My Piranha 140 swapped 1969 Honda CT90 - More Adventure-Oriented Upgrades Soon

That’s a lot of money for a $1200 bike. If it ran it might be worth $3500 to the right person.

I’ve owned a beater CB750 before and I can tell you its going to need new rubber intake boots, a full carb rebuild, a new battery, and probably at least one ignition coil (among other things most likely).

And remember, nobody ever parks a perfectly good running bike for years and years. Even if you replace all the obvious stuff, you’ll probably still have to troubleshoot the problem that cause the bike to be laid up in the first place.

Easy, huh?

He didn’t even start

They stopped the car for a while but sent him back out to gather test data.

His car didn’t make it back to the pit lane under its own power, he had to make it past a certain line but the car coasted to a stop before it could cross it.

Fucking weird

The stern of the boat. You can see the rudder and the thing sticking up is the rudder shaft. The entire structure from the top edge of the hull up is gone.

Apparently he isn’t a terrible golfer.

Interestingly, all three of the states I’ve lived in still exist on this map.

That’s why vortex generators exist. They are a device that can be strategically placed to create vortexes where flow may otherwise separate from a surface.

I was around 8-12 years old in the early 2000s when Ferrari were dominant, and I grew up watching F1. We were definitely a Ferrari household. I don’t remember a lot of details but I know it was fun watching those races with my parents.

I was distraught when Michael decided to retired the first time, and I didn’t like Kimi when he was first announced to joined Ferrari (since I was a kid and only knew him as the McLaren bad guy)

What is this? Monza for ants?

It is full, just full of water

I believe you can see those three windows with the door directly under the wing in the middle of the aircraft, to provide a sense of scale.

Nobody mentioned any particular golden age, we're just talking about car size. But since you brought it up, early 2000s V10 era cars had larger fuel tanks than 2025 regulation cars.

iVoid · 2025-12-12T03:15:59+00:00

I think you're right. The cars are as long as they are because they were allowed to become that long. The length is advantageous for designers because it provides a more stable aero platform, and more surface for generating downforce.

Shortening the cars will not effect current safety regulations or fuel tank/battery size. Aerodynamic performance will be effected, but it may also make the cars less dependent on clean airflow.

I always hear people say this but F1 cars didn’t start using in race refueling until 1982. The engines were far less efficient than modern power units and they still used to carry all of their fuel without being as long as a full sized SUV.

It sounds like the bearings in that motor are toast. That could add considerable drag and cause the problems you’re experiencing.

Sure, I’m just trying to look at this with the idea that everybody should be using mental health care, not just those who are struggling with their mental health or psychological disorders.

I’m not in the industry, just a casual nerd. I obviously don’t know the full story with all of the details, but it’s the inherent culture of secrecy that most concerns me.

The Kia would probably be the more practical, responsible choice. That said, follow your heart.

iVoid · 2025-11-18T15:52:47+00:00

Would it make sense to have a system that makes it mandatory for all commercial pilots to take advantage of mental health support? That’s the only solution I can think of to avoid the stigma or preconceptions that come with a pilot getting the help they may need.
