yeah this is what i did this morning, I'm probably just talking myself into more gadgets and feeling like im making progress without actually moving

I have two EVs

window vac crew, is Karcher the only way to go or can I get the £20 one from Screwfix?

our most-condensated window is (annoyingly) very textured leaded glass so I'm not sure how well any option would work to be fair. Maybe we should just have it over-glazed outside or something

haven't given my new mountain zoa a proper run yet, but has had a fair bit of night time riding around town. Super warm but totally usable for riding, though i haven't had one of the og zoas so can't compare with that. The only downside I have is that since its one of the most valuable items of clothing I own, I'm a bit scared of actually using it. I'll get over that as we head into winter though no doubt

I also ordered it the afternoon of release day and it arrived the following morning, so strong work from DPD and Albion/3PL

prob go straight to the full upthepunx padlock then

what sort of jewellery have you been losing? I've never lost a circular bar bell, for eg, but i lose the ball off the end of labret bars all the time coz i can't do it up as tight as the shop. septum isn't one ive had issues with in the same way, even though i fiddle with it far too much

I like to use toolbox drawer liner for this, or a self-healing cutting mat

They just nudge you to play in differnet ways

I definitely agree with this, I'd been playing my LP for a bit instead of the mustang and while I think I play technically better on the LP, I think I make more interesting choices with the mustang. I have a reverend for my other tuning, which is fairly gibson feeling - so basically my goal now is to have my gibson pair and a fender pair, and ill use whichever i fancy on the day. but possibly I'm just talking myself into buying a jazzmaster

I spent last night trying to get my head around the whole fingerboard radius, neck profile thing. I've never really given it much time before but I know I really like my 70s mustang for left-hand feel. I'm now vaguely in the market for something similar to keep in a different tuning, so trying to figure out what qualifies. I fear i will have to go and waste a nice guitar shops time for several hours

Opposite end of the amp spectrum, but I used my new (to me, courtesy of Sheppz) Orange Terror Stamp for my rehearsal last night. Took my Tiny Terror as well for loud times comparison and I’m pretty sure the Stamp is louder, and stays clean at a higher volume too. Might sell the head to fund a Victory or something…

Having trouble with my fuzz pedal in “live” situations. Using it for lead lines, pushed almost to the limit, and it sounds like lower volume. I think it’s just an eq thing but potentially it’s not workable as part of my pedalboard and will be stuck to just recording work

I recently had a thing where I started a new project after my band of 11 years wound down. all that old material was v much a real reflection on my thoughts and feelings, but the new stuff managed to not be that and everything happened much easier. Except I wrote something I was really proud of, am now working on more stuff and have lost the 'don't really care' vibe which was so helpful initially. kinda irritating.

if it makes you feel any better, I had to kind of DIY this same thing last winter but on steel downpipe to the hacksawing took ages. Also the compacted sludge was for almost 2 metres. The elbow now just chucks water and moss all over the place. I'll sort it all properly one day, maybe.

could there be an argument that they're using your photo for commercial purposes and they don't have the relevant license to do so? They sell advertising space, so more content = more traffic and they are presumably doing these scrapes as a sort of longtail strategy to acquire clicks

a mate has a 60s triumph set up like this, which I always enjoy

nah i'm fully into it

HARD agree. we sell a lot of pro race silencers, coz they're cheap, but they sound horrible, wayyyy too loud. G&G are trying to figure out a way to replicate a flat track one-off silencer they made for us, but in a lower cost and street-friendly version. should go straight on OEM or most replacement headers [for the RnineT]. It's going to be stubby though so i don't think I'll run it on my bike.

sorry for derailling the thread a bit MV!

I've never had much luck with those but I don't have any metalworking skills so your experience will be a bit different!

I'd be tempted to try a bit of extra pipe length on the end of the header to increase flow rate, wrap that baffle in some wadding and fix it inside the new 'silencer' and see what happens. Reduced internal diameter of the baffle would increase flow rate further, I think.

my moto client explained all the exhuast length thing to me the other day, which would be much more helpful here if I could remember it properly - a big part of it was how inline 4s etc work well with a shorter pipe and the v-twins ducati etc race need a longer one, because of gas starvation in the cylinder or something. The analogy with the 4s was also that theyre basically 4 single cylinders stuck together, rather than the twins which sort of work together/in opposition to each other. So I think this means a little silencer should be fine here, as long as you have the right gas flow rate.

We're actually developing a silencer at the moment, to try and come in at the 250-300£ price mark as this seems to be massively underserved. It basically goes from the EMGO/Aliexpress things, to the entry level ProRace ones which suck, to £500 ones from Arrow, Unit Garage etc.

Cheaper than the guy we’ve been using (West Sussex, as I think you are), he is £300/day. Though he raised the rate twice during the process of our kitchen refurb last year and I feel like that’s pretty punchy now

Didn’t realise I could monetise my problems like that

This is doing nothing for my confidence re. finally sorting my jeds peds kit haha

evans didnt stock giant, inaccurate, straight to jail

Peredur...both are awesome people, I believe Perry once rode around stages of the tour while also technically on tour with Faithless

and freestanding can prob be taller than I was able to do, so my mtbs could have gone on it... goddamn.
