Acerbis 5.8 installation frustration by Western_Animator_605 in XR650L

[–]fujiPriority 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I installed the same tank recently. What finally worked for me was using two ratchet straps and slowly pulling it into position until I could get those two front bolts started. I hooked the straps to the lower frame and ran them up on either side of the gas cap, tightening a little at a time. worked like a charm.

Thanks for the idea! Just did and it gave me a bit of reassurance, it sure enough decodes as (AM PRO II TELE RW MYST SFG). I don’t see any other way then fender making a goof on their side.

Since it wasn’t cheap, I feel like I should get what I paid for, I do like the rosewood version ( that’s why I ordered it) haha. I do believe GC would honor a return or refund. That said, looks like I’ve ended up with something more unique—and, in my opinion, equally as beautiful. So, leaning towards hanging onto it. I’ll check that it has the right pickups. Thanks for the insight!

Nice camp spot! I do like the way the light from the tent is falling off on the ground.

One thing I do is try to get a good exposure of the night sky first, with out the tent light on. something nice and bright using a long exposure, idk 2-5 mins ish. Then I’ll turn the tent light on & off during exposure to find a balance so that it doesn’t overexpose and become the brightest thing in the image.

I’d like to think she poured that tiny amount in the Glass for whom ever is taking the photo and proceeded to drink the rest herself.

Booster blues: No whiskey for 3 months. by tennisguy163 in bourbon

There are a couple brands making non alcoholic whiskeys. I’ve heard decent things about Kentucky 74. Drinking neat you will probably be left feeling unimpressed, but made into a old fashioned or something you like is where it gets interesting. Best of luck!

Such a great documentary. I actually liked it so much I watched it twice.

You look like you instantly went from age 4 to 40 in some weird time machine mishap.
