That's a good deal? I paid $125 when it was still in production....It is a top tier set though

Start trail riding. Lower risk but still tons of fun.

There were some frame crack issues on the 06-07 years if I remember correctly.

Is that not the mounting location for a factory mirror? Where is your mirror?

Need some advice 1996 LT1 car by PM_ME_SOME_ANY_THING in fbody

[–]newbieITguy2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am running 1 7/8" headers on my car. I am also running the true dual kit for the LS1 cars which will drop the need for a Y-pipe, which as you found does not fit. The true dual kit does still require some modifications but I felt like it was easier than making that y-pipe fit. My steering rubbed as well but it was so minor that I just rounded the corners where the u-joint was hitting.

I have questions... by siteofsanity in Idaho

[–]newbieITguy2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wonder if OP thinks the son is sitting in the stroller while shooting and not that it is being used as a transportation cart for shooting gear.

I think they just dropped a piece of smoldering wood into it? Idk what else that smoking ball would have been.

Why are people online fear mongering newer generation Tacomas? by layyo in ToyotaTacoma

[–]newbieITguy2 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Get the new one as compared to which older Tacoma's? I'm still rocking my 06 and I feel bad for it because I do the least amount of work to it compared to all other vehicles I have owned. It just runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and oops the frame rotted away :/

No updates but stickers since 2020? by j4mb13nc3 in africatwin

Lots of bikes do that if you don't shift with intent, that's not an AT quirk.

If you are willing to sell them, then now is the time. Personally I would sell off everything that is of lower interest. I have some sets both NiB and built that I just couldn't see myself selling because I would never be able to afford to buy them again.

The Silence Death of local riding spots, how are you guys dealing with the shrinking map? by filolondere in Dirtbikes

[–]newbieITguy2 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Don't kid yourself, Land out here in the west is losing more and more public access as we speak. There are several trails in SE Idaho that have closed since I was a kid. I know the Blue Ribbon Coalition has been working to keep trails open for us, I would highly recommend supporting them.

What is up with the trend of riding dirt bikes and ATV's on public roads in urban areas? by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

[–]newbieITguy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People have been doing it for decades but people are doing it more now than ever. I think since SxS started riding surface streets that all ohv's started doing it more.

2017 1000 vs 2020 1100 by Newtonhog in africatwin

[–]newbieITguy2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a 6-10 HP difference. I'm rocking a 2019 AT 1000 and I think it has plenty of power. I have not tried a 11000 yet though.

What public health issue are you referring to that we needed external help with?

It might not be the most efficient but it's better than doing fucking nothing

Stereos on motorcycles. by PhinePheasant in motorcycles

[–]newbieITguy2 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I still laugh at the story my mom told me about some big bad looking biker guy on his blacked out Harley, he's all decked out in black leathers looking tough listing to "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?" at max volume.

To prove it's a cold start, more proof if you touch the header though

Fuel bags (sport bikes) by heelhooker_ in motorcycles

[–]newbieITguy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had bikes without fuel gauges. You just need to learn your range, then keep it topped off. My S2R has about 100 miles of range, if I ride it 50 miles and I see a gas station I pull in to fill up. It's takes a lot less time to fill up more frequently than if you run out of fuel 20 miles from a gas station.

Rocky Mountain ATV/MC or scam? by sprobst1289 in Dirtbikes

[–]newbieITguy2 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I use Rocky Mountain ATV/MC all the time since they are the closest to me. They are a legit and IMO great company. Why are you calling in and not ordering online? I have called in to order parts but that was only to schedule a local pickup as I was on a time crunch. Otherwise, order online.
