  1. Ohlins swapped. Lesson learned: 1 of 5 shock/linkage bolts has slight interference molded into the undertray to hold it in if it comes loose. Yet you can force out without loosening the subframe but impossible to angle it back in. Same eye to eye as old shock, lighter spring(according to racetech) same preload (sportrider base settings)seat feels a bunch higher. Don't know the shock's history, looks clean, appeared to have thick assembly/rebuild grease on it. Bought it from a failed project bike stash sitting for a few years. linkage bearings/seals looked good added some phil's oil. Old shock's roller grease was thick nearing dry @ 28k miles.. don't appear to have seals... Did I ride though a sharknado or something? Plastidipped the spring. How's anyone gonna know I have a new shock if its the same color/95% the same? Painter's tape is useless around bends Stuck a bar through the hollow swinger pivot with jackstands for the first time. Didn't check the bushings.

  5. Bought a new mouse. The wheel axle had a burr catching and would squeal after a few spins. Opened it up lubed it and bent the Price is Right clicker out. Smoothest mouse wheel ever.
  6. There's only one rule: New is always better.(unless it's new from walmart)
  7. Gold Thursday- Ordered an Ohlins. Bought a 2 liter bigger plastic tank as a replacement for mine that's ethanol expanded and hits the triples/head bearing seal. Was waiting for a metal one but couldn't pass up the price.
  8. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-38153434 Australian man's 'breast implant' find revealed as jellyfish. +Rep to whoever grabs a jellyfish and lets me know how much it feels like an implant.
  9. Watching sleep deprived people isn't too fun. I'd rather see better bikes than something rushed in 3 days.
  10. Devil's advocate, the used FS market is more flooded. Suspension is great on roots,rocks and ruts as well. I've been riding 20 years Had a$3500 bike in y2k dollars and paid $600 for my current giant anthem.
  11. I thought I heard (recently, after they said he only had a walmart knife)there was one victim recovering from getting shot. friendly fire?

  13. There was black smoke ahead as I was driving round the outerbelt the other week. The Budweiser factory was having a team building side by side driving and one was engulfed in the parking lot.
  14. Did he have enough time to pull the fire alarm, go get his car then drive at them, just a coincidence, or another accomplice?
  15. "active shooter situation" the name for anything(mass attack) with the standard police response?
  16. How many win10 users actually use the edge browser?

  18. I hit the ground. Found some knots, swelling, and raspberries once feeling came back. Chainring Jesus at the top of barb wire
  19. "all settings" went fubar. no response on action center and from start menu flashes open then disappears. killing windows explorer process resolved it.
  20. Were you giving it pedal when trying to start it. maybe flooded and why ether didn't catch?
  21. Different helmets(+shell sizes) can act different off different bikes' windscreens. A touring screen(laminar lip, double bubble) might be a cheaper experiment? Run without the screen to see if it changes any? Then get any helmet you want.
