  1. Design criticism continues....
  2. Swapped my 400g elastomer saddle back to my 225g one 17.83lbs
  3. I think of knuckle protectors like knee pads. When they get bruised it triggers the nerves. May be hard to limp home in minor drops. I bruised my knuckles hitting the heavy bag and cringed everytime I pulled the brake yesterday. plus road rage fights.
  4. I wonder if a great training tool wouldn't be an I4 powered go cart with handlebar control & the same throttle action for people to feel how easy they can break traction on 4 wheels. Will be a moot point once we're all on self driving bikes.
  5. I got a cat to match my couch, it also matches Kroger bags. So whenever I reuse one I do double takes thinking the cat is sitting there.

  7. Accidentally heard this and got it stuck in my head for 2 days.
  8. "Starter bike" If you start at 1000cc where do you plan on going from there? You're only just below the absolute most powerful bikes available.
  9. 1 liter sportsbike will be more cramped than a smaller non sportsbike have a play at http://cycle-ergo.com/ I saw my first real life moto course by chance last weekend. One guy was on a tw200. Must have been right at the beginning they were waddling them around the parking lot leaning clutch/throttle feel. Is it required these days or did you want to skip the skills test?
  10. You can pick up anything at the warehouse in Delaware too.
  11. what do you expect with 1kg of hybrid tires? heavy oem tubes? I sell the old bike after getting the new one and comparing weights on everything for swap outs.
  12. "women who do not have this opportunity [to bring their children to work], that we should do something to talk about this." That's why it's called work. http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/05/10/527750579/senator-becomes-first-to-breastfeed-on-floor-of-australias-parliament
  13. 62 yo inseminated in Florida??? http://nbc4i.com/2017/05/08/mother-62-sentenced-after-six-year-old-beat-newborn-sister-to-death/

  15. I figure the DC at least gives me longer between battery jobs. And I may sleep through a basement alarm. CO detector I went from battery to the outlet type.
  16. it can happen. If one straight white male calls another straight white male gay(does that ever happen?) The ESWM will get sent to sensitivity training.
  17. The "thinking" gives it away.The Feeler statue is on the other side
  18. my deaf neighbor's was doing it,I could just hear it inside my place. I gave her a note and brought out one of mine and showed her the battery. She called the FD and they came out with 2 trucks and sirens. I assumed it was those I had no clue what kind of deaf equipment they had. (they left the bathtub running and left for the weekend once then spent a month in a motel while the ceiling drywall. was replaced. Next week it starts again. I went over with a multi meter and batteries and they all checked good but she did have those flashing exit strobes also networked but some mounted to the wall and others on shelves in the same room and unplugged. Nothing stopped it. I came home the next day and there was an engine on the street and 3 police cars in front. They said she calls with the text device but the call drops so they send out units. It's stopped beeping since then.
  19. If you're not supposed to unplug stuff buy yanking the cord, why are the plugs sized for 2 ladyfingers?
  20. I'm sure there are regulations but they find ways to make them different (left/right twist on)(receiving power -red blinking light?/ green solid light/ no light), uncomparable package specs, and so annoying it's no surprise people don't use them. I have 3 linked. replaced them all once since moving in Plus... The downstairs one is at the basement stairs so the mute is commonly slamming it to the bottom and replacing. Previous replacements were Kitchen False alarm prone or not compatible(3 wires +,-,trigger ??) not buying 3 of each to see what can handle boiling/cooking. Current down stairs made 2014 bought 2015 (10y warr.) gives low (backup)battery alert. battery is 9.6 volt new batteries don't resolve.vacuumed (@Casperd(can @tonik invent a verb)) compressed aired. Other 2 are 2003 no battery backup.working ok. One of the boxes @ menards was chirping. Almost all brands are made by kidde, their warranty requires sending it to them Including return shipping... I ran by home depot when I was driving by, still had the reciept by odd chance. Told them the warranty was pointless with both shipping and they agreed and refunded. I went with a QSI Electric Microprocessor(Claim no False alarms) Dual Sensor. Same price as the refund,all the boxes had a layer of dust on them... Installed with no beeping. Hit the test button to hear it, as my basement one is on the quiet side. It's loud. hitting/ holding the button doesn't mute it(seems to be a universal feature). You can almost hear the cycle repeat like the test is restarting detecting the button still pressed. Unplugged, pulled the battery took a break. Put ear protection on plugged it, back in. Hit the test button only one chirp no matter what I do now. just checked amazon, mixed reviews. They have several with the same case and features but different model #s..? https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Security-Instruments-MDS300B-Sensing/dp/B008J2DI0A http://www.homedepot.com/p/Universal-Security-Instruments-Hardwired-Interconnected-Smoke-and-Fire-Alarm-MDS107/203367034 Indoor grilling chicken for dinner stay tuned.
  21. Story sounded like it was overturned. I thing the "Ready" quote pushed it across their line.
