Sorry for the weird formatting was trying to make a bullet point list

2017-08-17 16:54:50 UTC  

Sounds like you got it.

2017-08-31 13:20:21 UTC  

Is anyone well versed in motorcycles?

2017-08-31 13:47:59 UTC  

@here ☝🏻

2017-08-31 13:49:17 UTC  

What about them?

2017-08-31 13:54:48 UTC  

Just got a kawasaki ninja 500 and had some questions about the brakes

2017-08-31 13:55:16 UTC  

What issues are you having

2017-08-31 13:57:39 UTC  

No issues yet, I just done even know how to tell if I should change the fluid and when it's time to change the brakes

2017-08-31 13:59:28 UTC  

You can use brake fluid testing strips to see if your fluid is still serviceable. Also, you can look at your brake pads, if they look to be getting thin or almost touching the rotor, its time to replace them.

2017-08-31 14:01:13 UTC  

If you feel pulsations when you apply the brakes, that's a sign its probably time for new rotors, and most likely pads.

2017-08-31 14:03:17 UTC  

Okay, I'll probably have more questions soon, I have changed the oil and the coolant already and I'm getting my motorcycle endorsement on Friday, I failed the damn written test twice:( I'm motorcycle dumb I guess haha

2017-08-31 14:04:16 UTC  

I still need to get mine, I need a bike so i have something thats gets better than 12mpg. Lol

2017-08-31 14:04:58 UTC  

That's really all I drive down here, my motorcycle

2017-08-31 14:05:58 UTC  

Its not usually motorcycle weather where im from back in WA so i never bothered. But here in the south its almost a year round option.

2017-08-31 14:09:14 UTC  

Yes exactly why I got one

2017-09-01 01:10:18 UTC  

my bike gets like 50mpg when I ride normally, 70 when i cruise at 70mph on the freeway.

2017-09-03 18:03:42 UTC  

@Yuma County#0597 hey bro just curious how's your CDL training going?

2017-09-04 23:57:54 UTC  

is this road legal?

2017-09-04 23:58:01 UTC  

or a good deal?

2017-09-05 00:48:10 UTC  

It's legal, as long as the lights work. You have to be able to clear a speed bump, all the lights and safety equipment has to be on the car and working. Nothing can be hanging off it.
If the frame isn't bent and that's just body damage, for the price it's a good deal.

2017-09-05 13:52:56 UTC  

Is there a topical anesthetic available over the counter?

2017-09-05 15:06:54 UTC  

@Deleted User It looks like there are a few, but from what I've seen a cream called "LMX" may be the strongest. It looks like it's available at Walmart, Walgreens, and CVS over the counter.

2017-09-05 15:08:03 UTC  

Thanks brother. I meant to post this in <#322712621503479809> lol but you've answered my question so no need to move it

2017-09-06 00:44:33 UTC  

@Deleted User concerning that wrecked car. If it is in your state an your purchasing it is one thing but typically if you purchase a car from out of state and it has to be brought into your state they will have to inspect it and all of the lights and turn signals Horn cetera will have to work in order for you to get a title on it in your state

2017-09-07 03:10:27 UTC  

Just wanted to thank @Deleted User for picking up the slack! haha

2017-09-07 03:47:56 UTC  

And just a note, most newer cars have their oil filter on top of the engine
And newer cars have an inner cylinder that is the filter with an exterior lid that you do not dispose of, just snaps onto the lid, very easy

2017-09-07 03:50:28 UTC  

So you're just changing out the filter element, then?

2017-09-07 03:50:39 UTC  

Yes

2017-09-07 03:50:47 UTC  

nice

2017-09-07 03:51:07 UTC  

The process is very simplistic and avoids an unnecessary mess from dripping oil

2017-09-07 03:51:26 UTC  

yeah, I like it. I haven't encountered that yet but it makes sense.

2017-09-07 03:51:32 UTC  

o-ring gets replaced as well, comes in the box

2017-09-07 03:51:36 UTC  

that just sits on the lid

2017-09-10 19:32:49 UTC  

@Deleted User Why not connect your neg cable to the dead neg terminal?

2017-09-10 19:35:45 UTC  

I was always taught it was safer to do it that way.

2017-09-10 19:36:08 UTC  

Supposedly there's a non-zero chance of a battery explosion if you connect directly to the terminal.

2017-09-10 19:36:14 UTC  

That will severely hamper your game

2017-09-10 19:36:16 UTC  

Ah ok gotcha
