KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Distracting myself today by messing around with oddball audio formats. 100
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Ducati Panigale V2S. The hype is actually deserved. Absolutely sublime. Telepathic control, marvelous torque, speed, and sound from the excellent new V2 engine, surprising comfort, and stunning looks. The only bike that has ever made me consider selling my beloved Street Triple, and that says a lot. 000
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Harley-Davidson Fat Boy. For years I thought I hated old Harleys. Turns out I just hate the Evo engine (come at me). The Milwaukee Eight is in another league, and the Fat Boy may be its cruiser peak. It really does not want to lean, but it may not be possible to have more fun chewing through miles. 100
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Harley-Davidson Pan America - People are sleeping on this bike and it’s a shame. This is an excellent motorcycle even by general standards. H-D’s Revolution Max engine is fantastic and the PanAm makes the most of it. Would take over a GS or an Africa Twin (but not the Transalp). 100
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Suzuki GSX-R750. I expected this to be a recklessly fast outdated missile. Instead I got an extremely fast, but nicely torquey missile that felt more controllable and mechanical than most of the 16 other bikes I rode. If I ever get a > 600cc supersport, it’ll be this one. Suzuki has a real gem. 100
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Honda Gold Wing. This is one of the biggest surprises of my riding life. It is an absolute S-tier motorcycle. I just wanted to keep riding and riding and riding. Butter smooth, so comfortable, and shockingly fast and nimble. They’re expensive, but someday I want to buy one and ride coast to coast. 110
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Compromise solution: post the highlights instead of all of them. Starting with: Honda Transalp. Never ridden an ADV bike before. Thought they were silly. This one changed my mind. It’s really good. Quick, comfy, stable. Liked it more than the ‘upgrade’ Africa Twin. Even wanted to take it off-road. 100
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Trying to do some writing today. Deciding which pen to use is sadly the easy part. 140
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 28/03/2026I will counteract the heaviness of that with this: I’ve had more time for my hobbies in the interim and have been having fun with my fountain pens and writing again. Going to write some letters to friends soon. 020
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 08/02/2026I honestly love how Doro has become an actual thing they embraced, especially considering how Dorothy, who it’s modeled after, is an absolutely dangerous and elegant mess of an individual. 110
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 24/10/2025Never thought I’d get misty eyed at an autumn drive, but dammit I’ve missed this place. I’ll be back in the desert in a few hours, but I’m spite of all the jokes, this place is still home. 010
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 03/10/2025The hunt for CD albums I want on my ongoing quest to break away from streaming audio scored two major wins recently. 010
KrunchyLex @krunchylex.bsky.social · 05/08/2025I have witnessed a miracle this day. I'm not even mad that I got shorted on white sparks. I will happily take a 3-star power spark. 110
