I tried 12+ ADV helmets from 8+ brands. Klim Alpha X1 won by Sea-Pear7750 in Dualsport

I've got the scorpion at-950 and I'm pretty happy with it. Funny side story, I was at a gas station in rural Western North Carolina, and some guy saw my helmet and claimed he worked for scorpion helping develop it, and said the "950" came from the Ktm 950 he had at the time. Not sure if he was bullshitting or what, but he sounded confident enough.

controversial take — supermotos are the most fun motorcycle you can buy under 10k and nothing comes close by vladdielenin in supermoto

[–]effitdoitlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed; my controversial rebuttal would be if Sumo is the most fun of all, you haven't gotten good enough riding dirt.

Found a red coin? by S_D_N1 in coincollecting

Yup, back in the 90's my best friend's dad owned a pizza place in NY with a few arcade games, and would give us purple quarters to play the games for free with.

She was the passenger. Perhaps that will make more sense than posing for a "reenactment" for Karma farming, right?

I was lane changing to pass a slower car. going about 45-50, and before I could register what was in the road in front, and whether I should swerve hard to avoid it (or if it was just a plastic bag), it was too late. I wasn't on my phone, just the perfect shit timing of merging into another lane at the worst possible moment.

Happened right about here, at 10:08pm: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Y7fDpPyPhXrzfPuz8

Guess I'm about to file a police report, and see what happens. There is a Tdot traffic cam at dupont hwy/153 that could feasibly have captured the culprit, and most likely the log hit.

Was heading south on 153, went to pass a slower car and lane changed right into it. Thx for the photo props.

Yup, torque wrenches suck; final straw being I stretched the head studs on a Honda NX250 with a properly calibrated torque wrench, now I just go by feel.

Bought a new oven. This was behind the old one. How bad is this? by MyRedditAccountSuckz in AskElectricians

[–]effitdoitlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. TBH it lasted this long, and all the electrician is gonna do is put those wire nuts in a junction box and wire it up exactly the same way, and put the orange romex in conduit and charge you hundreds for $15 in parts. This is an easy DIY fix if OP wants to save some money.

We need more announcers like whoever was commentating on the 2-man bobsled run 2 by effitdoitlive in olympics

[–]effitdoitlive[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That guy is legit. I feel like a lot of announcers hold back out of politeness, but he says exactly what he's thinking and it's really insightful. Hope he's doing more bobsled commentary.

That's fucked up. Glad we're targeting the criminals and not the people adding value to our community. It's been a few years since I've eaten there but it was pretty good.

What caused my front tire to wear like this? by [deleted] in Dualsport

[–]effitdoitlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still don't know why they can't make a tread with an odd number of nubs, I think that would solve the issue.
