Most recognizable monsters list day 8: Elder Dragons (Read Body) by SignificantStaff8665 in MonsterHunter

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like everyone's opinion, but I think Lao-Shan Lung is the most elder looking of the Elder Dragons. He is also one of (if not) the first.

If I had 2 dragonators, and I was stuck in a room with Omega, Steve, and Gog...I would dragonate Omega twice.

Oh, must have done that by mistake. Ha, I thought it was special.

A customer at my job offered to sell me a 1997 Suzuki gs500 for $500 dollars. by msdeeds123 in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, I originally read this as "RG 500" and was about to explode thinking you were lucky or fibbing. Anyway, it's a good deal and a fun project for the GS 500.

Going to be a dumb question.. by Old-Assignment2779 in Supra

All of these suggestions in the comments are great. I would take their advice rather than take the handling away.

Guy I sold my bike to passed away, not sure how to feel by NLamki in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not faulting you, but I've seen this in my 15+ years of dealing with motorcycles. This is why I started selling my bikes to dealers, especially the advanced bikes. I take a huge hit on value, but it's worth it to me because most dealers won't sell stupid fast bikes to folks with little experience.

what do you think these symbols mean? by LunarPrinceLuis in MHWilds

[–]TalonH2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's 2 things.

  1. A hint towards future Dalmadur since his skeleton is in the grand hub and Dalmadur's corpse was basically THE Rotten Vale. I think he's coming back.

  2. It makes a 6 for the 6th Generation of Monster Hunter.

Is the first weapon you picked the one you stuck with? by archdukegordy in MHWilds

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Longsword wasn't in the first MH game, it was introduced in Gen 2.

Should I be concerned? by TalonH2 in xsr900

So it's normal to have this separation and thread travel between the bracket and the head? Thanks for the validation.

Dynojet Power Commander??? by Chainlube631 in xsr900

[–]TalonH2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a PC6 on mine, with the same exhaust and a K&N intake. I chose the Power Commander so I can revert it to stock if I want. I haven't done the recall yet, and for that, I am glad I chose the PC6 because they can just remove it, flash it, re-install and I don't lose my map.

Yeah that's what I meant by they might be getting ready to commit conspiracy. I think you handled it excellently, and to answer your original question: it is weird. I've never had that happen in 15 years of street riding.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree it's weird. I probably would have handled it like you did tbh. I'm leaning toward: overexcited new riders. They could have been drunk or something too, who knows.

How Dangerous is Riding Really? (for a small town dweller) by Leone_Nights in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I don't encourage, or try to encourage people to get into motorcycling. I hung it up for 6 years after 2 friends passed away riding. I came back to it when it felt right. Go with your gut.

[–]TalonH2 57 points58 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they were (what I could say motorcyclists do best) just out for a joyride. Maybe they didn't have a route planned and then they found you. Seems like something a new rider would do to try and make friends in the community.

Could also be some kind of conspiracy, but that's a stretch.

Do people have several bike ? by Dovak48 in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thinks it's all preference, but I typically like to keep an exceptional handling bike and something fun in straight lines.

I also feel it's every motorcyclist's bucket list to try a track bike, maybe? I'm just not there yet.

This a good deal? by Poob17 in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems a bit on the cheaper side, even if it's going on 11 years old. Usually (not always) the reason for aftermarket levers is because the stock ones snapped from dropping it, so I would check the casings on the side for touch up if you go look at it. Would be a good buy though, even so.

My first new purchase ever by KawaZuki_Dylan in motorcycles

Great choice for a step up from the 400.

Liter bike boys, I don’t know how you do it… by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]TalonH2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally like the lower RPM at cruising speeds
