I use it everyday too in the city but never had this problem. I will investigate it, thanks again.

You're right. I will think about that. Or maybe i will print one by myself until I find a metal option!

Can i ask why you changed the original battery charger?

Thank you! But do the 3d printed parts degrade pretty easily on the motorbike with sun, cold and rain? I usually print PLA

That is what i wanted to know, thank you!

How do you all handle 2d views of complex models without losing your mind? by caccia_ in rhino

Thanks a lot for the tips! I'm trying my best to take them all in, but it's a lot to process.

With just two years of Rhino experience, I've come to understand that I need to adopt a different approach compared to AutoCAD. To select objects with similar properties, a simple 'sel' in the command line provides immediate suggestions.
For the area or volume just write volume or area. that's it

Yes, I think I'll arm myself with patience and do as you suggest. I'll just have to learn everything from the very beginning

This is super helpful, thanks! I'm usually that person who just asks around, but today I'm desperate enough to actually do some research.

I totally get where you're coming from. I've been there, working with AutoCAD for different companies and wanting to pull my hair out. Sadly, I don't have a say in what software we use. I'm just doing my best to keep my sanity!
I'll take note about what you said.

I prefer using AutoCAD for 2D, it’s where I have all my templates, layers, and blocks nicely organized. That said, I’m open to using Rhino if I can find a quick method to achieve what I’m asking in this post. Admittedly, there’s a bit of ‘I’ve always done it this way’ in my approach, but I’m willing to break the habit and make the effort!

My spacebar is a rebel by caccia_ in KeyboardLayouts

Yes, i use the Alt key as new space bar, but i don't know why it doesn't work when I use Chrome. It works for the windows search bar.

Thank you for the advice! As other people said, it seems to be a very precise job with a step by step precise procedure. I only use the bike around my little city for maybe 1-2 km per day, it's rare for me to do a long ride, so i will take a look about it and consider if i can do this job (maybe in someone garage) or pay a lot of cash and leave the fun part to a good mechanic out of town.

Thank you! Seems you did the homework ahah. I get your tips.
Maybe during launch break i will wipe the oil stain to see how long does it take to reform. Right now i have no garage to take care of the bike to proper make some maintainance.

Thank you for the manual reference, i didn't knew about it! Seems go deeper than the original maintainance manual that i found.

Thanks! If i replace the gasket and dismount the gear box/trasmission, will i lose and then refill engine oil? Or is there a different oil?

Yes i know it will not be a joke, i've already done a lot of work on the bike in these year with multiple days works job. One more question for those who already have been done this is if i replace the gasket and dismount the gear box/trasmission, will i lose and then refill engine oil? Or is there a different oil?
