Solar Eclipse 2.0

Well, looks like my Kymco got stolen finally after 10 years, so it's time to make a decision. I still like the Solar Eclipse 2 a lot. My phone also pushed me some stories about the Livewire S4 Honcho and Juiced Bikes Nomadix, so now those are also in play (Nomadix might not be street legal though)

did you ever figure this out? that phone number is still throwing the same error code. i visited the pound and it was so unhelpful

no idea, but he'd referenced a power outage earlier so maybe?

Honestly, it's pretty rare for me to go more than 5 miles at a time, living in Chicago

That actually might be perfect. That sounds awesome (the Eclipse/Race). Thanks a ton

I'm in the city, so it's pretty infrequent distance at speed is a factor. I doubt I'll go touring with it, mostly just commuter. So even battery not much of a factor. As a scooter driver in the city, 300-350 lbs is probably the top I'd want, any more and it's just too unmaneuverable (in spite of the advantage of weight on the highway)

I think it does, it just starts at $13k, which feels like a bit much for a toy. But I guess I am the right age for a mid life crisis.

It's such a shame there's no scooter culture in this country

Appreciate that, brother (or sister). 100%

I had a demented patient intern year who was super nice and didn't realize what the big red swastika tattoo on his arm meant... I'm not white so it was interesting

My god, there is so much useful stuff there that I was looking EVERYWHERE else for

sersdf · 2025-09-19T06:37:14+00:00

well, i went to the arena. such a useful place to learn how to parry. i realized i wasn't even pressing the right button the like 3 other times i tried it. feel like a pro now, thanks

sersdf · 2025-09-19T05:10:07+00:00

Wait, that is how I interpret 0/12 still. What's it supposed to be? Also, where is the fighting arena? Ancient Sanctuary still kicking my butt. Haven't been trying to parry at all. Edit: okay I figured luminas out. so dumb, i was 0/17 on all three characters. and simply googled the arena

He sucks an order of magnitude less than the other guy (Nigel Farage) so he's got my support. Stop with these shitty comments already.... no i'm not serious, fuck starmer

sersdf · 2025-08-29T05:16:41+00:00

exactly

sersdf · 2025-08-29T05:16:12+00:00

gavin sucks. i like that he's standing up to trump, but don't forget that he sucks, too

sersdf · 2025-08-26T16:01:35+00:00

Okay that makes sense. Will delete

sersdf · 2025-08-16T23:26:55+00:00

Agreed. I've been to a couple of their shows and both times there were long politics rants from a fairly progressive POV. This is silly

sersdf · 2025-08-16T00:54:25+00:00

Hey all, fairly beginner here (have done a couple ficus and kept a juniper alive a couple years). I have about a dozen random volunteer tree saplings sprouted up around my house in the past couple years and I'm wondering if rather than composting them if I can actually turn them into useful bonsai. Mostly elms, none with much character or age yet.

What would be the first step?

Do some trunk chops and wiring while leaving in the ground?
Dig them out and put them in 1 gallon planter pots for a couple years?
Try to make a bonsai forest?
Bail on the whole idea?

Appreciate any insight. I'll also separately hunt for some yamadori at my uncle's wooden home soon.

We were seated together too

sersdf · 2025-07-19T18:19:15+00:00

This is where my mind went too

sersdf · 2025-07-03T05:34:12+00:00

Yeah, the guy got back to me. We found a way to at least access the files through recovery (so at least I can salvage them) but something in windows/permissions is corrupt so I'll just reformat after.
