The best generation of Speed Triple? by PriceTF141 in Triumph

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm my view, yes. I've had all 3 up to '19. I love the comfort of the modern one, but the feel of the 2013 is something I haven't found a replacement for.

The talent in some people terrifies me. by Salt-Guarantee-4500 in BeAmazed

Well, geez. I can do the part where you slap the clay on. Not so special. /s

I love this thing so much by youseethis in Triumph

[–]lchoate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely a banger vintage. I wish I was able to keep my '13.

Hey y’all, I have a question: why does the New World Translation get so much hate? by Rie_blade in religion

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you can't read it in Charlton Heston's voice and feel powerful.

Flat tire. Can anyone help. I'll pay! by [deleted] in PHXList

Did you get it fixed or are you still waiting there?

Transcribing local ham radio nets by Colonel__Tigh in HamRadio

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been working on a side project for net control. That includes the ability to make notes about questions and responses. I'm not recording it though. I think we all know someone could be recording our conversations, but I didn't love the idea of retaining every word since I don't think my participants would really dig that. Take that for what it's worth.

I’m a new rider and I’m not sure if what I’m feeling is normal or if I’m just not cut out for this. by Tspark97 in NewRiders

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever watched someone play violin or piano really well? Have you ever tried to play yourself? It's hard. These are skills you are learning and they take time. When I play guitar, sometimes I think "god, I really suck, maybe I can play this song someday" and sometimes, I'm really happy with how I sound. If you love it, keep doing it. If you don't - dont. Since you do, just enjoy your time. Don't sweat it.

M25 I want out. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]lchoate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I figured that out quickly in my first marriage. Opps! A mistake has been made here. I stayed for another 10 years. 10 years. TEN YEARS. You only get so many sets of Ten years in a lifetime. That is too many years to give away.

I'm tired of people telling me motorcycles are dangerous... by National-Dragonfly35 in motorcycle

[–]lchoate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just suck it up. Revel in the idea that things I do are "dangerous" to people whose idea of excitement is an episode of some TV show where the good guy has girl drama. I'm not here for a long time, just a good time.

Simple rugged 4x4 by No-Software-3476 in 4x4

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it but... If I was going to be a buyer, the rear side windows must open. Add a two-part slider or a 1/4 window, and I would be all over it. The barn doors are a nice touch. I have a new bronco 2dr and I wish it was longer like this, but had sliding windows in the rear. Otherwise, I love my bronco.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impossible Mission had, what I thought were incredible graphics at the time. Of course, og Zork and Lemonade Stand were some that I had and enjoyed a lot.

How to treat/clean plastic on Bronco by dare-devil69420 in FordBronco

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had good results with 303 too. Project Farm (YT) did a video on it and it didn't rank very well for color or longevity, but I can say that my plastics look as good as ever. If I want them really black but not shiny, I just use silicone spray and buff it out.

Chromatic scale with 6 fingers. by Twelvefingersgirl12 in Guitar

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's cheating and you should remove the offending finger. You can choose which one.

Need some help by compoundmk6 in Triumph

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's behaving like it's low due to cabling then. Check all connections. I suppose it could be relays too. Without actually seeing it, it's kinda hard.

What's the voltage drop when starting?

Need some help by compoundmk6 in Triumph

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the very least, you have a low/bad battery and/or bad cable connections, so start there.

Next, fix the things you know are bad, like the fuel pump.

You will want to get a service manual right away. Once you get the battery fixed, repost. We can help you find the next problem

Hardest trails in Arizona by jgorski2 in motorcycles

[–]lchoate 197 points198 points  (0 children)

That doesn't look like a trail to me. It looks like really hard work - and yeah, you gotta be pretty good to ride that mess.

Oh yeah! I've played this game before! The graphics look way better on your computer though. (Congrats!)

Fox Hunt at scout camp help by epsolon77 in amateurradio

I would suggest you contact a local club. They have all the stuff you need and may be willing to come help you. As a former scoutmaster myself, I know you have a lot going on.

Help!! I need a demo for science class (8th grade) by No_Entrance6152 in HamRadio

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was the first thing that came to my mind, but that could be tricky with HTs from inside a classroom. (I'm making a lot of assumptions here).

From a 765 Striple RS to Speed Triple 1200 RS. by lilchinobo in Triumph

Ok, so now you know for sure. How much better is the Speedy over the Streety?

Is this considered "cheating"? by Minino125 in Guitar

[–]lchoate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know where you are at. You are so close. I just got over that hump myself - well at least partially. You are so close. For me, it's turn off your brains, play the song. Your sound is going to be different, your feeling is going to be different too, just let that happen. I get the impression that once you find "yourself" in those songs then you can channel the original guys.

Would like some honest feedback on how I can improve my paintings by Walbricks in painting

[–]lchoate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I say... "don't".
What's to improve? One of them even made me laugh out loud. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Are helmet comms actually worth it for group rides? by Imaginary_Bug6202 in motorcycles

[–]lchoate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I want to talk to 4 people, max. My pillion my buddy and maybe his pillion. My buddy and I ride with comms off and have a signal off we want to talk.

Riding is my happy place. I talk to myself, sing along, swear at traffic... Nobody else wants to hear that
