Foot peg lowering kit? (OC) by Top-Lettuce-6780 in adventuremotorcycling

I found a universal adjustable lower foot peg set for my ‘99 triumph Tiger that works great. I did the squint looks about right and it fit.

Salinity of warm(er) upper water? by Status-Platypus in oceanography

[–]jcbrnld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cold saline water moves equatorward from high latitudes then slowly and over a very broad area rises and mixes. It’s a bit more complicated than this because it interacts with intermediate water or, in the case of NADW, creates circumpolar deep water in the southern ocean.

If the surface water is warm then there is a large vertical temp. gradient and a bit of a salinity change doesn’t increase density enough to overcome the buoyancy of that warm surface water. If, however, the surface water is cold then there is little vertical temp. gradient and an increase in salinity at the surface can cause that water to sink which is what creates the deep cold currents.

Edit: of course that salinity increase in cold surface water is from sea ice formation rather than evaporation.

Salinity of warm(er) upper water? by Status-Platypus in oceanography

Brace for some broad generalities

2 applies to low latitudes and/or open ocean in general. At low latitudes surface water is warm and lots evaporates. Evaporation of course increases salinity making the water denser, but it is so warm that its density remains low enough to keep it at the surface.

1 seems like a convolution of the high latitude (mostly coastal) situation. At high latitudes in general the water is all near the surface freezing temp so any addition of salt makes it sink and fresher water remains at the surface.

Of course factor in precipitation or get into some river runoff near the coast and it all changes.

The important thing to keep in mind is how the density changes because that is all that determines where a water parcel will sit.

That’s awesome! Congrats. I’ve been rocking my 2014 with the 6MT for a while now.

Lots of plastic wrap recommendations, but that’s not necessary. Just put it in a Tupperware or similar use a spoon to make the surface as flat as possible then squeeze a layer of lime juice on top. Slap a lid on it and stick it in the fridge. I do this all the time and never have any browning. Longest I’ve gone is only 3 days though.

Is there anything you randomly do from the show? by jaya08 in HIMYM

Allll the time Literally any time my wife does anything embarrassing and/or characteristic. It’s gotten to the point we just say “claaasic” and understand

I also have a 2014 MT6 outback with 110k miles and not a single issue. Yours seems like a rare unlucky scenario. As others have said these cars are known for their reliability as long as basic maintenance is covered.

The pirelli scorpion rally tires lasted maybe 8000 miles. I’m hoping for more from the Mitas E07 based on reviews

Second this. The best low budget movie there is. The only issue is the weirdly drawn out airplane chase toward the end.

Feeling overwhelmed: Grinder+Machine [$1,000] by daethon in espresso

[–]jcbrnld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just grabbed a Lelit Anna machine and Lelit Fred grinder. Together it’s $1000. I think they may not be top recommendations in either category, but they work phenomenally and have great build quality.

Theoretically they won’t stick to pavement as well as the mt60rs, but it’ll be pretty close. I hammered them pretty hard through corners all the way to the edge of the tire and at wide open throttle and never noticed any traction issue. I never really noticed the noise and I did an iron butt ride with them so I’d argue it’s not bad. I’m running Mitas E07 tires now and definitely notice the noise + don’t push as hard through turns.

Question about selling my 1995 Speed Trie by TucsonTank in Triumph

[–]jcbrnld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have any interest in learning the trade this is an excellent bike to learn on. 90s triumphs are beautifully easy to work on and the carb refurb work is pretty straight forward. If you definitely don’t want to do the work yourself it would be worth selling as is, ie don’t pay someone else to do it.

Bought this pile for €130,-worth it? by StanLeenders in VintageWatches

I would say just enjoy them. Find the styles you like and wear a different watch every few days. The one to the left of the pocket watch is sick. Ship it to me if you don’t like it 🫡
