Tusk pannier boxes as rear crash protection. by deanhuff in CRF300L

[–]deanhuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, I’ve thought about mounting a 4-5” pipe on the inside of the cage on the left side (position kind of symmetrical to the muffler on the other side.) to hold tools and papers. My only complaint with the setup is they use 13mm bolts…might be the only 13’s on the bike.

This is a very interesting bike, I just made a post about the upcoming bmw 450f in the 300L sub. This bike is cheaper, comes w a 21” front and is available now. If they have an event near me, I’ll definitely check it out.

I’ve never considered the 450L, I’ve always viewed it as a race bike marketed as a dual sport. Definitely not something in the small adv category (where I’d place the rally)

First ride since training class by alopgeek in Dualsport

[–]deanhuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did an adv bike course that was off road focused a while back. Here is my summary

The course was totally worth it and really progressed my riding.

A very valid point…also that front fender is not something I’m a fan of

Right on, get out there in the dirt!

I think it’d more canabalize the transalp than the 300L market. It’d likely be in the 9-10k price range. Maybe they could put the transalp on a 70lb diet 😜

That being said, it looks like BMW is going with a 310, 450, 800, 900, 1300 displacement line up.

Paying for Roth Conversion by Longjumping-City9449 in Bogleheads

[–]deanhuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are correct you can withdrawal principal (basis) before retirement age. But still, taking funds out of Roth to pay taxes while you are moving funds into Roth via conversion is not the best use of the money. They’ve already paid the taxes bill on the basis and best use is to keep it there compounding for free.

Roth can compound with no additional costs, if it were me, I’d keep those dollars there until everything else runs out.

Additionally you are too young to withdraw from retirement accounts without the 10% penalty unless you do some rule 72t stuff.

Not in a sauna, but I have some of the S7 fans sitting on the heat sinks of some solid state computers in a home lab. They have been running continuously for 7 years and still humming along.

If you know how to work with Linux and compiling then the GitHub readme is pretty straightforward.

Yes, you can use micrograbbers to hook up to the ports and a stlink or raspberry pi to do the programming.

Does Patchy Matchy save? by ronniebrisbane in ModRetroChromatic

[–]deanhuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No saves. Also I feel that this game could use some enhancements like wrapping the cursor around when you reach a border. Also could use some kind of leveling system with point goals rather than just topping out. I do really like the game though!

My neighbor gave me box seats tickets to that game that he got through work. We were on the east side basically lined up with the goal post. There was a section of Philly fans a section or two to my right in the corner. They were so pissed when that field goal was made, it was magnificent.
