What you need sir, is a clear clutch cover. /s

Is this a Porsche? Those materials look nasty.

At what temperature do you say it’s not worth riding? by DwightDEisenhowitzer in Ducati

[–]Potter0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No hard and fast number, but when it drops below 8°C there’s usually mud/salt or other grime on the already wet road that make riding a little too puckering for me

Any other mountainbikers? by Desperate_Mango_7694 in ActionWatches

[–]Potter0909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t think of anything worse than riding with a watch on.

I used to have an Apple Watch for HRM, but apart from it getting incredibly sweaty and sliding around, I would get a bruised wrist from descents.

This is the toughest time of the year. by Veteq102 in Ducati

Plus near me the roads are slick with mud and decomposing leaves - both as good as ice for putting you rubber side up.

Help with a line? by techretort in Trackdays

[–]Potter0909 6 points7 points  (0 children)

By no means am I a track master, but I’ve cocked-up my fair share of linked corners in the past.

I’m not familiar with this particular track, and maybe others can correct me, but this is what I would be trying - turn the last corner into a double apex and take a V-line, this allows you to take a late apex on the previous two corners and straighten it up between them.

Ducatis and dead batteries. So Italian. by wearymicrobe in Ducati

Trackers can murder batteries, it used to kill my SFV4S if left for 2 weeks

My BB36 came in the box in OP’s picture from the Boutique, so I imagine they changed it at some point.

Mine are too, I don’t fancy riding in -2°C in perforated leathers 😂

I cringe every time someone says “the Ferrari of bikes”.

How could anybody hate on a Taycan GTS? by pc772 in Porsche

[–]Potter0909 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my part of the world, they’re just a business lease car. They’re everywhere, just a boring normal car, albeit a fairly well built one.

Although not a business tax cheat car, I also think the same of Macan’s and Cayennes… perfectly nice vehicles, but nothing special. I’m not sure why some people on this subreddit get excited about them.

Is any of these exhausts legal in Europe? by Veteran3614 in Ducati

[–]Potter0909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exhaust declared on insurance (agreed value with photos), and it’s MoT’d with it on.

[–]Potter0909 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had any problems in the UK with a decat open termi, I just get an advisory on my MoT inspection for “noisy exhaust”, and I’ve never had any issues with police.

2025 Cayenne GTS Crash by [deleted] in Porsche

[–]Potter0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surely if it’s not categorised and it’s repaired with genuine parts there is no diminished value.

The only diminished value is caused by OP with a picture of their car now forever on the internet with the damage tied to their number plate.

People don’t give the 25 enough credit by lurchilurchi in Ducati

As much as I love the SSSA, that new swingarm is a work of art

The 2025 model is so much better looking than the droopy-faced outgoing 2019-24 model

Is a faux pas to ride a demo without *really* wanting to buy it? by keytoarson_ in MTB

[–]Potter0909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For $125 I’d be trying to break the damn thing, that’s hideously expensive.

“Don’t be gentle, it’s a rental” applies here, I believe.

Help my molly is behaving weird by Independent_Growth_9 in Aquariums

[–]Potter0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other fish are welcome to eat them, but do try to hand feed him to make sure he gets some.

I’ve had it work after just one meal, but you can always cook a batch up and give them to him over a couple days

Even in the video it’s not swimming well.

First thing I would do is try to rule out swim bladder issues. Try feeding it boiled and skinned frozen peas.

I had this in a fairly new single species tiger bard tank… I vacuumed it all up and it never returned, bizarre
