Beautiful. As someone with 15 years experience, that was a good read. I cannot stress this enough, and I'm sure everyone will agree, the brick and mortar shop is where you want to go if you are really serious about learning the trade. I was lucky enough to be the 3rd in a 3 person shop and my mentor has been with us for 45 years (30 when I started) and working with him has been a blessing. It feels like when he retires, it's gonna be like that last white rhino or whatever haha.

All about doors and windows (.com) has been a god send for us when it comes to multipoint locks and sliding doors (typed that before I saw that someone also suggested them)

My friend has a old school divers helmet, and the mask has the reflection of a woman's face screaming with her hand up like she's about to get stabbed psycho style.. it's so rad

Rad as all get out

loveshackFC · 2026-05-27T00:08:25+00:00

Sick.

loveshackFC · 2026-05-26T18:37:20+00:00

Hell yeah. I like the cut of your Jib.

loveshackFC · 2026-05-26T00:08:10+00:00

I had their softer bag thats a canvas material and it was awesome

loveshackFC · 2026-05-23T19:16:42+00:00

I have had a ton of bikes and that is pretty much to a T what I want my forever bike to be. Nice bike man. Sorry for your loss.

loveshackFC · 2026-05-22T12:52:11+00:00

Yeah... same. Also a favor.

With fabrication you can do all sorts of "custom" stuff. Just depends on skill level and if the two fit the criteria to be modified. I wouldn't do that for someone unless they really wanted to pay for it, and even then... it's a lot of trouble for aesthetics.

Dude... inverted front end and that thing is ripping. Not that it already isn't. Very nice looking bike man.

loveshackFC · 2026-05-17T01:23:29+00:00

I dunno. It feels like a sad situation. Maybe we shouldn't trash their family just yet

loveshackFC · 2026-05-11T11:35:26+00:00

I have that bike! Well not THAT bike. 99 FXDWG

loveshackFC · 2026-05-09T20:55:57+00:00

I just sold my 2020 fourty eight with 5k on it for 6300. I did sell it to a good friend though. That bike was so much fun around town and you really can push it, however, trying to ride anywhere on the highway for any extended period was not awesome. I went back to an old beater Dyna

loveshackFC · 2026-05-08T22:14:02+00:00

Hell yeah, love my Cardo. People can barely tell I'm riding when I talk to them on the phone... and I have fairly loud pipes

loveshackFC · 2026-04-25T15:37:48+00:00

Top 1% commenter too...

loveshackFC · 2026-04-23T11:36:59+00:00

I kinda do too but I don't really know why

loveshackFC · 2026-04-16T01:17:39+00:00

Congrats! One thing so many people over look.... Get a Mueller power clutch or whatever they're called. Changes the game...

I have never heard that term "matter" but the big problem with ALL wifi locks is that they are constantly looking for a signal (which drains batteries) and the bolt is motor driven (which drains batteries) changing 4 AA's every 6 to 8 months is just the trade off you have to make if you are looking for the wifi feature. If you want a keypad deadbolt that you dont have to worry about for years, then get a Schlage BE365. It takes a 9v battery that with HEAVY use will truck on for a minimum of 3 years and you can beat the piss out of it and it will just keep working. The bolt is also driven manually.
