  1. I seen that a few months ago and though WHY! they claim it handles like a sportbike but has double the front end grip.
  2. also not sure if this is up your alley, but Garmin is making dash cam GPS units now. called a Nuvi cam but theres all kinds of cheap dash cams available http://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?Ntt=dash+cam
  3. go pro knock offs can loop video. at least the Eken h9r can. I got one at microcenter for $39 before christmas. comes with 2 batteries which is cool and has a remote you put on your wrist to control it. has built in wifi to stream to your phone. according to all the accessories makers on amazon it can use all the gopro mounts. not a bad camera if you can find one under $60 . it comes with a ton of mounting hardware and a dual battery charger can't charge while in use though. so I guess this isn't an option for you.
  4. check for any hot wiring too. or throw a multimeter on it to read the resistance (ohms). they should have close to 0. older R6's would melt the connectors at the regulator. I've seen guys relocate their regulators to a place that gets more airflow. some I've seen put fans from computers on the. lol it worked. probably not in the rain though. knock on wood I've never had these issues. my 03 R6 battery lasted 10 years. no shit. never put it on a tender or charger. but I had to buy one for my R1. it has a parasitic power draw and the battery is half the size they were in my R6. so I zap it up every few weeks.
  5. I would start with water and sunshine. finish with oil threads and politics.
  6. for the record, I don't use their password manager. I use last pass. want to use dashlane but they're not interested in making one for linux. I use linux on my desktop for 99.9% of everything. windows 10 on the laptop I use to flash my bike etc. and only that. since I seen that people should steer clear of lenovo computers because of spyware crap in them. some install from the bios into a fresh install of windows. I was going to toss this brand new fucker in the trash when I read this.
  7. microsoft has announced there will never be another windows after 10. this is it. I'm not making this shit up. google it. I guess I'm lucky as nothing seems broken with mine. and I have the fall creators update.
  8. Yeah well yamaha has built bikes for a long time and still rushed the R1 into production. Trans recall, cranks snapping, valve springs breaking, timing chain rubs engine block and a few other issues. Ironically my 03 r6 was flawless
  9. The motorcycle industry is dying. No surprise companies are pulling the plug on some of their bikes. Trumph has discontinued the daytona 675. Honda the 600 rr.
  10. im surprised Mcycle superstore is still in business. Their website is garbage for looking up parts. Another site that im surprised is still in business is riders discount. 0 organization of parts. And they want you to call to order shit.. lol. Just a matter if time before they fold up
  11. Just bought a traeger timberline 1300 food is amazing. And being able to control it from my phone is awesome. If you dont have one of these youre not cooking right http://www.traegergrills.com/shop/grills/timberline-series/timberline-1300/TFB01WLB.html
  12. The eastwood welders seem nice. They have a lot of videos on youtube showcasing their welders and using them in how to's. If I could get a miller for the same price or slightly more id get the miller. Btw, i love millers welding shirt with the leather arms. And their gloves. They fit so good it improved my welding
  13. The optima does has good low end torque too. 269 i believe
  14. forgot to mention it's a 2013 the 4cyl turbo has 275hp. more than her old Z28 lol
  15. Dont knock a kia. My mom has an optima turbo 4cyl. Can surprise you with how good it pulls. I actually find it to be a well made car that drives great. The seats feel great to me. they are leather and heated. Id prefer cooled seats in the summer though. Why i stick to cloth.
  16. Not bad considering my R1 averages 28 mpg
  17. I don't want to know about lost grampa in a white buick lic plate 3MTA3
  18. You can mix it with water and put it in a spray bottle. Mine came with a spray bottle
  19. The catchall phrase “Stoddard Solvent” is no longer adequate to tell the proper story. WD-40® does indeed have 50% mineral spirits, but they are refined and purified for specific characteristics needed to meet today’s performance, regulator https://wd40.com/cool-stuff/myths-legends-fun-facts
  20. No its mineral spirits. Have a wif of both. Real tire lube actually works better too.
  21. Wd40 is mostly mineral spirits. Aka paint thinner. Dont use it on rubber. Just buy no mar tire lube or call a local napa. They often carry tire mounting lube
