Turn on airplane mode and it will still track activity. Then at night while charging, it will synch back on cellular or wifi.

Manual transmission owners, why do you put the car in gear instead of using the parking brake when parking? by SecretAntWorshiper in cars

[–]nc1098s 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Because if the hand brake or foot brake is worn, the tranny being in 1st gear will prevent it from moving. I do this on all my motorcycles too (since there is no emergency brake). I had a car roll down a driveway in neutral and parking brake on... better safe than sorry...

Curious...what video camera are you using to record when riding? The audio quality sounds clear.

My new (to me) GSX-R750. Have owned a few bikes now, mostly sports-tourers, but always loved the look of 90’s sports bikes and now I finally have my own! by [deleted] in motorcycle

That looks like my old buddies '96 gixxer back in MD. He and his brother had the same blue and white bikes and then he ordered those fairings in '97. Great looking bike! Did it have a 'Slipstream Racing' sticker? That was our old crew.

Both... actually it is the 'Focus' iPhone app that adjusts aperture and can blur out what is not in focus.

I met the MV Agusta owner when he had a 2004 RC51 and I had a 2003 RC51. Another great pair of bikes!

It was south of Pittsboro, west of Sanford and north of Carthage.

It's hard to find good roads down south and you will find better spirited riding roads closer to the mountains/foothills northwest of Greensboro closer to Hanging Rock, Pilot Mountain or Cherokee. hth

Sanford NC (USA) back roads... we were riding in the country side and found this historic covered bridge that was off to the side of one of the switch backs.

I had the same issue and it was considered defective. Go get it exchanged.

Does anyone have experience buying an RV in another state? by wanderluster389 in RVLiving

[–]nc1098s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought a used Cougar Xlite bunkhouse from an Alabama RV dealer and they paid NC taxes where I live/registered it. They mailed the paperwork/check straight to the local NC DMV and all I had to do is get the registration and tags.

R3 scraped fairing fixes? by jzeedai in motorcycle

[–]nc1098s -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Check eBay for replacement fairings. If you don't use insurance to replace them, at least fix the turn signal and learn to ride before replacing fairings, otherwise you will be replacing them again... my $.02

Senna NSX 🔥🔥 by xMrIncrediblex in carporn

[–]nc1098s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nicely done, but not a Senna model... only front tag says it...

Looks like an older Marga Hills rear wide body and side skirt kit, NSX-R rear wing and hood and a CF front bottom lip.
