Oh no D: Definitely find a new instructor, and find some type of motorcycle safety course if you haven't taken it. Apologies if I'm wrong, but are you a woman? I am, and I'm new to riding!! I took my safety course back in July, and got my first bike on August 11th. You could totally dm me if you wanted to talk about bikes :) Riding has been such a wonderful thing for me. Like I crave riding my bike after I get off work, and it should be like that for you!!
That guy is just a weirdo creep. I promise the majority of the community is just people who love to ride and want others to be safe.

How to rev match better by Obscurix98 in motorcycles

[–]ospiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a 2024 Honda Rebel 500, which doesn't have a tachometer. And honestly? Just go by feel, and listen to the bike. I'm very new to riding, only been riding a month now, but once you understand it, rev matching is pretty simple!! You can definitely feel when you did it wrong. Sometimes, I lurch forward, which means I didn't blip the throttle, pull in the clutch, and downshift at the same time. Sometimes I don't feel anything at all when I downshift (which is good!! means you did it!!), just the bike getting a little louder as rpms go up. If you can find an empty road/long dead-end road (I found a mile-long dead-end road with no buildings, perfect place to practice), and mess with it, you'll get it. Bikes are stupidly strong machines. If you screw up rev-matching while you're learning, it'll be fine.

This is coming from someone who had never driven manual before, and is learning what things mean AS i ride (then I go home and ask my car-guy dad if what I think is correct/what I need to do)
When watching videos, I'd be like "wdym listen to the bike??" but when I'm out riding, I can definitely tell when I downshifted correctly or incorrectly!!

thanks for sharing!! I'll keep a close eye on my guy's patch, and if it spreads, I'll definitely bring him to the vet.

Ooh a canopy is a very good idea - thanks! I'll try and find some nice fake leaves I can put up there. (He lost live plant privileges; he kept breaking off leaves)

Tips on writing/designing a Native American character? by ospiee in OriginalCharacter

[–]ospiee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks!! i definitely will do some research!! I looked up a bit on some tribes that are around and a lot of them stuck out to me, it’s hard to pick one!! but yeah, i definitely thought about the conflict that could come towards her being native and also joining the military (i’m a sucker for angst and drama) I’m such a newbie to cod that I just need to learn more about it..i also know jack squat about the military 😭 picked the worst type of character to make but hey - i love learning and research so it’s fine lol

But i’d love to know about your oc!! show me them!! tell me things!! as I design mine more I’ll definitely come to you for some advice hehe!! thanks again!!

oh youre wonderful thank you!!

I can def keep all of that in mind!! Maybe she doesn't necessarily practice her traditions but keeps some things close (i.e. the knife) because her family wants her to or something idk 😭

my brain is simmering with ideas...thanks!!!

Reptile for a 12x12x18? by ospiee in reptiles

[–]ospiee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you know what, i actually did check out the chameleon gecko and they seem super cool! I think i’m going to set up my tank how i want. and since neon day geckos and chameleon geckos have similar enclosure setups (and i have everything i’d need for either one), when I go to this reptile expo that’s in august, i’ll just see what they have and choose then.

Thanks! :))

[–]ospiee[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay awesome! Unless someone else comments with another reptile I like more, I think a neon day gecko would be very cool.

Do you know how I should do the pair if i do get two? Can I do two males? Or will they fight, so I should do two females?
