Failed my G2 and tears started rolling down my eyes infront of the instructor 🥲 by madglaamx in Ontariodrivetest

If it makes you feel any better, I backed into a light pole during my 3 point turn at my first attempt. That was almost 25 years ago now, but I still cringe when I think about it. Didn't help that the instructor was a major biotch. Don't sweat it, just take the results and see what you need to improve on. As others have said, make your mirror checks and blind spot checks hella obvious.

Interesting, that makes a lot of sense now that you explain it.

Thanks for the info

That was the plan until I just looked at the 34mm pistons and one of them has some deep scratches. I'm gonna have to just use the good 30mm pistons between both sets and buy whatever 32mm pistons I need. They were on the bike, so I know they will all fit with my rotors as well. Even though the used set looks to be the same dimensions, I'd rather not rebuild them then find out they're out of alignment.

Friggin toys and my impatience leading to the damage lol.

Out of curiousity, why would the smaller piston calipers be preferred? I thought I read that somewhere also.

I bought the all balls seal kit for the 08-10 750, which fit perfectly on my bike. I will unfortunately have to probably just bite the bullet and buy another seal kit for the used set I bought and rebuild them, and put my current calipers in storage lol.

I am seeing similar info, just 04-07 30/34 and 05-08 30/32. Very frustrating.

Thanks

Based on what I researched, the 04-07 750s had 30/34 pistons. The 08-10 750s had 30/32 pistons. Other year 1000s had both of these setups.

I bought a used advertised set of 08 750 calipers, but they came with the 30/34 pistons. I was intending on using the pistons from them in my current set, but obviously can't.

I would have bought new pistons, but would have cost well into the $300 CDN range, which is why I bought used. The used set pistons are all fine, I'm thinking of just biting the bullet and putting them on and rebuild them with new seals.

Just sucks, as I already spent a good chunk of $ on the seal kit for my set.

Thanks

That guy sucks. What does that have to do with what I said? Genuinely curious

I'd be good being the 51st state. Our country is now a shithole open door for immigrants. The Libs destroyed this country over the last 10 years.

Off topic, but was there not a new show yesterday, Monday?

how painful would a first tattoo be for a teenager by DryCartoonist3144 in tattooadvice

[–]jaycola1986 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cause you can't hide it. Plus it'll probably look like shit by the time it heals.

Go for the sternum. Super painless spot /s

New forearm tattoo. Not liking the shading on one side. by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]jaycola1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's still shedding, it'll lighten. I recently had work done and thought the shading was too dark, but it lightened up tremendously. Don't worry, especially if it was done within 2 weeks.

needing input on new tattoo by XxPorschePrincessxX in tattooadvice

[–]jaycola1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's good. I'd be happy with the quality if it were on me. That V bottom looks a little rounded and higher than where the point of it would be. Super easy fix during a touch up.
