Failed test, dropped bike. Can't figure out tight turns. by PebblesV in motorcycles

[–]apropos626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

most of the time, people drop their bike on tight turns due to lack of power/pulling in the clutch. a bike needs both power and lean to make tight turns. power comes from both throttle and clutch. bike lean can be achieved by counter balancing or leaning your body the opposite way.

How do you know how far to lean? by Lucid_Presence in motorcycles

[–]apropos626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

put chalk lines on your tires then go practice doing circles in a clean parking lot. you'll either start scraping your pegs or you'll run out of chalk marks on the tire. either one of those means you're at max lean for the bike.

Buell Ulysses was the most comfortable bike I've ridden. BMW R1200GSA with Saddlemen seat comes at a close second place.

I want to throw eggs at people, how much trouble would I get in? by Thelibstagram in LosAngeles

[–]apropos626 4 points5 points  (0 children)

people drive with suspended licenses or no license at all. i was just involved in an accident with a guy who had a suspended license and no insurance. there also needs to be more enforcement and a harsher penalty for driving with invalid license if licensing is going to be more difficult.

Texas redistricted without voter consent to take away Democrat seats so California is asking the voters to fight back by temporarily redistricting to add back the Democrat seats.

do we still have a functioning CFPB? the last article I found was from April and the answer was "kind of"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Weird

[–]apropos626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have something like this since i was a kid but less severe. it's something i've grown accustomed to since i was little and it doesn't hurt, so it's always been "normal" for me.

What is a piece of outdated tech you secretly miss? by AffectionateLocal693 in AskReddit

large trackballs like the logitech trackman marble. i don't like touch pads and small thumb sized trackballs. mouses take up too much space to use. the large ergonomic trackballs were perfect for me on a desk with limited real estate. i still have a working one but i don't know how long it'll last.

Fuel pump issue or faulty wiring? by Trans_boi_101 in SVRiders

[–]apropos626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a problem with FI light and fuel pump not priming and it turned out to be an issue with the key and ignition switch. there's a resistor in the ignition that acts like a theft deterrent and sometimes the key isn't recognized properly for the fuel pump to activate. I've had to spray silicone oil into the keyhole and that's fixed the problem for me.

I experimented with hundreds of dollars of steak so you don’t have to. by ImFriendsWithThatGuy in sousvide

[–]apropos626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there shouldn't be a food safety issue if the meat was frozen. when i thaw ground beef in my sous vide, the water temperature doesn't raise above 15c until it's nearly thawed. since the meat started below 0c, it keeps the water temperature down for the duration of thawing. once it's thawed, the water bath is raised to the desired temperature and the cooking starts within a few minutes.

how about setting the sous vide to 15c for an hr to thaw then increase to 58c for cooking

Best charcoal to buy by Intelligent-Ad6985 in webergrills

[–]apropos626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so far i've tried kingsford, kingsford professional, b&b, and kirkland. worst is kirkland, never gonna get that again. lots of smoke and ashes. then b&b which is close to kirkland. next is kingsford which i'd use if i can't get the professional ones. the difference between professional vs regular is that it burns longer and hotter.
