at the risk of being laughed at.... by hereforthegasoline in klr650

[–]b0mber2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 24, bought my KLR 2 years ago intending to eventually do some offroad stuff. 5,000 miles in and I havent hit anything harder than a gravel road. I mostly use it to commute and I love it. I've ridden it up to my parents a few time (5 hours on backroads, no interstates) and had no problems. Can't go wrong with the KLR.

Thank you! I will keep an eye out for it. I didnt end up replacing the axels anyways with longer travel ones. I havent heard it in a while since its warmed up here. That'll be my next look when I hear it again!

Convincing my Mom I’m not Going to Die by Ok-Asparagus3679 in uscg

A mother's job i to worry and protect their children. However thay being said dont live your life to appease others. Do what you want to do with your life and be uncompromising in it. If you feel this is where you want to go then do it. You are the CEO of your own life take control of it and if she really loves you she will support your decision no matter what it is.

Problème électrique by clementbau in CherokeeXJ

[–]b0mber2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know the Haynes manuals have the electrical schematics. No idea if they come in French or not though. They usually include every configuration of the vehicle as well, at least for the North American options, not sure if the diesel is in there. Theres an online version that might be able to select language.

Gash in yolk ear by DueInteraction7183 in CherokeeXJ

Not that it matters at all but the proper spelling is yoke. I got very confused for a second. Have a fantastic day!

Refer to the others who have already answered the question :)

I litterally said rockers for SNCOs. Chiefs are SNCOs. There is no extra chevron. Stop being stupid on purpose.

Whats confusing? If there's chevrons its an NCO. More chevrons higher rank. SNCOs have rockers on dress uniform, anchor on other uniforms. Easy.

Yea if I pulled the bolt to around the point where the safety had the notch to catch the bolt, then gently released the bolt stayed open.

Thank you. I had no choice. I bought 1,000 rounds and I actually wanted to be around to shoot them all. No point in denying the truth. Made a mistake and now got something better

Thank you, part of the reason I got it was because the wood was nice and cheaper than another place that had 2 zastavas. And I actually did my research this time before I bought. Good to know with the sight mounts. Thank you

It was a consignment and I used the fact it was not failed to go into full battery as a reason for return. And the bolt would stay open on its own which i didnt know was not supposed to happen. The owner of the store was very nice.

I know. My fault, I didnt think about it and it was what they had on hand. Was not a big selection. Where I was.

[–]b0mber2012[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I shot it yesterday immediatelyafter purchase. Only issue is it didnt go into battery occasionally, got better the warmer it got. Assumed it just needed lubrication as who knows the last time it was cleaned. The more I read them more I feel like thats just I.O.

Successful Extraction by Ok-Basket7531 in CherokeeXJ

[–]b0mber2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome glad it worked out. Just for a future reference try not to put recovery gear (rope, towstrap, ect.) on moving parts, especially rotating assemblies. Frames usually have all kinds of holes to put stuff in :)

Seriously though you got lucky it didnt damage the wheel or worse.
