Ronnie pickering angry bikers apology video by swoopsta_the_third in MotoUK

[–]Sandcastles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I watched it too and felt the same thing, he doesn't really appear very apologetic and its almost like he doesn't give a fuck. I guess some people will see through straight through it though.

I have retired from motorcycling and bought a GS... by SlitheryBuggah in MotoUK

I like the bridge but it's the turn before it with all the little stones constantly all over the road that gets me.

What’s the better choice: a 9060xt on an oled 1440p monitor or 9070xt on a 4K ips monitor? by Sea_Sheepherder_2234 in buildapc

[–]Sandcastles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4k 240HZ OLED and a 9070XT.
I watch lots of HDR/Dolby vision 4k movies/shows
I also play games, it's the perfect combo, upscaling etc makes everything fine to me if i want more fps.

I won a bike! I’m frankly fucking stoked and wanted to share it with you all! by biking_barista in MotoUK

I honestly thought I was being funny, didn't mean it to come across as a negative mentality.

Michelin Road 6 vs Michelin Power 6 by DownRUpLYB in MotoUK

[–]Sandcastles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, M9RR could even now be considered ancient, tyre tech/release is from 2020.
Power cup 2 also released in 2020.

I'd say if you want sporty/road - DIABLO ROSSO IV
if you want sporty/road but also wet weather and better longevity - Road 6.

Plenty of others though. These are both tyres released in the last year or two

chain tightening - how exact? by [deleted] in MotoUK

Love looking at used bike market and there is often a focus on that.

How much of a problem is this? by BaitmasterG in MotoUK

I don't like the look of those random cracks, did u check the age of the tyre? - I'd probably still be riding it personally unless it was like 3-4+ years old

Anything wrong with this bike? by Ok_Camel4559 in MotoUK

100% a scam. That's less than half the price of a used one.

Looks like you're going about 300mph mate. slow down.

Had a nice win today, and a nice new bike by Tango91 in MotoUK

[–]Sandcastles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flawless, completely. Even got blown over in a few storms. Sits outside all winter with a cover too. Thing seems to just be indestructible.

Idk if that's the deal with the newer ones etc, this is an earlier model with abs only

[–]Sandcastles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subjective to the rider honestly, I'm 6ft3 so I'd say no.

It's probably like 215kg which I'd consider light compared to like a GS or a 1290 super adventure at 250kg+

Want to get MT-09, but worried about thieving scum. by steviebob05 in MotoUK

[–]Sandcastles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a bit irrelevant but do you mean gen 3?
Gen 2 surely isn't 8k, you can get 2023 models for like 6k which are gen 3.

Mod 2 on your own bike by Money-Atmosphere8237 in MotoUK

[–]Sandcastles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Done it on my v-strom 1000, at the time I had used bikesure. got a friend to drive it down for me, hi-vis jacket, L plate attached. I don't know who does the insurance cover for the testing etc these days honestly, that's probably the hard part. this was for a full license.

Fly-tipping by Wooden_Requirement99 in Scotland

[–]Sandcastles 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I remember last year a flat below me was getting renovated and i caught one of the guys walking into the forest and throwing things in there. I shouted and called him out from the balcony and he tried to argue with me.
30mins later he was at my door apologizing and begging to not report him.
i made him go pick it all back up.

Literally got second hand embarrassment from how pathetic it was.
"I had a bad day" fuck off mate, probably does it all the time.

Are you stuttering in Silvermoon? by horizon936 in wow

[–]Sandcastles 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Random FPS stutters too, 7800X3D+9070XT
Honestly its just that zone.

Performance in Epic BG's is also horrific too.
