So does this mean the FZ-07 is going to get an option for ABS? I really dig that bike but if I am going to buy a brand new bike vs the old shitty ones I have had in the past I would like it to have ABS.

Came here to say this. Sometimes the posts are sad, sometimes they are downright hilarious. I wish the would post how much trouble each person got in for carrying an inert bomb onto a plane though.

Yeah, I have 1/2” 3/8” and 1/4” torque wrenches and I agree having the correct one is the most important aspect but sometimes a bolt in a weird place where they won’t fit (yes I’m talking about you rear bolts on the valve cover of my old jeep) or requires more torque than my smaller wrenches can do. Thats where my…

My best solution to this has always been to put the socket in a vice, set the torque wrench correctly, and then give it a couple pushes till you get the click. The whole point is to get a feeling for how much force it requires. Next I grab a ratchet at the same distance and then do my best to get a similar torque with…

I traded my BRZ for a Wrangler and then put armor on it. It still gets bumped but I feel way better about that knowing that everytime it happens my steel does more damage to their plastic. Soon you will be able to tell which cars not to park next to based on which ones have D-Ring shaped gouges in their bumpers.

I see a lot of newer mustangs commuting to Redmond but very few in the city. All the owners must be in the burbs.

It was flashing bud, first time I had seen any check engine light do that. Let me google that for you...

Oddly enough I have some old confederate money. I can confirm, they don’t accept.

I have this dock. It’s pretty good for the money. Also, if you go at the landing spot with a razor blade it will work with a lot of cases.

No. They were not all electric. Not even in the book. The jeeps were all gas.

I love mine too. It’s awesome in the kitchen for playing music and setting timers hand free. That said, no way would I pay 180 for that luxury. 99$ was appropriate but nearly double that would be a deal breaker for me.

I know a mostly blind guy (legally at least, but he can still kinda see). A cut off wheel let go on his grinder, broke through the face shield and took out his eyes. I always keep my face out of line with the wheels now.

The first thing I get rid of on my angle grinders is that stupid guard, it just gets in the way of doing things. Wear nice leather gloves and a face shield and you are all set from a safety standpoint.

but we’re just motivated enough to slice our own bread! One step back, one step forward.

Thats cool to know that it was made by a student. I saw advertisements for the app at a bus stop a few weeks ago and assumed the city was paying for someone to develop it.

When I first moved to Seattle I tried using gmaps for getting around on public transit. Little did I know the busses run a consistent 20-50 mins late(I’m used to using the T in boston). It was terrible till I discovered the bus app the city supports called onebusaway, which is phenomenal at telling users how close the…

Okay, so how about a best second bike. I have had several cheaper craigslist bikes in my life, but I want to get something shiny and modern. I've been cross shopping the FZ-07 and the Duke 690. Best second bike?
