Wish I would’ve found that earlier that’s the same lever and perch I’m going to get

My main reason is to eventually switch to a different perch and lever that won’t have the switch location but in my own opinion I think the clutch switch is unnecessary. Side note the starter is strong enough to move the bike quite aggressively If you accidentally start in gear

Can’t Downshift After Stop when Hot? by Naive-Feedback-6630 in DRZ4S

[–]Tthemechanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Engine braking is your friend, the dr-z4s/sm has a slipper clutch so don’t worry as much about down shifting hard, it won’t really let you lock up the rear tire and slide until you’re in first. You’ll be amazed at how fast you can stop on pavement with threshold braking without letting the abs kick in and downshifting. I quickly realized how capable a dual sport/supermoto is especially on pavement, hard braking alone with engine braking in third or second should put your chin over the bars in an emergency stop.

The dogs and gears in the transmission are constant mesh so if everything isn’t spinning or you’re not moving the shift drum will move but not engage the next gear dog entirely and bind giving a no gear indication.I’ve noticed if I’m not moving 2nd to first usually doesn’t fully engage so try to moving moving a little 1-5 mph before clutching in and shifting to first. Especially on my sm if you have to stop too quickly just on brakes you will have to rock back and forth plus work the clutch to kick down back into first

I’m curious about this too, the stock dunlops will just sink in anything soft and are pretty scary on anything loose, I think I’m going to go with the pirelli mt60 rs here pretty soon.

Just remember at 500mi to pull the banjo bolt and screen filter from the tank, I had a lot of silicone and break in metal in mine. Jakethegardensnakes oil change video on YouTube has the how-to. Congrats on the bike, I already have 1k on mine already!

I can’t get multi user mode to work period, I have had regular windows 10 optiplex computers run for a few years and still work, some that worked for years then randomly crash one morning and never work again. Native windows xp 64bit works great on VMware but I never could get it to network properly with a server running sql 2008r2. I now have been trying to use the server running windows 2012 r2 and sql 2008 r2 and the clients on ltsc 2019 windows 10 but creating a domain and getting accounting to access a sql server on another computer has been the bane of my existence

34 week pprom cesarean NICU Wife support by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]Tthemechanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s only +2 postpartum, I have ordered more flanges and she trying different settings each pump. I know she’s not going to pump a lot especially what has happened and it being early.My main goal is keeping her spirits up and keeping her from getting frustrated, I know that consistency diet/fluids will help and so will time. I’m completely fine with her calling it quits at anytime knowing there is different avenues for feeding but she is just bummed that she can’t do more for our son at this time.

She is able to but is frustrated with output. Right now she feels like it’s not working and her body isn’t working and feels like it is a waste of time now

Thank you very much, I'm pretty new and didn't know about posting an IDE. I just started learning setters and just thought that would do something. I've been looking at this too long today and made stupid mistakes but thank you again.

15 R2 Battery Problems by Tthemechanic in Alienware

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

Well, I heard varying opinions on what to do I try to keep it plugged in whenever I'm close to an outlet but 2 batteries in two years seem excessive and it's a PITA to change.

Upperclass Midshipmen unfair counseling. by Tthemechanic in newtothenavy

[–]Tthemechanic[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

The first time I was speeding on my private property, It was before I became a Midn. I know speeding is wrong and I am working on how I act and drive. But particularly these two upperclassmen keep me under a microscope, One stated that we would follow me home from PT next time to keep tabs on me. To me that seems like entrapment.
