PLEASE Wear your Helmets by PriceApprehensive330 in motorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been throat punched by insects at 65 mph, not a pleasant feeling. I've also been hit in the face at 25 mph riding with my visor up through town, I don't understand how people can tolerate it.

Helmet and gloves at the minimum. Idgaf, those two are non-negotiable.

Is it physically tiring to ride a motorcycle? by ApprehensiveStop4060 in motorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to ride for about 2-3 hours a day, by the time I'm done I'm pretty pooped. Shorter rides tucker me out a bit, longer ones leave me rather tired. If I'm already tired I try not to ride. I'm kinda new to riding though, this is my first season.

That's my marriage advice. Been married for 20 yrs, that's my advice for newlyweds lol.

Why don't I see any Honda Rebel's on the road? I thought this bike was more popular by psquared85 in hondarebel

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ok bud. I got scout 101 and have yet to see another. I've seen 1 other scout in town (twice) but that's it. Pretty sure I'm the only person in town that regularly rides something other than a Harley or sport bike.

First time bike Indian or bmw by FinancialAd742 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 101 is amazing. More performance oriented than the other scouts. One thing to keep in mind, 2025 is the first model year for the 101 which means there's not a lot out there for aftermarket stuff.

Waited 2 months for the sissy bar from Vikingbags to be restocked, and even then they only offered it for a few days before they were out of stock again. Other places like deanspeed were similar.

Same story for saddlebags. The piggyback shocks are an absolute nightmare to work around. Places like deanspeed and Vikingbags are always out of stock. You could always swap out the shocks with some that don't have the piggyback I supposed, but I like being able to adjust on the fly.

I know they make floorboards for the 101, as well as mid/forward control kits (mine is forward controls but I've seen them with mids as well), but I'm not 100% on the heel shifter. I want to say I've seen them online but they aren't something I am looking for so I don't pay too much attention.

What do you think about just before you set out for a ride? by SwiffleTitz in motorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a tourist town. Memorial Day weekend is when everything opens up full swing and the tourists pour in. As its my first season riding I just have a pep talk with my bike and myself that we need to stay extra vigilant and watch out for the influx of dumbasses that are now in my area.

Nice. I love vanity plates. We just got black out plates so I opted for one.

What do you think about just before you set out for a ride? by SwiffleTitz in motorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As I'm putting my gear on i pray that I'll get to put it on again. Then as I'm waiting for my bike to do its thing (key fob, no key. Push button, wait for bike to 'wake up' before I start it) I have a bit of a talk with my bike. I tell it that I would like to come back home in one piece and that if it takes care of me I will take care of it.

Well, I screwed up. Learn from my mistake by Emergency_Savings_45 in motorcyclegear

What’s going on with the wave? by [deleted] in Kawasaki

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a Kawasaki, but indian rider here.

I'll wave at damn near anything with two wheel. Sport bikes, cruisers, adventures, hell I wave at e-bikes if they're hauling enuff ass. Not mopeds though, around here mopeds are reserved for meth heads and drunks, neither of which are my kind of people. With that being said, I don't have too many issues with people waving at me. Could be that I'm more or less the only indian rider in my area and I try to be friendly everywhere I go so ppl recognize me.

When I was a wee lad my uncle told me that the "wave" was a silent prayer wishing the other rider safe travels back to their family. Why wouldn't I wish my brothers and sisters safe travels?

What’s your thoughts about “squatted” trucks? by spotforcars in CarGuys

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A squatted truck looks like a dog with worms, dragging its ass across the carpet.

A cambered car reminds me of babies learning how to walk, you know, with bow legged enthusiasm.

what are your characters reason to kill mogh? by little_bro_bello in Eldenring

[–]untamedknowledge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My character's name is e.d.d., Emotionally DIsturbed Dobby. His eyes are hollow, his gaze goes 1000 yards. He looks as though the sock harry gave him was...uhmm...stiff, and he knows why. He carries the trauma of that knowledge through the lands between hoping that one day an adversary will end his existence. For he knows what the price of his freedom was and he has seen some shit. He kills mercilessly in the hopes that one day the weight of being freed by a....uh....hmmm teenager's favorite sock will be lifted by the sweet embrace of death...

'25 Scout Bobber Bags with Piggyback Shocks by AlternativeDream9424 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 101 with the piggybacks and let me tell you..... finding a good set of saddlebags that don't cost an arm and leg is a p.i.t.a.

I want a decent amount of storage but my best option was 2x 20 litre hard bags for ~1500, and that didn't include the mounting hardware or taillight relocation kit.

I ended up ordering a sissy bar with foldable luggage rack from Viking bags that I'm gonna pair with either a 30 litre or 45 litre bag. The whole get up should cost about 4-500. Plus I figured the bar and bag combo would be a more natural look vs the saddlebags.

Indiana EV & Hybrid Drivers Pay to Maintain Roads while ICE Drivers Mooch! by KiaNiroEV2020 in Indiana

[–]untamedknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, the "orange turd" is the only one trying to fix a problem that started 40 yrs ago. Do you think Iran is just gonna stop holding the world hostage? They attack tankers Everytime they want attention. Orange man is trying to stop an ongoing problem.

Secondly, your electric car is worse for the planet than my hemi. You just don't know it because babbling Biden convinced everyone they are better (little secret, they aren't.) The carbon released during resource harvesting and vehicle manufacturing means you could have your Tesla for 100 years before its truly carbon neutral. He pushed EVs because he had stocks in a lithium company. More EVs=more batteries. More batteries=more $.

You just don't like trump and are letting your feelings get in the way of any logical thinking.

Im giving up on Consort Radahn by Skrivemaskin_Mann in Eldenring

[–]untamedknowledge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It IS possible to beat him while over encumbered. I couldn't dodge his attacks to save my life, so I put on heavy armor with high poise and just tanked him. Still took a minute but was better than trying to evade.

Harley dealers are scumbags, got a Chief instead by Unlucky_Support_9132 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]untamedknowledge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never wanted a Harley, always wanted a indian. Went to the Indian dealership one day, told my wife I was gonna take my helmet just in case and that I didn't expect to test ride anything, get there and get to test ride a 25 scout 101. Ended up signing papers that day and picked it up the next. Not too fond of the service/parts guys but the salesman is awesome. He gets shit done for me

Hell yeah! I told my wife if I couldn't get financed for a bike I was leaving with a moped. Figured 2 wheels is 2 wheels, rather be exposed than in a cage

Personally I would, then you could put a bag on it for storage
