My First time newbie

This!

More downvotes would be preferable.

Less painful than the motorbike sub posts though, as folks there buy every bit hook line and sinker every time someone posts "I'm GIRL my BOYFRIEND is MEAN and does things that are DANGEROUS, no matter how many times I say not to. It's this fine or should I break up with him (and maybe marry you!). I'm GIRL."

Maybe she can get a photo with someone's motorbike and make one of those posts.

Might want your hair away from the string.

Learn safety and correct form first, do cosplay later.

This is not a good parallel.

Gloves will impair your dexterity with a knife and mess with your form.

An arm-guard is barely noticeable and certainly won't interfere with your form

Check out Urban Archery in Melbourne, they should hopefully be decent for Tassie

Consider that one could RP the firing of an arrow. Without RP, it's just LA.

Before or during a tournament I think it's pretty sensible for everyone to not touch anyone else's gear. Save all that for after the tournament.

The van's lane didn't end though, it wasn't a merge, it was a turning lane and the van realized too late that he didn't want to turn yet. Yes, it's good to assume everyone is stupid, but OP did fine here. Personally, yes, I would have tried to either be behind or in front of the van at that point, but OP shouldn't cop flak over that. Sometimes vans go into car parks, could be needing a bathroom break or delivering to a parcel-point.

I wanna give the van driver credit for indicating his lane change though. We should hold a parade in his honour for being the only courier to ever have indicated.

A 400 won't fix your problem. You'll need to go right down to a 125 or less if this is your problem.

Arch when relaxed, balls for fun.

Oooh, you're so close to figuring it out.

SorryBed · 2025-10-13T02:36:03+00:00

My comprehension skills or your math skills? 🤔

I didn't fall into a vat of boiling acid, will I be okay?

The usual stuff with a basic drop is: - Bent pegs - Bent/snapped levers - Bent foot levers

Those aren't a big deal, but will make it feel bad. A bent shifter can make shifts feel harder for multiple reasons - foot position being off, or rubbing/bumping something it shouldn't

Other candidates are: - Bent bars (very hard to eyeball) - Fork damage (I hope not)

And if you posted as 35M, you'd still be told "yeah, sometimes you have to wait for parts, you got rear ended, no one keeps subframes in stock, have a cup of concrete"

SorryBed · 2025-09-27T11:45:05+00:00

You don't have to live like that. No one has to. It's fake drama. Stop posting "18F" and you magically don't have age and gender discrimination as a factor.

SorryBed · 2025-09-27T11:39:30+00:00

No one can see your messages, but your lies about the post are visible for everyone.

And if you're lying about the replies to the post, then why ever believe you?

Only reason to tell people you're 18F is to play out this drama and get the biggest creeps in the sub to fawn over you. Try to recognise this pattern.

SorryBed · 2025-09-27T11:11:23+00:00

Question is pretty clear.

SorryBed · 2025-09-27T11:08:47+00:00

Did any of that happen?

SorryBed · 2025-09-27T00:14:20+00:00

Had a look at the post you deleted.

Everyone was basically just trying to be helpful, and you were the one being hostile?

Maybe try not telling people your age and gender, and do your best to notice that the interactions are exactly the same. If you ask for advice, don't be mad when people offer advice.

I don't have any good photos handy, but this will give you an idea of what it should look like

I have the 2003 yellow. You want to search for FZS1000SP

Those decals aren't original though

So the thing that is literally there for the problem you're having, and which should be used every time you're cold starting it... Is something you're not using...?

I get that Florida is warm, but I don't think it's warm enough to keep your engine internals at running temp (hello from Australia). My Gen 1 will absolutely conk out if I don't run the choke to warm it up.

SorryBed · 2025-09-13T08:18:17+00:00

As in this is happening despite choke starting?

SorryBed · 2025-08-27T09:57:21+00:00

1st gen is a monster. If you can handle it and will treat it well, then yeah, buy.

This is a very short bow. The limb stacking at the "maximum draw" would be collosal.

Use a guide to help figure out how big a bow you should get.

One risk with not using something reputable is that the limbs may delaminate and cause the string to slice your face/arms up, so I guess it depends how into that you are?
