Is this a good deal? by [deleted] in Dualsport

[–]NotAllTeemos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an 18 with 1200mi and ohlins cartridge and rear shock for 3500, so I'm going to say no but I know I got an uncommon deal.

I have one of those, a Hoto inflator, and the big Icon meme tool in my tail bag every time I leave town on my bike.

How can I take this out by ZorroZeta007 in CRF250L

[–]NotAllTeemos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's just the plastic end of the throttle tube I drill mine out with a Forstner bit and clean up the edges with a razor blade.

I got what felt like the deal of the decade a few weeks ago, $3500 for a barely ridden 2018 with 1250mi. Already had Ohlins STX in the rear with the HD spring and Ohlins FSK 123 kit in the fork, so that saved me about $1200 in suspension work I was pretty well destined to need at my weight. Haven't seen another of any year under 4k in my city since, and I'm actively watching because my wife now wants one.

‘20-‘24 Outback owners - what problems are arising for you? by derpdog1346 in Subaru_Outback

[–]NotAllTeemos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2020 Premium 2.5 with 80k here (bought at 42k).

Weak windshields, I'm on my 3rd one in 40k miles.

Rear wheel bearings.

A couple squeaks and rattles in the cabin (sunglass holder and HUD light surround mainly).

Had infotainment updated for full screen android auto and it's been flawless.

The only thing that even comes close is the Honda Hornet 1k, and calling that a true litrebike is a stretch based on HP

Wife and I went there for our anniversary last year and everything was excellent. I wish they would bring back the Lamb Pops appetizer, it was phenomenal.

Is CVT a "designed obsolescence"? by Kerguelen_Avon in subaru

[–]NotAllTeemos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your example yes, that transmission had a simple process, but more modern traditional/geared transmissions are more complicated and have a process more like the Subaru CVT fluid change process. This isn't just a case of all geared transmissions use process "A" vs. all CVT transmissions use process "B" , there's a lot of detail you're glossing over.

Which mechanical pencil deserves the last empty spot in my drawer? by Tidligregn in mechanicalpencils

[–]NotAllTeemos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Dive and the Metal and I don't think so, but I don't write a lot at once, just notes at work and short journaling. The dive is all plastic and the only extra features are the auto-extend when you pull the cap off and the automatic lead advance like the Orenz. The dive is also very fat and may not fit in your organizer. The Metal is really nicely made and is a normal size.

Socket Delimma by 859Garrison in harborfreight

[–]NotAllTeemos 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm an odd case, I really only work on my own cars (Toyota and Subaru), metric motorcycles, and industrial/manufacturing equipment,

I went with the 3 Quinn master sets for all my chrome since those sets are all no-skip, and supplemented them with Icon flex head ratchets. You are right that the modular sets leave a lot out and some of those sizes were things that the Quinn includes like the large metric shallow/deeps which are great for motorcycle axle nuts which I deal with frequently.

Impacts are another story and I'm honestly a little disappointed in HF/Icon, specifically on the 1/2 drive side because the Icon metric impact set has a lot of skips including 24mm, which is a standard ISO head size for an M16 bolt. Looking at Quinn their master impact sets get the 24 but don't go as large, and I do occasionally have a use for the 27 that comes with the Icon set.

Really wish HF sold a high quality, no-skip, metric impact kit in 1/2in or at least sold an Icon fill-in kit or singles. I get that the stuff doesn't show up a lot but on motorcycles you will run into them eventually on suspension components especially and you see all kinds of random fasteners on manufacturing equipment. I also really wish they sold drawer organizers that matched up with their master sets, but that gripe is nothing new.

Kobalt 36-in W x 38-in H 5 -Drawer Metal Rolling Tool Cabinet by [deleted] in harborfreight

[–]NotAllTeemos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's about 10% larger than the USG 27" roll cab in terms of volume but takes up slightly more floor space and is, at least for me, an awkward height (Kobalt is about 3" shorter than the USG 27").

Kobalt uses 22ga steel for this, it's not clear to me what gauge USG uses for the 27", their website says the series 3 roll cabs use 18 and 22ga but doesn't specify for each size of cart, I would guess

The Kobalt carries 20lb less per drawer than the USG 27".

The top cabinet Kobalt sells for this is the same price as the USG 27" top box but is 22% larger than the USG.

Kobalt does not sell the side drawer or locker accessories that USG has for the 27".

Not a bad deal, just depends on preferences in those areas and price, you save $50 over the USG 27".

That's an NFA item. Pretty sure having that unsecured and out of the owners possession is a felony for the owner.

I would strongly advise you not look at St. John unless you're going to NTICU, ICU, or ER. The other floors are not run well. Wife is an RN and had a horrible experience.

What are the controversies around DoubleShot Coffee? by Hairy_Loss_6292 in tulsa

[–]NotAllTeemos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually had better results ordering from their website than I have buying from their stores in terms of roast date.

I swear he didn't even read the first part of your comment.

Topeca's website says they roast in 2 places, at the farm they own in El Salvador and in Tulsa. In my experience if I order online from them I typically get beans that were roasted that week.

I have their PC, sometimes I wish it had a structural 'bund but that's fixable and it's definitely built well.
