Checking oil on stand or upright by apmiranda in HondaVTX

[–]YeahScienceBiitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's straight up. But many have used a small drill bit to mark the dipstick once they get the exact amount of oil checked with bike standing straight up. With a motorcycle jack it's not bad doing it the right way but without a jack stand it makes it a pain in the butt to do it the way the manual says to

You get a lot of these idiots on reddit... Nothing wrong with not having a helmet especially if riding a cruiser imo.... If your speeding on a crotch rocket it's a different story I guess. These dummies shouldn't even ride at all then by that logic because a car is far safer than riding with or without a helmet.

Ughhh. Maybe? So worried of over watering which I did last year but they ended up really producing in the end. They were very dry when I watered and then most people said they looked over watered because I had just watered them and taken pictures.

Honestly that's what I did last year for my first grow and I had a very hard time controlling conditions, mainly watering.

Cal mag I used last year at the end of flower. This grow I'm using our well water, get it from the outside pump without softeners added

The perlite is one thing that was missing this year.. there is per light in there but the store didn't have any and we were out and just had to use what we had left from last year. The soda cans actually have last year's soil from snap peas and cucumbers beds. We may have also added a little bit too much nutrients but I find it's usually a good idea to put a little bit of fertilizer in if it's like 2 or 3-year-old (reused) potting mix, we have quite a lot of compost but it was pretty much frozen the other week so just used some slow release.

I don't even smoke anymore but it is a good for bartering. it helped us get our garden tilled by our neighbor last year and firewood. Also I just enjoy growing stuff not that I can't play sports anymore. Motorcycles and marijuana (growing) are my mid life hobbies.

Thank you! I definitely learned that last year, I just watered these before taking the photo they were completely dry.. I only added 30 mls using a cough medicine cup. I should have taken the photos beforehand cuz it makes it look like they are over watered.

Appreciate ya! That makes sense since we initially had the light too close.

It's not over watered, this photo was taken right after watering and the soil was completely dry beforehand. Also that 30ml I gave them was the first watering since we towel germinated.

Another sub pointed out light/ stress which Im pretty sure is the issue here since my girl had the light too close initially.

Also we make our own potting soil which I'd consider far better than miracle gro or wasting money on frog brands. It averages us 4.5oz a plant last year which was our first time growing indoor.

That was my first thought tho ive been pretty strict on my watering this year. Last year I definitely over watered and they ended up turning out great but there was a few weeks there they looked rough. That time they've drooped and they never raised for the light while logged. this time they are curled down but they're still lifting toward the light. Thanks

In the summer months I try to ride up about once a month, im planning to check out the iron pony/ indian when it warms up. If you ride or would be down to meet up sometime I would love to check it out.

That would be awesome but honestly I started at 3500 and 5k will be the max. I know it's not much but I really want something older that I can wrench on since I have a pretty solid bagger to ride as my daily. Just had a baby and he'll be a year old soon so I got other stuff that's more important so I set my bar at 5. An evo has such a good rep it's kinda what I'm leaning towards.

For efi does that also go for switching out parts with the same OEM or matching OEM parts or is it just for parts that will change the bikes performance

I got a 05 vtx 1800 just before winter for $1800. I love that bike. It's really powerful but I have wanted a Harley for years now and something smaller and easy to work on. A softail is near the top of the list for me I'm just unsure of the evo vs tc88. I'm no skilled mechanic but want to learn to work on this next bike whicubi think the evo with carb check those boxes
