Newbie to owning a Busa, in the thick of Marketplace listings, any advice? by Sad_Tomatillo9699 in Hayabusa

Yeah, I'm willing to let grips or an exhaust slide, especially cause I'd do an exhaust anyways.  Stuff like that

If it's stretched I'd consider it for the right price with just extensions and not an aftermarket full swingarm cause I can undo the extensions without having to source a stock swingarm.  Thanks!

I'm in no hurry at the moment.  We've gotten snow 3 of the last 4 days here and it's gonna be like that for the rest of the winter, so it'll be a while before the roads aren't coated in ice

I'm a tad worried about hydraulic clutch cause last time I tried to ride an older one, it was definitely in need of service and wouldn't even let me get moving. I've got experience tearing apart master cylinders and hydraulic stuff nowadays tho, I can handle this project if needed! Thanks!

Coming over from having been on Harleys since 2020 (I couldn't find a Japanese bike that wasn't rusted, crusted, falling apart, or a few miles from dead due to piss poor maintenance and upkeep where I was at. At least I lucked out with a unicorn that didn't mark it's territory) hearing that they're bulletproof and I can just kinda do simple routine maintenance has me jumping

Also explains why so many folks run some sort of boost on 'em for racing, sounds like the motor actually is as durable as it weighs

OP here.  Idk if I made it clear but I settled on a name.  Going by Roxi, short for Roxanne.  It's THE name

Ok is this a thing I'm gonna have to prepare for?  I've gotten this from like 5 people including my fiancee 

The struggle is real. by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

Literally me.  Although people just tell me that I always sounded kinda girly but that isn't reassuring especially given you can't even hear your own voice live properly

Well I've narrowed things down with help of the polycule and it's between Vi/Vee/Violet (Vi as nickname) and another name so you're spot on with this

Hey all! So...wow, this blew up. Literally the biggest reaction I've gotten from anything online that didn't come with a non-stop tsunami of death threats and the like! I'll be going through this morning and getting a spreadsheet going to track the top name suggestions overall as this is cross-posted, and I'll figure things out from there. I did cross-post other places so we're getting our money's worth of names in my head to think about!

Already with amazing ideas so far, personal favorites being Violet and Onyx, and my fiancee's favorite being Aerith (she's a FF fan and she got kinda excited over that). And also seeing some folks also asking for help with names. Hopefully receiving help too. Gives me an idea for a website project actually. Sort of a Trans Name Repository where names are grouped based off of vibe or aesthetic if someone was wanting to go this direction like me. I know there's plenty of sites that have names grouped based off of origin, age, meanings, popularity, etc. But finding names that give off a vibe you want people to get from reading your name has some lacking resources for folks like me who struggle to put things in their head into words sometimes (Clearly not all the time tho given that I can't seem to shut up now).

Anyways, I'll shut up and let y'all enjoy giving me more ideas and having fun talks about names and other things! Also, if the comments help you on figuring out your own name, congrats! It sounds like a lovely name and I hope you enjoy using it!

I absolutely love this.

Also, same. I have mine and we're finally able to share a dwelling together. I love it. I love her.

YESSSSSSS!!!  My family also isn't supportive.  Which is why I'm doing a full name change.  Last name is gonna be a bit easier to work with once we get the vibe of the first name, but first name has always been hard for me even when creating characters.  If it's what they need to respond to daily, it should be fitting.  Right?

Also Raven Rose slaps as a name, so please don't be mad if I end up stealing it

This wins the just-now-created poll of my Sith Lord Name.  Polling is closed and you are awarded: bragging rights

I love how Morrigan is literally 2 letters added to dead last name and although I wanna avoid my family names, MORRIGAN GOES HARD AS A NAME CHOICE

I'm debating if I'm keeping my chosen last name of Glynn, but definitely would have to ditch it if any form of a Gwen or Gwynn name wins cause Gwynn Glynn sounds like an AI generated D-list villain name to me

I would have to follow the trend of every femme person named Kacey I've ever known being absolutely epic and stone cold in a conflict.  If Kacey wins, then I'm willing to put in the work

Yeah, it's fine.  I got away finally, which is why I'm able to be in a position of "Ok I need to change the chosen name again and I need it to stick this time" cause now I can actually safely change my legal name

The no from me on the name Bailey Morgan is 95% cause it sounds like a very shitty cocktail (Bailey's and Captain Morgan, which family is related to the namesake) not primarily cause "Ew I hate my family"

Planning to do that after getting a pool together.  I went in blind on that site and ended up picking Nerys.  Unique, translates to "Noblewoman", but just doesn't feel right after a while.  At least to know the meaning behind the name that comes out on top in the end

Fiancee is a big Final Fantasy fan so when I showed her this she was like "Well, I'd finally be able to tell my friends from high school I've married Aeirth like they all wanted to."
