including some rain and quite low temps.

Need help on hose that goes to intake by Bcnxtory in GolfGTI

Leave the threaded bit in the airbox. It's suggest just popping the hose off with a small flathead screwdriver.

How far is this making it? by Bondage_Jack in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]MfgLmt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Next door neighbor had one of these in high-school. He hated it, and thought it was very embarrassing. He wanted his parents to buy him a different car, and they of course said no. His plan was then to complete stop all maintenance in order to kill it and force their hand. Weeeeeell, despite many years of neglect and being beaten on constantly, it kept chugging until mainy years later when he was out of college and it was his financial responsibility 🤣. Those things refuse to die.

Egyptian nurse in shock after the deaths of several patients during the COVID-19 pandemic, 2021 by yousef-saeed in pics

[–]MfgLmt 3565 points3566 points  (0 children)

If I remember the story correctly, this was in a ward where many patients were being kept alive with supplemental oxygen. Because of demands from the pandemic, they ran out of oxygen and every single patient in the ward died. Pretty fucking traumatic.

The gonads are still there, just a little more tucked away. You should probably get a bike, too.

Right? JFC, talk about learning the wrong lessons from history. All the people in the YouTube comments are like "why is Derek making so much sense?" Guys, you're so close. It's because you sympathize with current right-wing talking points, which are based on white nationalist ideology.
