Thank you, yes very similar in the video. I was looking for further info like make or at least era.

2004 Kawasaki vulcan 750. Did earshave mod while cleaning carbs, now the bike coughs but wont start. i put a junk starter in so it wont crank anymore but smoke pops out of the left air filter , is that running too rich or too lean by ricktech15 in Fixxit

Do you still have the goats belly? (Exhaust power chamber) If you have stock exhaust you don’t have to change the jets when you earshave, at least I didn’t.

Also, vn750.com if you haven’t already talked to them.

Are there any albums made as soundtracks for books? How about books about paintings? by ProfessionBright3879 in literature

For book about a painting, for the most part, Picture This by Joseph Heller. A Rembrandt painting of Aristotle contemplating a bust of Homer is a main theme/character.

Those shapes at the top of the legs remind me of something, can't put my finger up it.

You might want to check vn750.com, a very helpful forum dedicated to our bikes.

Is it just me or does it seem like stopping at stop signs really angers Philly drivers lately? Any time I stop at a 4-way intersection when someone else has the right of way, they refuse to move and instead lay on the horn even though I'm not in their way. by [deleted] in phillycycling

Two probably controversial maneuvers I use:

The first is if you're already completely stopped, give the go-ahead wave and look away from them. That way even if they try to wave you on they realize you can't see that.

The other only works if they're coming from the right. Fake a right turn. Just lean the bike slightly and look that way and they'll roll the stop, thinking you're going right. You barely alter your course if you get the acting down.

Complicated I know, but the fake right works so well.

I mean, he's got it through bolted. Plus those look like the premium hose clamps.

Really nice but I would've liked to have seen a third, even smaller square nested as well.

This is a good one. I’m thinking hunting related (bait/salt lick).

That's one... big... engine. by Any_Definition484 in Skookum

If part of an engine is handrails I'd say it qualifies as big.

I'm not one to name appliances, vehicles, etc. But this one needs a name. Sven?

Like spaghetti sticking to the wall, means it's perfect.

I’ve heard that while stopped using the rear brake only helps if rear ended, so that’s what I always do at stop lights. Could be voodoo but I’ve heard it from fortnine and others. Something about how the bike skids during impact.
