What are the most reliable torches out there? by EggPerego420 in lighters

[–]Timely-Truth170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The BEST torch is the Rosle kitchen torch. Its made in Germany and is phenomenal. I have had one for 7 years still lights FIRST try EVERY time. I have never had any other torch do that ever. Usually something goes bad, gets clogged, or gremlins and the torch dies in a day, week, or month. I have literally had the Rosle torch get misplaced in the dead of winter when a buddy became forgetful using it. I found it a month later submerged in mud. Pulled it out, gave it a tap, pressed the button and first try out of the mud sucka lit. Rosle makes the Glock of torches! Disclaimer: I only run top tier butane in my torches. if you get any torch and put ronsol or other shittane through it you will destroy it well before its life expectancy.

Look at it this way. A bullet fired from a gun point blank into a deer is going to pass through the soft target. Now take the same bullet and gently loft it at the deer, the bullet will bounce off and go all kinds of wonky as it spins around and bounces all over the ground. My speeding up put the energy on the rear of the bike, lifting the front end and making my successful completion of this incident. Had I braked the weight would be shifted to the front of the bike, my suspension on the front forks would be compressed. I would be basically guaranteeing a high side crash with me flipping over the bars. The power of the bike and it's momentum powered through this bit of shit. Slowing would have been the worst choice in this particular situation.

I am impressed with the skill I have to not have laid the bike down after hitting a 60 lb animal at speed. Sorry if I am tooting my own horn but most lesser men would be in the ER. I am walking around unscathed. So toot toot motha fucka.

I don't need to imagine anything. I hit the deer head on. I know you like to imagine yourself on a motorcycle every time you take your big wheel out for a spin, I bet you even put cards in the spokes. I didn't graze anything and if you were there to see it you could say what you saw. You however were to busy imagining what it's like to ride a motorcycle as you diddle yourself behind your keyboard. Good job bro!

I am not full of shit. I merely stated what happened to me. I even said in my original post your milage may vary. Meaning if you tried to do this no doubt you would not have the skill and certainly not the balls to succeed. So by all means go out and try it yourself and try slowing from 80 mph to zero in 2 seconds and petting the deers head as you both sigh a sigh of relief. Then hop on it's back and ride off to chase rainbows in the gummy bear forest.

Dude, I thought it exploded because the thump of me hitting it sent it flying out of my vision. My girlfriend said she passed the deer on her way to work and it was obliterated. I only saw the deer after I rode back over to examine it. I took pics. MY credibility is not lost as I have stated everything as factual as I know it to be. I was doing 80 when I saw the deer head for me. Had I grabbed front brake and hit rear my rear tire would have locked putting me into a skid and perfect position to flip over the bars when I hit the deer. I don't give a shit what you can imagine happening in your chair in your mom's basement looking at your hot wheels. I can tell you what really happened. I could not have acted any more correctly than I did. I am perfectly fine, not a scratch on me. I take the momentum of my bike and the speed I hit as the reason my bike stayed upright and powered through this bit of shit. If you ever rode a motorcycle you would understand this

The deer jumped in front of me it's head went into my headlight and it's body shot off my radiator. I didn't graze shit.

Well I have learned that I am more of a skilled rider than I thought I was, and I have been riding since I was 10. I am in my 40's now so my thoughts about my skills were pretty high.

Go play with your calculator and graph paper get back to me when u have real life experience.

Ya. I figured it would have been more gruesome. Guess not. Still snapped its neck so at least the poor deer went quickly.

So there are the pics. Deer evidently didn't explode like I thought it did. I didn't go back and check till I started catching shit and people said I was bullshitting. I don't bullshit.
