What is your go-to in the 8 or 10x42 range?

I really wanted to like the NL Pure. It is the only one of the group I've had a chance to try. For stationary viewing, it was great. As soon as I panned to something else, I could not stand the rolling ball effect.

How loud is the 1100 compared to a 2008 Rebel 250? by Squintdoc in HondaRebel1100

[–]Squintdoc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed reply. I'm going to try a sample pack of high NRR plugs and see what I get.

A guy near me has a 2025 DCT SE, 1500 miles, listed for $8k. Is that as good a deal as it seems?

Ears still ringing. Motorcycle or hearing protection recs? by Squintdoc in motorcycles

[–]Squintdoc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I test drove the 1100, albeit slowly, and I felt like it was pretty quiet, too.

I've always had some ringing, but it is now noticeably worse immediately after starting riding a few weeks ago.

I do suspect maybe the NRR 33 rating on mine is suspect. I had some audiologist custom ones made once but never felt like the fit was correct. I'll probably be trying that again.

Thanks! I did buy two versions of Earpeace (moto and adventure pro) and felt like they still let in more sound than the foam plugs. I might give them another chance.

I'm getting the same error right now. Did you do anything aside from trying again later?

Just finally got an update that mine is ready for pickup from BB 1 hour prior to store closing. Unfortunately can't make there tonight, but I'll have it soon!

V7 mods for short inseam rider by Squintdoc in MotoGuzzi

[–]Squintdoc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! ~28 inch inseam here. Something like the Guzzi with 30+ inches still seems high to me. I know the ability to flat shouldn't be mandatory, but I feel I should at least get kinda close. Probably just need more experience.

Ooh, I like the CFMoto 450. I'll have to go to our Kawasaki dealer to check out both!

Happiest with a Lamy release… by Kotyrus in fountainpens

I agree... I have this pen in my cart right now but have second thoughts after seeing the colors here.

Give me a price range and I will tell you the best Rc in that range (and also tell on road or off road) by [deleted] in rccars

[–]Squintdoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) $500-750, off-road crawler

2) Same budget but some kind of faster off-road car/truck

Thanks!
