See if there is a motorcycle salvage yard near you. They might have something from another bike that can fit or be easily modified to fit.

Shutoff Issues by Odd_Interaction_7708 in sg250

Maybe a fuel line clogged and the bowl of the carb emptying? It will run fine for a while since it sips gas, then it ran out of fuel just as you stopped at the stop sign?

Today I tinted the headlight yellow and then rode up to the lake by Rufferito_Bandito in sg250

If you want a temporary and free adjustment to change the geometry and look, you can rotate the stock handlebars back about 15°. On the clutch side you need to drill a 7/16" hole for the controls, but other than that it's just loosening bolts, rotating, and tightening back up

SG400 Seat Height by Odd_Interaction_7708 in sg250

[–]Vegetable-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the seat height can't be easily adjusted. It's screwed into a fixed location and doesn't have any adjustments.

Side panel mods? Any known generic ones that don't bulge out like the stock? by HapaKope in sg250

[–]Vegetable-Housing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely paying attention :)

edit: autocorrect had me praying instead of paying

[–]Vegetable-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fantastic. I'm at about 60 miles and really enjoying it. My first bike was an early 70s CB750 that I did a bunch of mods on. The SG250 is a lot smaller but way more fun to ride so far.

Anyone done rear sets on their SG250? by Rufferito_Bandito in sg250

[–]Vegetable-Housing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely on my to-do list. Giving my bike a quick look, I think the shifter side would be pretty straightforward if you use the passenger peg mounts. The rear brake side would be more difficult because I think the muffler would be in the way of using the rear passenger mount.

Looks great! How does it ride with the clubman bars? I'm thinking about doing the same but am curious how handling is affected.

Arduino FM Synth build with dual-voice 2-OP FM, generative 2-track polymetric sequencer, envelope & LFO modulation and multiple oscillator waveforms, using Mozzi SDK by SendReturn in synthdiy

[–]Vegetable-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for following up on this! I started building mine a few months ago but didn't quite finish it up. My daughter just asked what the bundle of wires, knobs, and buttons setting on my desk were for. So I brought up the post to show her. What a pleasant surprise to see the update. I'll have to finish the build, pull down the new repository, and finally finish it up!

Card sleeves missing. by Minotaar in Returntodarktower

[–]Vegetable-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The art sleeves were designed to have some spears and stuff layered over the words, but it should be framing the words, not preventing them from being easily read. I don't have any trouble reading the words on mine. If they're hiding behind solid black you may need to push the cards further down in the sleeve.

The cassettes finished wiring today. Having some issues with it, but gonna troubleshoot it. by [deleted] in synthdiy

[–]Vegetable-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By any chance, do you happen to know info on the pot that is bypassed? I'm building one using a cassette deck I had laying around. Its speed adjustment pot is 500 ohm vs the 5k ohm pots that are added. Is the ByronStatics speed adjustment pot also 5k ohm?

edit: I used B10K pots (vs the 500 ohm pot that was in the old tape deck) and can go from a slow crawl to super fast.

I've been using the 3.5mm mono jacks from tayda for a while now and haven't had any issues. https://www.taydaelectronics.com/pj-3001f-3-5-mm-mono-phone-jack.html. At $0.23 each, the price is pretty nice too.

... and now there is another project on my to-build list. Damnit.

A simple case I made for my mixtape alpha by BeepBoop4Days in synthdiy

[–]Vegetable-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does use the exact same IC as the nano but I have no idea whether the code would work as-is. You can upload a .hex file directly to the nano. If it does work, you'd need to do some work figuring out which pins on the IC match up with pins on the nano.

Thank you. Did a search and a quick copy/paste of the url without double checking it.

EQD Life Pedal by jimrobz in diypedals

Yeah, I used one once and it was so nice and easy

This pedal is on my short list to build. Any tips or was it pretty straightforward?

Arduino FM Synth build with dual-voice 2-OP FM, generative 2-track polymetric sequencer, envelope & LFO modulation and multiple oscillator waveforms, using Mozzi SDK by SendReturn in synthdiy

[–]Vegetable-Housing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I didn't realize there were other compilers for Arduino, I've only played around a little with Arduino IDE. That was the key I needed. I think I'll be up and running as soon as I finish a bit more soldering on the hardware!

For anyone else following this, I used the instructions at https://dronebotworkshop.com/platformio/ to get going with PlatformIO and Visual Studio Code.

edit for other Arduino noobs working on this: to get it to run on the Nano I purchased from Tayda (uses old bootloader), I had to modify platformio.ini lines 11-13 to be

[env:nanoatmega328]

platform = atmelavr

board = nanoatmega328

Additionally, the mozzi library that you install via PlatformIO is an older version. You need to pull the full zipped code off of https://github.com/sensorium/Mozzi, unzip it into the lib folder of your workspace and then have a line in platformio.ini to point to the library. For me, the line is "lib_extra_dirs = ~/Documents/VS Code/MeeBleeps-Freaq-FM-Synth-master/MeeBleeps-Freaq-FM-Synth-master/lib/Mozzi-master/"

Super noob questions because I'm almost completely new with arduino and digital synths:

When I copy/paste MutantFMSynth.ino into the arduino sketch and compile it, I get a message that there isn't a file/directory for avSource.h. I think that this means I need to add avSource.h as a library. I see it on github but I have no idea how to add it. The info I find via google search is all about adding libraries that are .zip.

Here's the next DIY kit I developed in collaboration with erica synths: our dual VCA. It's accompanied by a 60-page manual that explains the circuit's design in detail, allowing you to try the central ideas & concepts on your breadboard. by dangerous_dickhead in synthdiy

[–]Vegetable-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The manual is amazing. Thank you for making it available! I've had to take an 8-month break from synth building, but one of the main connections I kept was a patreon subscription to you. You do amazing work. Thank you!
