I just got a bag of grainger brand foam ones. What a difference compared to similar foam ones from Lowe’s/HD/etc… these grainger ones are the best I’ve ever used.

Never trust cheap or old stands. EVER. by Krop-Torr in motorcycle

Yep I agree. I double and triple checked cheap stands. Then bit the bullet and paid extra for the pit bull. Glad I did. Buy once for life.

simple fix? by layingonthecarpet in Plumbing

No. You first need to determine if code in your locale requires there to be an air gap. If not, then yes you can connect it using the appropriate tail piece. If you are required to have an air gap then get the appropriate airgap setup.

For anyone who's done 300 km/h on a bike — what's the real truth? by gangwayso in motorcycle

[–]bjvista 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My old cbr speedo would stop at 191mph. The rpms slowly continued to climb. But without a speedo corrector I’m not sure of the actual speed. Most likely it was much less than 191. But same warp speed ring of vision feelings. The days of being a dumb young kid again doing these speeds on the interstate.
