  1. apparently the alarms come pre triggered out of the box? but the powered on reset from the instructions doesn't work?. have to use generic hard unpowered reset found on internet. 3rd old basement alarm still went off when plugged in. Even with the interconnect wire chopped. Un powered reset didn't help, powered reset non networked did. All good for now until I update the old one or replace new one's backup batteries.
  2. no dice. 2 of same brand of new alarms will not plug in without undisablable continued alarms. MFH
  3. I tried to update another old detector with the same one i installed last and they go off again as soon as it's plugged no button pushing or unplugging them does anything. one plugged in and one in my hand both keep going off took em both down and threw them under towlels in a closset and after 5 min and damaged hearing they stop. Was just streaming a movie and the movie has a mega loud smoke alarm go off.. maybe the connectors that physically fit each detector expect to be wired different polarity? that would be dumb tomorrow i'll try with hearing protection or i'm having smoke detector batting practice.
  4. newer chain more often instead of running the most expensive chain longer? So the Shinkos don't feel outclassed were the chain tools made in japan? you cleaned the factory grease off before install then the internal grease came out?? Techs say its more if an anti shelf corrosion grease than lube and to clean/lube it at install
  5. If JT is sub par why don't DID chains break their sprockets? These days any top "brand" can take a crap in a box and slap a logo on it. Ref Shoei thread. Curiosity. Some brands rest on their laurels selling at the same price and others push development.
  6. Tsubaki's on it now, no endorsement?
  7. I want to try out one of these two x-ring chains Bikemaster made in Japan https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011J0QLLG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A1TFBK3C7LO58P&psc=1 claims better round rivets/ad shows quad rivets? JT sprockets.. made in Taiwanhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01I9SGTVI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 Plus a chained hookr
  8. did you pop the 500 mi cherry then? you just need to wear the crust off, they're probably softer underneath Were the bars as bad as claimed or were they designed to fit old man arms?
  9. can you warm up the gasket then close it and see if it resets and seals?
  10. TIL presoaking pasta absorbs water and you only need to heat it up to eat it.
  11. Get em all and a tire changer, Tonik shootout
  12. side soft % is what tipped me to roadsmarts RII In the CENTRAL AREA (75% of total surface) the high silica content compound, blended with a reactive polymer provides a BALANCED performance to offer Wet Grip, Stability and Mileage In the SHOULDER AREA (25% of surface) the fine carbon-black and resins compound provides the SPORT performance for Dry Grip at high lean angles
  13. The thinner you wear the carcass the more flexible they get at =<35 psi
  14. plastic bag, helium source- " suicide note that read there was "NO FOUL PLAY WHATSOEVER" regarding his death"
  15. Clinton investigator " dead".. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/republican-donor-kills-himself-talking-021051687.html
  16. I'm sure it's poor marketing, turns off people of the brands for life. Prolly better profit though- cheaper tire but no distributer/retailer markup.
  17. Pig iron would go with iron pony like peas and carrots.
  18. i was assuming rain again. And big IP purchases
  19. re 91(1) maybe go to IP after lunch so your car's not broken into. A teen was shot in the park to the SE of there yesterday.
  20. I was surprized to see july gets the most rain of all months. Just dries faster I guess.
  21. there are nutz on the outside and flats inside the sprocket on the pegs that go into the cush on these(brembo rims) not to mention the cush has it's own bolt on carrier. I did spin it up on a stand against a square. The chain is tight on the sprocket but 1/8" away in one spot My single gear cranks have always been tight fitting.
