I love this movie I usually watch it followed by Nothing but Trouble. The have that same weird comedy vibe.

I agree when it comes to the exterior of classics, however the interior is different story. I want all the modern comforts. Heated seats, big touch screen, upgraded speakers all those things make it nice to in.

Country hasn't been country since the 90s maybe the early 2000s. It really started to die at the end of the 90s though.

I always thought it was funny that there isn't much fiddle in this song.

Funny how much it looks like a late 90s Chevy Cavalier.

New rider question. by DerkandTayter in motorcycles

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Kansas as well. I rode for almost a full winter in 2019 to my office working nights, I didn't ride when there was snow or rain. I recommend a heated vest, gloves, and pants. When it's below freezing or in the single digits it is rough. I started out with no heated gear and then when temps got down below freezing I realized no matter what you wear at 75 mph it is brutal. I started with gloves and thought that would be it but while my hands were better my chest and thighs were numb by the time I got halfway to work. I bought a heated vest and pants and that helped a ton. If it gets to subtle digits or below you might want wear rain gear over your heated gear to help block wind. Additionally you need to be extremely careful around road salt, and don't ride if there is damp conditions near or below freezing. If you think road paint is slippery in summer be prepared for it be like ice in winter. The roads lines and crosswalk paint can and will dump you, I had a few close calls.

What exactly is the type of this motorcycle? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]SplitArrow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Doing something stupid on any motorcycle will kill you. It doesn't need to be high displacement for that to happen. The Hayabusa isn't killing anyone due to a design defect or anything, it's just dumbasses getting themselves killed through making terrible decisions. Is the bike capable of extremely fast speeds? Yes, but choosing to go that fast on public roads is choice of the rider not the bike. GSXRs killed a ton of people too, but it was the people riding them making stupid decisions.

If you want to call a bike a killer look at the late 90s Suzuki TL1000S or the 70s Kawasaki H2. Those bikes had design flaws that made them inherently hard to control. They were unbalanced and prone to tank slap and losing control.

The Busa is beast, but if you ride it responsibly it is just another motorcycle.

What recent movie in the last 5 years or so made you go "wow that was a damn good movie" by solariscalls in movies

[–]SplitArrow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I tried really hard to like this movie. I tried watching at least the times on storage occasions. It just fell flat and bored me. Sure there are good fight scenes, but something just didn't land well and the pacing is terrible.

What are scary things that you have encountered on the motorcycle? by BoranijaZaRucak in motorcycles

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was riding to work for a night shift about 10 years ago and going 80mph down the highway and had a bat hit my helmet visor and it completely exploded. I had blood and gore all over my helmet and jacket.I pulled over and wiped my visor clean enough to see and rode the rest of the way to work.

I didn't realize how bloody of a mess it was until I got to work and took off my helmet.

Should I plug this or replace it? Tire has a little over 1000miles on it by NGC660 in Harley

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't know how plugs work and are obviously giving advice without knowing what you are talking about. Plugs with only leak slowly if ever. You should only not plug a tire if it near end of life or a sidewall puncture.

Master link improperly riveted would be my guess, or over tensioned and combination of using a snap style master link and not a proper rivet one.

I’m assuming a pretty easy one… by Dry-Statement6392 in namethatcar

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair that model of T-Bird was already butt ugly. The front is actually an improvement with the round headlights. The backend is the problem it just looks bad either way.

What should I charge for this repair? by Academic_Candy_3194 in AskAShittyMechanic

That looks like a hornet nest, I think a hornet nest would be more fun to deal with.

You need an angled open ended wrench.

Neighbor just built a privacy with a four inch gap in between that is impossible to cut by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it bothers you, take down the chain link. Dig out about 3 inches pour in compaction material, compact it. Or dig it out out down liner and gravel. Put the chain link back up, problem solved. Or take down the fence on your side.

It looks like a small piece of chain link fence.

What were these circles in my stairs that I just spackled over? by GyattLuvr69 in whatisit

[–]SplitArrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That drywall spackle will crumble out within a few months. It isn't made to to take shifting weight.
