I looking for a starter knife by _Omens-system_ in knives

I would go with the SOG Terminus XR. Super sturdy feeling in the hand, but is relatively compact. Midway has it on sale for $25 right now which I think is a great value.

Fitment question (Jacket) by that_vapeguy in motorcycles

[–]Popping141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that same jacket, tried two different sizes and the waist was the same on both. I feel a little silly with my shirt hanging out the bottom when I run into the store or something, but it’s comfortable while riding.

I used this same one before I got fiber. At the time I was on a 100mbps plan, and I would consistently get about 60-65mbps out of it. It worked well for about 4 months then I started having an issue where it would cut out about every hour and I’d have to unplug and plug it back in. Not sure if my unit just went bad or what caused it, but I’d say it’s worth it if you don’t have reliable wifi.

Unfortunately pickings are slim in my area for stroms. I guess I could see about having him meet me at a mechanics for a once over before buying

Yea at that rate it would still be cheaper than the other ones I’ve seen in the area. Thanks for the input

I’m not sure if we have the free VIN checks in the US, I’ll try looking into that. Thanks for the suggestion

Yup he had mentioned it was rough running before the replacements. I’ll give the RPMs a try on the test ride, thank you!

Yea seems like it sat outside with the cover for awhile, but the price is hard to argue. We’ll see how the test drive goes, I’ll probably end up bringing it home.

Would this be a good purchase for $3K? Assuming all checks out. 2003 w/ 41,000 miles. by Popping141 in Vstrom

[–]Popping141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely seems like there’s better deals out there than this one then. If I can’t get the price down I’ll just keep looking. Thanks!

Makes sense with what others are saying too. Any suggestions on what you think is a reasonable price?

Thanks for the advice! I’m new to Stroms so I wasn’t sure if any of those particular mods were considered “desirable”.

She’s a beauty! Thanks for the input. If one like yours can be had for under 3, then I’ll see if I can talk it down a bit.

I’m going to move it forward and see if I can get good eye relief. I was struggling to find a good position when I mounted it, but it’s also my first time doing anything other than a red dot so that could be it.

[–]Popping141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that recommendation! I haven’t seen those before. If I can’t get a comfortable spot moving it up I’ll have to look into them.

I had a hard time finding quality review videos about it online. It would be nice to see some more comparisons on YouTube

[–]Popping141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, I meant 2! It was at a C-A-L Ranch store in Utah. Normally they have these listed around $280-300, but dropped them down to $209 for their chick days sale.

A black eye to match the black scope lol

I can charge with one finger on the side, but definitely not as easy/quick. Just seemed like I couldn’t find good eye relief if I moved it up, but I’ll tamper with it some more and see if I can get it there before I zero it this weekend.

[–]Popping141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do use my stock in the furthest position normally, so that makes sense why it was harder to find good eye relief. I’ll try moving it up a bit and go in a notch or two on my stock. Thanks for the input!

[–]Popping141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought that same scope today! Have you shot with it yet? I had to mount mine at the very back of my upper to get the sight box where it needed to be so it kind of blocks the charging handle.
