Living in Wisconsin, I basically never lane split. I think if I did someone would take it upon themselves to do the lord's work and run me down in a loving truck. I do enjoy sidewalks and grass though.

I'm looking for a little Japanese enduro under $500 this winter. I just want to find something I can relentlessly beat the ever loving poo poo out of.

I had a dream last night that it was 65 degrees in Wisconsin. I practically woke up in tears to 0 degrees.

I found out the other day that trying to machine something on a lathe for the first time ever is not fun. But now I've used a lathe for 2 hours total so I might not gently caress it up the second time around.

I just ended up with a lovely surface finish and a hosed up turned diameter because I am a mongoloid and I can't use a DRO without something going wrong. Edit: those are two separate pairs of problems and results Yerok fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Apr 8, 2014 |

My buddy's older brother just bought a GSXR 600 for his first bike. He bought a full face helmet and but no other gear, and he keeps mentioning how WI isn't a helmet law state anymore. Also he just got his moto temps today. I give him a week before crashing.

I refuse to believe there is any motorcycle with more comfortable cruising suspension than a supermoto. So much travel to just soak up any bump in the road.

Today I went to change from the left to the right lane on a lazy 25 mph street because someone who needed to go 15 over was riding my rear end. As I'm looking over my shoulder into the right lane with my signal on and beginning to merge into a two-car length open spot, a middle-aged Corolla driver decided they needed the spot more than me. I just gave up, maintained my lane, dropped a gear, and left the traffic behind me. Never before has someone literally driven into me while I was changing lanes.

I took the spark arrestor out of the Yosh RS2 on the DRZ. It sounds loving hilarious. It's not really any louder, just now it sounds like a giant angry bee instead of the longest fart. Loud pipes don't save lives they just make me laugh inside my helmet.

There are about 2 shops in my area that aren't total poo poo and one of them I only use for tire mounting. Thankfully the second is owned by a friend of mine and has the machinery to do engine builds/etc real cheap

I just want it to be above freezing. I hate Wisconsin so much. It was a scorching 36 degrees last weekend so I took my 80 and 125 out to gently caress around in a corn field.

If you feel like lowsiding in an icy corn field you can come down to south central WI whenever.

It's like the shittiest, tiniest superduke. Also, I recently bought a pair of 900RR's from someone named Erik out by East Troy. I like to pretend it was Erik Buell himself, which somehow makes it funny when I discover things like shattered oil pan drain plug bosses, cut charging system wires shorting on the frame, etc. Yerok fucked around with this message at 04:58 on Oct 6, 2015 |

If you're taking the time to grind the heads off the rivets you should be able to just pry the garbage link off with a screwdriver.

Collateral Damage posted:Well it's already pretty much ruined, so he should just put an IED in it for the next time they try. Cut the end off an extension cord, and make a nice little circuit with the ignition switch or the levers. You might actually get them with those extra 120 volts!

Skid lids can be DOT/Snell approved. I used to think the same thing but I've found that I've gravitated towards solid white helmets.

I never put both feet down on anything. I have a 28" inseam so I just hang off a bit to the left side and put one foot down. Even with a passenger it's fine.

I broke my "no toy cars" rule that I've obeyed for the last 5 years and traded a really lovely Fireblade for a cheap BMW E21. Now I have this loving car to deal with and I'm considering moving back across the country and I'm trying to decide if I should just sell all my vehicles and drive the truck or buy a new (used) trailer to haul it home. The general contactor I've been working with lost their main source of contracts so I haven't worked in a while and I'm freaking out about adding to my debt. I also can't decide if I should sell my DRZ and YZ125 or keep one or both. Don't try to read these things like there is a logical sequence, because there isn't. I'm losing my loving mind

I gave up on anything other than clear visor plus sunglasses. Although sometimes when you pull off for a stretch you lose your sunglasses forever and ride home blind.
