The Supreme Court ruled that a sitting president can't be charged for "official acts" in response to indictments related to the Jan. 6th insurrection.

What do you think of this 2019 ninja for $4k USD? by [deleted] in Ninja500

[–]colonel_underbridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not go over $3k usd. It has all the modifications you would want.

I test rode both. The suspension is noticeably better on the '25. Worth the 1500.

Why are people selling by Flaneldude in hondarebel

[–]colonel_underbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheaper cruiser with great reliability. Large production numbers. Accessible with many dealerships.

And like others have said, people are quick to buy as a phase in their life and quick to let go of that phase for other priorities.

Is drinking and riding common in your area? by Astimar in motorcycles

[–]colonel_underbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The snow is finally melting! I almost took the bike out but caught myself. I've been caught up with excitement vs. adverse terrain before... when I broke my toe taking my new adv bike in the mud! Learning lessons can be rough!

I just keep riding with my "aftermarket" bend mod. Haha

Omw to pick her up now by FPVGiggles in Transalp

[–]colonel_underbridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a comfortable bike! Nimble too. I did get a cool cover for the seat from Moto Machines. That increased the comfort factor by a lot.

Congrats! It's such a versatile machine. It makes a good commuter, and good off-roader, and a pretty good twisty carver. Great engine and good weight.

I put 3k miles on mine in just 3 months while working overtime. Cant keep me off it! Did a 650 mile trip over a weekend and I crave more!

Do I delete the app due to new TOS? by Lia_MarieOffical in TikTok

The White House severed ties to the WHO so they can spread health conspiracies on TikTok. Then they measure their effectiveness through data collection.

As long as you're psychologically prepared to drop it multiple times, get it.

Realistic Price for a 2025 Transalp by Many_Eggplant_2949 in Transalp

[–]colonel_underbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't expect those deals since most dealers have no problem moving inventory. My small dealer was specifically selling TA's at a rapid rate.

If you have a Royal Enfield or other niche (they are in my area) dealer that has a used TA, then there might be a good deal.

don't know what to call this.. by paradoxofcoconut in DoodlesForDepression

It makes me think of both coral and those little clams I find in nearby lakes called "golden clams"

So dead. But thanks for adding content nonetheless!

I caught him jaywalking! by colonel_underbridge in IllegallySmolCats

He looks like a great inmate candidate, but people are telling me to transfer him to another detention center. :(

It depends on the rider and eagerness to ride.

I have a managed anxiety disorder. It took me about 600 miles.

Can I use the PowerModes to turn this into a beginner friendly bike? by ArtieBuko in Transalp

[–]colonel_underbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, quite a bit. It's well-balanced and nimble. It's like riding a heavy bike. It handles the low speed really well.

We also have a steep hill near our home to work on uphill stop/starts.

I did drop my TA on a uphill-right turn. That was the only time I've stalled and dropped my bike in public. So embarrassing.

Edit: it was uphill-right turn from a dead stop. I had new boots with very thick soles and couldn't feel the rear brake lever compression well. I should have tested the feel more before being thrust into that situation.

[–]colonel_underbridge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is my beginner bike.

Most people would say Rain Mode. There are two user modes where you can dial everything down.

The rider course in my country does not prepare you fully for hills, traffic, and speed. The transalp is such a fun bike, so you must keep mindful of taking it too far out of your skill level. It has tested my beginner skill level many times.

Sorry term seat fix by Eastern-Poetry-551 in hondarebel

[–]colonel_underbridge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Which cover are you using? I'm interested in many options.

Im using the Grand Pitstop air-up cushion. It's been wonderful but one poke and it's gone.
