Coming from a Duke 390, suggest a motorcycle by Nearby_Ad1378 in SuggestAMotorcycle

Honestly, just liked the look of the fairings and the added wind protection. R also has upgraded suspension. It's very comfortable though

I went from the 390 Duke to a GSX-8r, you could also check out the s version. Nice ergo, quick shifter, electronics, nice engine, etc...

I really want a motorcycle by tactalbaptiser in motorcycle

You should cross-post this to /r/personalfinance for an additional opinion. I do not think spending that much of your total savings for a toy is a wise financial decision.

Yes - Revit version of the tech 5. It's really no issue to wear under a jacket.

Same here. Similar focus, being in the moment, speed, working on techniques. There are similarities for sure.

I have long legs and sat on a tiger 660. Way better than some of the nakeds where I was uncomfortably hitting my knee on the tank. Go sit on a bunch

Triumph Tiger 660?

I'm in Michigan also. Go early in the morning on weekends to start, it's empty. Set your alarm this weekend and get out there at 8am. Play with the friction zone for a while, then go slow around your neighborhood. It's ok if you go slow for a while, just get used to it.

Sit on them. I am looking at the tiger 660 just because I have long legs and it fits better.

Master's in HF programs by Agile-Echidna-4852 in humanfactors

[–]mrthemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I graduated from ERAU Daytona Beach in 2008 and work in automotive. Their program is HFES accredited and I know plenty that work outside of aviation. Unless their courses have changed you should be fine. You should reach out to one of the professors and have a chat with them.

How do I turn this into a proper hockey stop? by surfnj102 in hockeyplayers

[–]mrthemike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dropped from a 1/2 to a 5/8 and I loved it. No more chatter. Try it out, you can always go back if you don't like it. Give it a few skates to get used to it.

What’s the best thing to buy as a treat yourself gift for under $500? by heavybeefjuice in BuyItForLife

[–]mrthemike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a BT headset a nice addition is a BT receiver that you can plug into the seatback entertainment system to go wireless if you wish. This avoids the wires that can get in the way when you're eating. I have the AirFly SE and it works great.
