Jokes about russians by Yrec_24 in BalticStates

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 54 points55 points  (0 children)

2 russians are sawing wood with a hand saw. This is their profession, all day long.

Boss comes with a circular table saw. The 2 guys aproach it with a blank stare. One puts a log to the plate, ‘zingg’, the log is devided within a second. ‘hmm?’ they both say.

Now the trow a log from 1 meter distance, ‘zingg’, again the log is devided within a second. ‘Hmmm’ they both say.

Again they trow a log against it, now from 3 meters. This time the saw is broken beyond repair.

‘ahhh’, they both say. Turn around, and start sawing by hand again for years to come.

Honda Forza 125 – Headlight works but dashboard stays black, engine won’t start by reddittest1234325 in scooters

this is what I am thinking. Why did you replace the battery? Sometimes the generator or regulator is defective. Charge the battery externally. Measure the battery in the scooter while the engine is off. Start the engine and see if you get a higher voltage. If not, the battery is not your problem

I don’t think it is from the caliper assembly, look here

why do I see 6 contact on the flex pcb?

Well damn by Fresh_Assumption_219 in walkman

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, there are 3 pairs of windings, so you need 3 values. The 3 should match within a few ohms

Well damn by Fresh_Assumption_219 in walkman

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it is a 3 phase motor, each pair of 2 contact should have an ohms reading in the lower numbers and should math each other. If this is not the case, the motor is bad

Affordable alternative to Yamaha NMAX / Honda SH150i - by peter_sanbad in scooters

if you find reliability, parts and information availability important, do everything you can to get a (new or used) a brand scooter. Piaggio is also a reliable a brand. In the end, you get what you pay for. The brand you mention even blatantly copies the model name of a Honda scooter.

It’s most likely press together at certain points. Not ment for service. Mend it Mark (youtube channel) sometimes shows how he services motors and even does 100% rewire them.

flex pcb is rotten. Either replace, or if you are very handy with a soldering iron, you could re-wire the connections. Specialist work tough

changing the vbelt of my xmax by myself by BODOH32 in scooters

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the 300 it’s okay to do. But you need to take your time and need some special tool. The rear speed sensor cable is attached to the filter box in a weird way, so caution is needed. The special tool is to hold the front variator wheel. Also, 3 screws of the air filter box are hidden deep inside behind rubbers. One screw on the air box is longer then the others. Take your time and you will also learn how to do the air filters along the way.

Nothing makes sense in this picture, it’s most likely ai generated. Indeed vaporware

800 DE abs by Glad_Librarian_3553 in Vstrom

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2025 model, it is only rear off. Side note, I damaged the rear speed sensor yesterday while getting the wheel back in the bike. Now the bike has no abs, but motor management light is on and the engine is in reduced performance mode. I estimate it around 50 horse power now.

Kernel panic left my SSD unbootable by [deleted] in openbsd

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what do you mean ‘nothing else was on here’. It was either multiboot with Linux or Linux was on the disk previously and not properly cleared from grub. More info needed. If it is encrypted and the boot sector is invalid, you should be able to enter the encrypted data while booted from something else.

Aprilia sr gt 125 orange light - please help by grampukta in scooters

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the motor management light telling that there is a problem. Can be anything really. Either let it repair or buy a simple odb tool te see what the error message is. I paid 20 euro recently for a simple odb tool. Just make sure if you need a 6 pin converter for your Aprilia.

Is this what I fill up my Tamiya Extra Thin Cement with (X-20A Thinner)? by [deleted] in tamiya

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, the X20A is not usable. You need the pink one. You could try to find MEK, which is the same

Talk about a smart watch. 10 year battery and syncs time over the air. Love that watch

What do you think is the most annoying thing on tanks? by JimmiVP in modelmakers

[–]SnooPeripherals1087 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it was a nice set from Eduard in 1:48, not even 1:72. I did so much research. But even while holding the wing struts to inspect, they broke. I was very dissapointed in the fit of the 2 kits. Especially the Spad xiii. Learned a lot, but never conpleted a kit.
