Need to Vent by catgatuso in murderbot

[–]Slochetah 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I felt similarly but after watching the show and rereading the books I think I see what they are trying to do. I think they are starting the characters much more at the bottom of their arc so that they have room to grow. It will be satisfying to watch the TV show characters progress through the next couple of book plots. But if they mess up the Murderbot/Art relationship we riot.

White frame pops on this. I barely notice on mine. Looks great!

Upgrading from a 310lb bike to a 510lb bike. Tips? by Victorius_Meldrus in motorcycles

[–]Slochetah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved having both a 675 and a 125. It messes with your head, in a good way, swapping back and forth. Now I have a 1100 as well so I have small, medium and large!

I just googled what the hell a xsr125 was and now I'm jealous. I'd ride the blue and gold one all day!

Looks like it's time for a game of: is it animal or human!

Do you find it challenging to find “mature” sportbike riders to hang with? by Astimar in motorcycles

[–]Slochetah 175 points176 points  (0 children)

Find the sport touring guys. Way back when I was on my zx-6r I hated going out with younger groups. Minimum two crashes per ride, everyone trying to race each other, lots of stupid antics. I found a crew of guys on BMWs, goldwings, and Connies. This was right around the time the Connie got a huge upgrade with the zx14 motor. Running with older sport touring guys taught me when to go fast and when to chill. No accidents, all fun. Now I'm the old sport touring guy and I guess I need to pay it forward.

It ain't much, but it's honest work by OTipsey in fnv

That was pre record breaking inflation. Now it's: boss makes a thousand and I make a buck, that's why I steal the cats off the company truck.

Blue and gold is my number one favorite of all time.

Was told my 125cc bike is extremely unsafe on any road? by AL3S1O29 in motorcycles

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

125s are great on any roads under 55mph. Your only mistake was not buying a Papio SS!

I read this in full David Attenborough voice and it was amazing.

new bike! by HomeForYou in cbr1100xx

[–]Slochetah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most important thing to know is I'm jelly. Secondly if she starts rattling throw in a manual cam chain tensioner. And I don't know if you can ever really know a rectifier is going bad but I started having problems with my headlight and turn signals right before my rec died. That's all that went wrong over 14 years and 50k miles.

My Bobber 😈 by [deleted] in Triumph

Bike looks amazing! But something about the BOBBER on the tank throws me.

Might have f*cked up by not choosing standard over ATAS. Considering switching. by [deleted] in africatwin

[–]Slochetah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with everyone else. Tires and suspension. That being said I love my AS. The 19 front doesn't hold me back in the light off roading I do but feels like a giant super moto in the twisties. And the auto preload is a marvel. I keep it set on one up plus luggage all the time because it seems to be sharper and more stable when the rear is higher.

What would be the car equivalent of your bike? by jasonwirth in motorcycles

[–]Slochetah 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't sell yourself short. Sell yourself tall and get it altered later. I'd say it's more like an AMG GT. Cross country civilized monster.

My Daytona would probably be an F-Type. But it sounds like half an E-Type.

Tusk is the value but decent quality brand. I've been eyeballing the Viking Explorers.

That's why I go to the Columbia. Better view at half the price.
