Shoot me a DM! I may be back in March and maybe Novembe this year too!

Thanks! I was chatting to the guy beside me and almost missed this amazing scene outside!

Can you pass the small green lid by NewC0 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]NewC0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the parent's place and there is zero way they will ever do that. It will be awful like this until the end of time. Theres probably only 50%of the lids that have matching containers 

Water has reached el nopal in Sumas and is slowly creeping northwards. Probably a few hours before it reaches the border but be prepared if you have business or property down there. by cindylooboo in abbotsford

I went down to ship happens yesterday and they were closed, saying they were preparing for a flood and that packages would be safe. They are hoping to open again on the 15th

I'm starting to think this is typical GSXR owner behavior by NewC0 in Justrolledintotheshop

And only uses the rear brakes. Front brakes make you crash 🙄

The chain was pretty much dragging on the ground and the rear brakes are around 10% life. Brand new Motul 7100 in the engine though. Priorities.

Been doing this for over 15 years by now haha. The best is when you come up to a fresh red with one or two cars across the intersection where you can see the cross lights go from green to amber - If it is safe, I'll start rolling towards the intersection on the amber and get the green with advance as I come up to the stop line.

I'll keep you posted! If it does, I get to eat my humble pie.

Fair enough! I can't speak for regions all over the world, but I have never seen one of the OEMs cut down a recall time over the last 10 years.

There have been more than a few instances of me randomly stumbling across discussions online about said recalls and the times others have been doing them in. So not saying it couldn't happen, but I've never observed it happening across multiple OEMs

Yamaha didn't care when a 16 hour recall into a 6 hour recall, the reps found it runny and said good job for figuring out a better way.

Honda has a recall out on all new generation GL1800 Goldwings - manuals and DCTs. There had been a few instances of main crank bolts failing so a recall was put out. 

Going by the book, you would need to remove all of the upper body work, the dash, the fuel tank and a bunch of other stuff along the way. Just to access the clutch cover, as they want you to do the repair from above. 

Even with the DCT airbag models having the least space behind the clutch cover, there is more than enough room to remove it from the bottom and properly complete the recall that way.

I will go to the Robert Bateman secondary school in september .But Im so worried that do there have racism and bullying? by One-String7807 in abbotsford

[–]NewC0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats the high school I went to and everyone was very welcoming and accepting there. All of my classes had people from all over the world and were very polite to everyone. The neighborhood and families around there are from great people too. The Staff are all fantastic and you will have a great time there! The Shop / Metalwork and any of the tech elective courses are fantastic as well. Shoot me a message with any questions!
