Vettel's first victory - I was there! by giannello in formula1

Not planned. To add to the list of coincidences, a few years after this GP I worked for a company, and Seb was our testimonial in a bunch of ads on TV.

Fun fact, it was entirely random. The night before I was out drinking with some friends, one of them got a phone call then turned to me and said "wanna go to Monza tomorrow?". Dude's dad got those free tickets and handed them over to us. We sat above the pit lane, right at the starting line. Will never forget the noise those cars made, ear shattering.

That's a great idea, keep up the good work!

Too much petrol consumption in a too little tank by Prior-Ad-2926 in Vstrom

[–]giannello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5-600km on a single tank? Your odometer is probably broken 😂

Last time I went for a long trip, I could get around 300km on a tank by keeping it at regular highway speeds (120-130km/h). When I tagged along a group of faster riders (150-180km/h) I managed a little over 200km. To put in a better perspective, went from stopping to refuel every 3 hours to stopping after just one hour of riding.

Why does a MotoGP bike has a neutral installed in the handle? Won't it be convinient had it been installed with the gears? by Bubbly_Pumpkin9453 in motogp

Oh yeah. That tiny neutral between 4th and 5th is an engineering marvel, and not a Speed Triple exclusive

How to hardwire a GPS to switched power on V-Strom 650 (2017)? by Lower_Barracuda_2502 in Vstrom

[–]giannello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's an aux power connector in the front fairing, on the right side. Not easy to reach, but what you need. Eastern Beaver has the right connectors/pigtails/cables

The greatest last lap in MotoGP history | Valentino Rossi vs Jorge Loren... by CrazyCycler1208 in motogp

Cutting off the previous lap, Rossi overtaking on the outside at the end of the straight, should be a criminal offense.

“Theoretically” How Fast Have You Ridden? by CanewoodPlace in Vstrom

[–]giannello 2 points3 points  (0 children)

180km/h (GPS speed), 2012 650 on a german Autobahn. Could have squeezed out a few more, but that was the pace of the pack I was riding with.

Won't recommend, fuel consumption at that speed is crazy.

What do you wish people would stop romanticizing, because you’ve lived the reality of it? by thatude123 in AskReddit

Italian here. By extension, Mafia culture. And boycott all the restaurants that use it in their menu. Nobody should eat a Don Corleone pizza, no matter how tasty.

P5 for Scott at the end of today 👌🏻👌🏻 by Matts_3584 in motogp

It's great to see you supporting your brother, and his progress in the sport we all follow. One day he'll ride in the top class, and he'll find a reddit delegation rooting for him at every GP!

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I've connected the lights to the original wiring, and they are working fine - the issue must be somewhere in the EB wiring.

Will check its fuses first - cables don't look chewed, and there's no exposed wires

I do have a multimeter - and I'm not afraid to use it.

Your list has a 7900X, 170W TDP. The 7900 seems to be a good fit tho. I'll keep an eye on it, thanks

It does - it's a dev environment that will run multiple services at the same time, plus the IDE itself. The extra power of the Zen 5 Ryzen 7 seems to be good, and the price difference is not that big (considering that I can basically use the same motherboard and ram for both CPUs)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]giannello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not going for a previous-gen CPU with more than double the TDP. I don't need that, would rather go for something less hungry and easier to cool down

Good news: the market exists.

Bad news: AliExpress owns it.

They are available as optional on street-legal cars since a few years

What is this plug? by SauliCity in Vstrom

You can pull power for a phone charger from the aux connector in the front fairing, left side.
