Sometimes I bind my stomach at night so I'm not too hungry to sleep. :blobfoxupsidedown:

Every day involves at least a few kinds of suffering. :blobfoxgooglycry:

glitter, to random

got a xlux roffu courtesy of @tk after he threw away my pax plus charger

@glitter At least we could get you a replacement charger so you'll have two usable vapes. :blobfoxgoogly:

When @glitter and I got to the bottom of a long hill while yesterday, I heard the tell-tale sign of a leak in my front tire, a well-used . She even said it was smoking, but I knew it was just sealant blowing out.

Thankfully, it was at the end of our ride and I didn't have to deal with steering on a floppy tire. I did snap this picture, though. :blobfoxsweating:

I tried seating it again today and it just wouldn't hold air because of the same spot. That's when I noticed the bulge in the sidewall near the bead, so I decided to toss the tire and put on a fresh (identical) one I had in reserve. The new tire seated without issue, aside from how I had to do it twice because I put it on the wrong way the first time. :blobfoxgooglymlem:

This isn't a knock on Panaracer tire quality, of course. The tire's been through a lot and there was only so much tread left anyway.

@thatbrickster @glitter I was once like that. :blobfox_w_:

The real downside is that the bike will be "offline" until tomorrow so that the sealant can make its way into all the tiny leaks while the wheel is resting in a safe environment.

@thatbrickster The e-bike I got @glitter weighs around 17kg. :blobfox3c:

Why are there so many emergency vehicle sirens and car alarms going off today? :blobfoxconfused:

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

Pretty sure one of them is one car's alarm I've heard tripped at least five times now. :blobfoxangry:

It's gone off three more times since I last posted. :blobfoxdisgust:

Does the sound of someone getting ready to leave or packing their luggage give anyone else anxiety? :blobfoxsad:

@triodug A1 overpowers the flavor of the steak.

Multitasking just means doing a shittier job at each task. :blobfoxgoogly:

There's something exciting about cities.

The large infrastructure absolutely dwarfing tiny squishy humans who are all individually excited about whatever plans or ploys they might have

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Rocc Doesn't that apply to life anywhere in developed countries? Best example is the road and highway networks that dwarf all of us.

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Rocc Most real small towns feature run-down storefronts showing Walmart's path of destruction. :blobfoxsad:

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Rocc They're more likely to become pot shops. :blobfoxgoogly:

getting a squeaky toy put in during orchiectomy so its really funny if someone kicks me in the crotch

@nik So that's what they call castration today. :blobfoxthinkgoogly:

@Rocc @shibao @izaya @purple @Ariri @dokuja Look what showed up yesterday! :blobfoxowonotice:

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Ariri @Rocc @dokuja @izaya @purple @shibao Turns out I got the one that's technically not legal for road use because it doesn't fit the optional catalytic converter. Since the dyno tune is tomorrow, I don't have any choice but to go with it. :blobfoxgoogly:

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Ariri @Rocc @dokuja @izaya @purple @shibao (I thought the different options on RevZilla were just different finishes because they didn't specify anything about legality on the road.)

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Ariri @Rocc @dokuja @izaya @purple @shibao Imagine how dumb I felt after learning that the plastic rivets have a little button in the middle for releasing them, after I did all of the disassembly work. :blobfoxdeadinside:

I’ll put it all back together in the morning, because the instructions said to tighten the flange nuts again after letting the bike run for a half hour. :blobfoxgoogly:

tk,
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com avatar

@Ariri @Rocc @dokuja @izaya @purple @shibao Also, the kit came with an extension (?) cable for the O2 sensor that I didn't end up needing because the stock cable was plenty fine for it. :blobfoxconfused:

Oh, and all of the photos in the instructions were of a CBR650F so I had to figure out bolt and rivet locations the hard way. :blobfoxupsidedown:
