    Dot 5 to Dot 4 (RBF 600)?

    Hi all. Did a quick search, didn't find much. I currently have Dot 5 in my R6. A friend/shop owner suggested I use Dot 4 RBF 600. What's the best way to make the switch? Searched online, found conflicting answers (from running cheap dot 4 through to flush the system first, to using soapy water...

    PPP loans

    I'm trying to figure out the answers, they are not as forthcoming as I would have thought. 1. For PPP loan forgiveness, the start date so to speak, is Feb 15, correct? So, if you laid off 10 employees on Feb 16, apply for the loan in late April, it's the number of employees you had on Feb 15...

    Help in hayward

    I am stuck in Hayward, parked at the police station. If anyone happens to be passing through this afternoon, please let me know, I think it's a simple issue where my battery connectors are loose so the bike was jittery before stopping and now I can't start it. Somehow I neglected to bring my...

    Chain grease cleaner?

    Searched, didn't see a thread. The underside of my tail, and my wheels, have lube stains from my chain. Car wash stuff just smears it around. Any thoughts on a good remover? Searched online, some people suggested Dawn dish soap. What about stuff like this...

    Helmet Reviews and Insight

    I searched, didn't see anything in the first couple of pages. After a couple of Arai helmets, I think I'm going to branch out, largely because Arai's are now like $750 for the "cheapest" models...!?! Some are close to $1000, even on "clearance." :laughing I'm looking for full-face, still...

    Anyone read "The Anatomy of Peace?"

    I posted about an empathy book I read a few months ago, which was eye-opening and has begun to change my life/outlook. Now, I'm reading... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SGET4BS/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Holy moly, another fantastic book. Anyone read it? To boil it down, it's...

    Are you empathetic?

    At my wife's request, I started reading a book discussing empathy. I'm like 7 chapters in, and it's my first book, so I don't want to sound like an expert or knowitall. I will say though, the book is ridiculously eye-opening. I look back at conservations I had in which I wasn't truly...

    Kratom?

    Anyone try? There's a local kava shop that sells kratom drinks, I tried one. Then, went to local head shop, bought some "Red Dragon" powder and liked it. Now, just ordered some "Maeng Da" online. Anyone else try? I find it has a calming, yet energetic effect, and is quite noticeable.

    Anyone take the FSOT?

    Anyone take the Foreign Service Officer Test? I'm considering doing so in October (I have a secret desire to work for the U.S. Trade Representative). The practice test is very easy. Anyone take this test, have any advice on study guides, etc.? Thanks! Sigh, I'm somehow a noob and put this in...

    Dryer Hookup quick question

    For a friend, I know nothing about wiring. He moved into a new place, trying to hook up dryer. See pic, the white is the ground from the old chord, Internet search tells him to "remove" that wire. Can he just fold it down and tuck it away? If not and cut/removal is necessary, how should he...

    Weed improves riding???

    Didn't want to post in General, since it seems like it'll be too serious of a discussion there. I had a few minutes while waiting for an appointment and came across this in a drunk-driving legal practice guide... The guide references a CHP study (although that study apparently just says weed...

    Schwinn 420 elliptical

    I have a Schwinn 420 elliptical, in excellent condition, for sale. Rather than joining a gym at $50+ a month (some places far more expensive), I use this elliptical and a set of adjustable dumbbells to stay in shape. I've always oiled the elliptical (it just needs some lithium grease every so...

    A few (shitty) pics... The guy in the panties/heels was awesome, the life of his section of the parade. I've got a few more, and some junky video.
