Ordered some GP Shorties for the Scout today. I'm preparing to coax myself past the "holy cow those are loud I can't live with that" reaction. I'm done agonizing about what to replace the hideous stock mufflers with. I figured $160. to try something new and see how it goes is worth it.

yeah, that was the first commute and a big day. seems silly, glad to read of similar nervousness from others. i think it's a good thing i learned to drive on standard transmission so i recall that fear of stalling out in the middle of a busy intersection; and how it fades as you get more...

commuted to work for the first time yesterday. bike probably has about 100 miles now, which means I've got about 100 miles. it was so dumb, one mistake i never anticipated...making a left through an intersection trying to catch the green left turn arrow. i must have been looking too straight...

so in the last few weeks I've passed my MSF rider course and gone down to the DMV. i'm all official now! still babying the bike significantly for the first 90 miles, per owners manual; which is also a convenient excuse to not really leave the neighborhood. there are quite a few open spaces and...

yeah, it was actually the dealer that coached me on how to go to Indian (polaris) to get some comp. i believe the issue is pretty widespread, you can read about it on Indian forums. i think the idea used to be like $200ish that the dealer could then send out the part for black powdercoating. the...

so yet another question for you guys. here's me with my bike! i'll have it delivered this spring since it's cold and lousy here for a few more months. see those shiny chrome exhaust heat shields? they were supposed to be black like everything else. with a minimum of complaining, Indian gave me a...

Anyone have any helmet advice or recommendations? I'm always a little leery when the prices of a given item vary so wildly. $120 - $1,000 seems to be the range one can easily spend. I've decided on full face, and basically want the safest one I can afford. Is there a value sweet spot I should...

Dudes I'm so pumped. I ordered a motorcycle even though I've never ridden one before. I'm 44 and finally quit drinking for good (it wasn't like out of control but took some time to decide to walk away), and was looking for a new skill to learn/adventure. I haven't been this excited since...

there's a strong correlation between rabid pro vaxxers and gun control proponents. they obsess over something so statistically insignificant that it can't honestly be that they care about public health or safety. they're pathetic individuals who embody the whole 'stop liking what i don't like'...

I have a genetic heart disease called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Basically some areas of muscle in the heart start thickening without cause. I'm kind of a rare case in that I have major thickening, but my outflow is not obstructed. The worst symptom I've felt is PVCs (palpitations...thousands...

this. i was honestly looking forward to the anesthesia for some quality sleep. combination of getting old and having 3 kids under 6, i suppose.

The lead guy breaching has his magnifier up. I don't think he'd do that. Is that the joke?

in addition to the Mike Maloney "Hidden Secrets of Money" videos...I highly recommend this series. Read this guy's bio. He's very reasonable, not a doom and gloom prepper. He covers a lot of what's been discussed here, concepts of primary, secondary, and tertiary wealth. The Crash Course

is it me, or is he wearing fake glasses?

TLDR, or: No Care, the right candidate won!

i love how simply exposing the truth of the DNC's corruption is "OMG The Russians HAXED our democratic process!!!!" never in my wildest dream could I have imagined the depth of the liberal meltdown. it's been beyond glorious...and it keeps getting better and better.

That was fucking beautiful. Exquisite.
