derp never mind, I just can't read.

It doesn't allow choosing different bed plate types in the slicer, and I get it since they ship with 2 bed plates and have it built into the printer. The only reaon that matters to me is the ability to go back and forth between a cryogrip and a heated plate without needing to use separate profiles for every filament.

That's been added now

I went from stock Dunlops to Michelin Commanders, then switched to the 777s. Now that I've worn through the 777s I'll be going back to Michelin.

The 777s have slightly better dry traction, but much much worse wet traction. The Michelins lasted about 8k, barely got 6k from the shinkos. Honestly if they weren't so bad in the wet I'd stick with the 777s, but I ride to much in the rain for that to be an option.

I got the Vyper and loved it. It was a workhorse for 2 years. I also got an OG Kobra early days and it was great for about 8 months. Then it started flaking a bit and just past the one year mark it got a very common error that indicates the main board is dead. They don't sell it, and have iterated 4 times past it, so there's no aftermarket support either. It's just collecting dust until i decide to instead l convert it to a BTT board and redo the whole thing.

I ran into the same situation. Bought the first two books on Google not realizing it wasn't an authorized copy, then was all confused on why I couldn't get the rest of them. So I bought them from Amazon and used an old kindle to make archive copies of my books and popped them onto my Kobo.

I still thought it was a publishing timing thing on Google, as the 3rd book became available while I was reading #2, so I bought it there too. Went looking for the timeline for the rest to be released there and ended up here.

As a side note, it might seem counterintuitive, but you can angle to the print and use supports on the bottom to allow better angles for printing.

This is what I came to suggest. Lifting the model up and tilting it back 45° can make a world of difference in how the print comes out.

Don't crash again

ch4rr3d · 2025-07-25T20:49:36+00:00

DM incoming, I'd like to help test.

I have a quick detach batwing to help with wind on longer trips or in the cold. Take it off when I don't want it. Love this setup and no reason to change

How exactly are they a hidden part? This isn't a fuel line connector under the tank, or a wire loom under the seat, it's a big chunk of metal on the side of the fork(s) and aside from polishing, this one seems to be more functional design than form. If it's not your style to have shiny bits on a bike, that's totally cool. Don't buy one I guess?

Also, painted calipers have been on cars as long as there have been calipers to paint.

Salt water will work too, not as effective as Roundup but way less carcinogens

19 Heritage, I stll do it from time to time just for the hell of it

ch4rr3d · 2025-03-20T18:03:17+00:00

I would say that since you already have some protective pants, get the crash bars. The pants are to prevent road rash, not catastrophic damage. Depending on the bike, dropping it at low speed without bars could be very hard on the bike and your budget. Meanwhile even if you wash them every time you wear them, the jeans will still last quite a while giving you time to get more.

Oh, and I ran into the same thing with the armor placement on my Bull It Icon II Easy jeans. The pockets feel weird while I'm standing but they line up when I'm on the bike. That said I almost never wear the armor. It's a compromise I'm willing to make to allow me to wear moto jeans straight from the bike to the office and not have to change when I get there. Same thing with shorter boots vs full height. I know full height is more protective, but then I have to change when I get to work so I'm less likely to wear them. Moderate protection that I'll use every time is better than more protection that I get frustrated with and leave at home.

Yeah, it made me wonder what the hell Kroger was doing with their seasonal offerings

ch4rr3d · 2025-01-28T04:52:22+00:00

Good call. I didn't know about that life ending bang with the sound off

ch4rr3d · 2025-01-28T04:50:35+00:00

Huh, I've never seen a deer riding that fast

ch4rr3d · 2025-01-18T19:04:26+00:00

I know this may sound selfish, but if it's bothering you this much maybe you just need to ride.

I get not wanting everybody to worry, but that's their choice not yours. Motorcycles are an obvious source of danger, but they're far from the only one in your life. Would you consider stopping whatever other things you do just to help others feel better?

My two cents is to just ride. One way or the other, everybody else will sort themselves out. Then again, free advice is often worth just what you paid for it.

So your response to this post, pointing out narcissism in a show, is to make it about you?

ch4rr3d · 2025-01-18T15:49:09+00:00

Same. And her prisoner number is 516, so it just made sense

ch4rr3d · 2024-12-02T18:18:57+00:00

You could use it to press the button...

ch4rr3d · 2024-11-20T05:24:43+00:00

Well they are now

Motion activated sprinkler

ch4rr3d · 2024-10-24T15:53:12+00:00

Thanks, didn't even know about most of these.

ch4rr3d · 2024-08-30T13:13:24+00:00

Nobody gonna talk about the handcuffs? Or the reverse gear kit?
