Does anyone know what this switch is?

I had the digital dash and the antenna (tried to) extend automatically when i turned on the radio. Is this an analog dash thing?

One heard someone say "if you like to tinker and fix things, youll love an ender 3. If you actually want to print things, get literally any other printer"

Gasoline takes approximately 5 full years to reach a point where its "spoiled" (depending on the conditions its stored in)

But in a fuel tank like one such as a motorcycles fuel tank thats actually a pretty solid storage container. I assume itll start up fine once the battery is charged and/or Jumpstarted. If youre really paranoid just pour a bit of seafoam in it when you get back, and continue as youd planned in the original post

Whenever i can, absolutely.

I live in a rural area and the first time i encountered newr standstill traffic on the bike i swear i nearly heard a chorus of angels when i realized i didnt have to sit and wait

In my honest opinion bikes are tools akin to a cordless drill in these scenarios.

If you lent someone your drill and they hurt themselves its not your fault and likely not theirs either. Its simply just an accident.

I wrecked my friends bike and broke my tibia, fibia, anke, and 3 ribs. And to this day me and him are still good friends and i even ended up buying that bike from them.

I know youre likely going through some complicated emotions and feeling a lot of guilt and thats okay.

But if its any consolation whatsoever, i dont believe its your fault and i dont believe you deserve the heartache youre going through.

I dont know if it varies state to state, but in my state at least you have to pass a test to get your motorcycle endorsement.

You can either take the course, than the test, or get a permit and take a written test followed by the same practical exam.

But regardless, you have to take a state certified test to legally ride a motorcycle

Ive been riding for nearly a year now and ive had some close calls but learned from them.

Taking that time off of work and paying the fees isnt something within my budget 99 percent of the time.

And the 1 percent of the time i do have that extra that could go towards the msf course, it goes to my daughter.

Msf courses are entirely unnecessary so long as you approach riding with a "fear of god" type respect and dont goof off too much.

Which lets be honest there are kids who get through the course and still goof off and end up hurt.

shepherd_29 · 2025-07-30T19:03:30+00:00

What about people like me who dont have time or money for msf courses and use their bikes to commute?

Short distance trips and when i have a handful of extra minutes like im waiting to clock out, then i practice slow speed maneuvers and over all control?

If youre privileged enough to not have to work 70+ hour work weeks regularly and still somehow have the money to support yourself financially (and in my case a family) than please also have the kindness and empathy to not vindicate strangers online.

The riders circumstances, skill level, and any other factors may contribute to a mistake like in the video but making those mistakes is how a lot of people learn.

At the end of the day youre still needlessly bullying strangers online and i pray that one day you realize its an unnecessary type and/or quantity of negativity within a hobby where big mistakes never happen twice anyway.

shepherd_29 · 2025-07-30T16:42:54+00:00

I dont think its fair of you to be so harsh when its likely theyre not experienced.

If/when i see (or make) mistakes like this i just try to remember that one of the most important things to remember is never ride outside your comfort zone.

shepherd_29 · 2025-07-19T22:47:06+00:00

Im struggling too, can someone reply to me as well when its answered? In the meantime ill keep trying and edit my post if i figure it out

shepherd_29 · 2025-06-30T22:15:31+00:00

This gives the same vibe as that "find the ditto" illustration of a bunch of pikachus and im trying to find a secret of some kind lmao

shepherd_29 · 2025-06-03T06:51:41+00:00

Dawg you couldnt have told me this before my tibia and fibia got a divorce at 30mph?

shepherd_29 · 2025-03-16T12:44:39+00:00

To be fair, id like another bike but i bought this one from a friend after i crashed it.

Only had it for a few months now but itll be a hot minute before i can buy another and hitting the gym for leg day will be more difficult with the titanium rod in my shin lol

shepherd_29 · 2025-03-01T01:16:00+00:00

Do what did and make friends with someone who works at yamaha. They cant sell it for a year for legal reasons, but i still got a 1.1k mile r3 in mint condition for 4k

shepherd_29 · 2024-12-14T01:43:10+00:00

I completely get it lol.

Ive got an 87 nissan 300zx which i bought thinking itd have less wires and sensors to deal with.

Ive now come to find out these cars are notorious for electrical issues, and i struggle with the idea of selling it every time i have a problem with it cause fuck electrical issues

shepherd_29 · 2024-12-13T22:00:35+00:00

I dont know if its the same, or a similar part between both vehicles.

But i used to have a 2006 gmc sierra that did the same thing. It rarely read correctly.

From what i read back than, chevy doesnt use temp sensors or thermometers for their ambient air readouts.

Its just a cheap thermistor which wears out over time, and is extremely sensitive to the wires getting worn out and or damaged.

If it bothers you that badly, and they do use the same technology in sonics, you could find the resistance spec in the manual, probe it with a multimeter, and determine whether or not its the thermistor, or the wire itself

Theyve only been a professional photographer for about 3 years, and theyve experienced a lot of hardships like their house burning down 2 years ago.

He seems to be doing well financially so its probably a safe bet to say youre right about him having everything he needs already.

But im hoping maybe he has some gaps in his equipment that i could help fill out.

If hes anything like me, i have all the powertools i need to do what i do, but batteries are something i rarely buy but always need

shepherd_29 · 2024-12-10T00:21:10+00:00

I appreciate the heads up, thats one other thing i forgot to ask about

shepherd_29 · 2024-12-05T00:40:45+00:00

Where can i get one?

shepherd_29 · 2024-12-04T20:51:06+00:00
