I forgot to share that I did get the KX500 titled and plated, I got the front brake sorted after these pics were taken, (with no help from BRAKING). #motosky

I’m think I’m going to let someone else do this one. Probably be a screaming deal for a Katana enthusiast. I don’t have the energy for a long distance sale.

Six years ago this week, a fly attempted a brazen attack on VP Mike Pence during a live debate. Today, another fly (potentially an associate) attacked Sen. John Hickenlooper, leading Hick to slap his own face on television. These flies are a menace.

‘26 Ioniq5 was an excellent machine for this kind of travel. My only big gripe is the same as it was for the ‘24. The GPS won’t show 2 lane routes easily, it will claim to show options but just the same ones 5 times. We know there are sections where we can save time and it’s a fight with gps.

We just got home from our 1st big road trip in the ‘26 Ioniq. No issues as usual, so many more chargers than 15 months ago. We were able to use Ionna more than half the time. Stopped at the Crazy 80’s museum in Dwight, IL, great collection and fun visit with David. 🧵 #weirdcarbs #evsky

The most important thing I learned in my 20s is that being smart doesn't make you special. Eventually you need to learn to try hard and to enjoy learning to do things you're not immediately good at. It turns out that the people who didn't learn this lesson were reading Harry Potter fanfic.

A digital illustration based on a photo of Lori Winston, the June 1964 Playboy Playmate of the Month. The drawing is rendered in heavy pencil outlines and flat planes of color with colored pencil hatching. Lori is shown reclining by the low steps of a swimming pool, leaning back propped up with her arms behind her. One leg is bent and the other fully extended out for the leg enjoyers. She's turning her head toward the camera with a coquetteish tilt and smile. Her auburn hair is gathered up on her head in a distinctly 1960s way. She is wearing a white t-shirt that covers her down to the top of her thighs and no evidence of any other articles altho you could show this to your grandma and she wouldn't blink. Very chaste. In the bottom right corner under one of Ms. Winston's hands is some orange marker-style script lettering reading 'Maybe it will happen today'.

Less dense air lowers measured compression. Do a compression check on your KDX220 next time you take it up to the high country or just google it.

I also understand that, what I’m saying is that an engine that shows 150 psi at sea level will show a lower number at elevation and that 150 at elevation may be too high for our 91 octane fuel.

I understand, what I’m saying is that compression is lower at elevation. I’m at 5400’ above sea level. At this elevation a freshly built stock 2t mx bike is typically between 115-130. 150 here on a 2t probably means it’s not stock. Additionally, premium fuel here is 91 octane.

At sea level? When I do a top end up here I usually get 115-130 on a fresh top end.

First time doing a compression test and hoping the number wouldn’t be too high, I’m told if it’s above 150 psi I need to consider mixing race fuel in (this is at 5400’). #motosky #kx500

Amtrak didn’t tell us about this exposure, so heads up: if you took an Amtrak train last week through Chicago or anywhere on the Southwest Chief, Coast Starlight, or California Zephyr routes like we did, you may have been exposed to measles! Please let the train people in your life know about this

When the KX fired up the front caliper started leaking, it had no pressure previously. I just removed it and one of the pistons fell out. There were no pads in it. 😂 I’ve heard of this brand but when I checked their website they don’t list calipers or pads. Anyone know where I should look? #motosky

Digital lettering in a kind of fat marker style colored in bluish-greens. The letters have been extruded and warped back into space in reddish-maroon overwritten in in yellow-green inlines. Everything is outlined in white and set against an irregular mottled grayish-blue background shape. Perched in amongst the letters is seated a small pink bunny with its cheek resting in one paw, looking bored and impatient. The lettering, of course, reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.
