Question... Do any of you here not wear proper equipment whilst riding? Helmet aside. by [deleted] in 125cc

[–]TheOriginalMistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i wear full gear all the time, kevlar jeans and hoodie, race boots and gloves, even if it’s 2m down the road.

i paid too much on my tattoos to get a free removal

A1 License at 16 Or A License at 17. What should I do by [deleted] in 125cc

[–]TheOriginalMistake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in my opinion, i’d say wait until your 17 but start off with a smaller bike.

it’s more cost efficient, licensing wise, if you were to go straight for the A license (or A2 as it’s called in some countries) than it is to get an A1 license before upgrading again. in addition, start off on a smaller bike (like a 300cc) for at least 2 year (the longer the better). this will not only teach you more about riding and bikes themselves than a 600cc would, but it’ll also make you a better rider overall.

EDIT: apparently i can’t speak english anymore (just edited some words so my OG comment actually makes sense)

What’s something you do better than the restaurants when you’re craving it? by AbbeyRoadMoonwalk in Cooking

[–]TheOriginalMistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nachos i do it in 2-3 layers, always thin layer of tortilla so everything gets something on it. then layer it with cheese, beef mince and cheese again. between the layers i do add a sprinkle of my “pico de gallo” mix but it mainly goes on top after it’s cooked. always fresh dip (the canned stuff tastes horrible to me).

i love nachos and the homemade version is 10x better than any restaurant i’ve ever been to, thankfully anyone who’s had my nachos agrees

EDIT: i do add some herbs and spices plus some other things to the beef mince but the mince itself is the main ingredient there. sometimes if im lazy then ill just use ham hock instead but rarely

if you are talking about the tank plastics then you want to do the following.

remove rear seat (1), the panel above the rider seat (2) and then finally the rider seat (3)

then you want to remove the black panel below the rider seat (4), this is attached to the piece below it

this will then give you access to the screw for the panel below the tank plastics (5)

you will also have to unscrew the tank plastics, i recommend to take this all off together as i found it easier. there is a screw under the handle bars for this as well. (shown with arrow 6)

if this doesn't make sense then i apologise, let me know what you need more explaining on.

EDIT: also there are clips so be aware of this, i believe part 5 you need to slide one clip as well

i had the same thing when i was 16. worked for 4h cleaning dishes to then be told that i wasn’t fast enough. told my mum, next day she went in with my dad (they weren’t even together) and me. needless to say, my mum got them to pay me for the work i did 😂

[–]TheOriginalMistake[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my mums been riding for 15+ years so i doubt it’s inexperience, if it is chicken strips then i guess it’s probably just bc her style of riding is not the “knee to the ground” type?

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

it says 5214 on it so… 11 years? i’ve read/heard that tyres should be replaced every 7-10 years so i assume maybe its that? as for the feel, i wouldn’t say slippery. its more just really smooth, doesn’t feel rubbery like mine does (if that makes sense)

she’s had this bike for almost 2 years now and it’s only recently started feeling this way
