I don’t have a car because I’m a college student, but I do have a 2006 Suzuki GZ250, a small cruiser motorcycle. It’s my first vehicle that I own. I absolutely love riding it, even though a Prius is faster, this feels much faster because it’s a manual transmission motorcycle, and gets better mpg.
Unfortunately, I need to replace the battery soon as it seems to have some parasitic loss when not ridden for several days. I want to DIY it to save money, but I can’t unscrew this impossibly tight worn screw mounting the cover to access the battery.
I currently have a '06 Suzuki GZ250. I got it 3 months ago and already have put 1600 miles on it.
I’m already getting the itch for a faster motorcycle, though. I first test rode a Harley Davidson Sportster 48, which was fun and tourquey but kind of heavy and not as comfortable as I expected (Harley = cruiser = comfortable so I thought). I then made the decision (mistake?) of test riding a Triumph Trident 660, and holy crap that was so much fun, I need it in my life lol even though I can’t afford it.
I also had an unexpected “adventure” getting stuck in the mud recently when trying to go off the beaten path. Dual sports have way too high seat heights for me but maybe I should get an ADV bike?
God help me the day I try a supersport bike. Make sure I don’t submit to squid-dom…
The uncomfortable part about the Sportster was actually how unexpectedly aggressive the riding position was. I expected laid-back similar to my GZ250 which is also a cruiser.
I am starting to think of ADVs as the SUVs of motorcycles. Usually, big, tall, off-road capable, comfortable, not particularly sporty, expensive, and trendy.
At the moment I am extremely budget-conscious so I’ll be sticking with my 250 unless I find a smoking deal for another motorcycle. Currently I’m a college student that doesn’t really need a motorcycle, but I really wanted one. Where I will be able to get a nice motorcycle is if I can spend my future car budget on a motorcycle instead…
I used that for a while specifically because of that feature. But I switched to uBlock origin when I found out it could block those autoplaying videos as well.
To me, 30fps is unbearable in fast paced games, but okay in slow paced games. This is a slow paced game, so I’m fine as long as the fps stays above 24 with a 1% low of at least 20.
I’ve noticed when I browse YT on Firefox with uBlock origin (usually for non-YPP channels or game OST videos I don’t really want anyone profiting off of), everything grays out after a second. Currently I can click f to go full screen and remove that, but I don’t think this workaround will work for long.
