im going helicoil. $30 vs $73 for the timesert kit. just not worth the extra imo for a one time use.

 

Note to self. Don't buy anything used from Chris. He halfasses everything he touches

 

its not half-assing at all. its still a proper fix, i just dont see a timesert worth double the money and extra effort it that would be required

 

Some of us have real jobs that we can't request off anytime we want

Yeah, definitely not going to be able to go. Only day I'll be off is that Sunday when everybody leaves.

 

Sick time?

 

Last time we didn't head home till 5 or 6pm. But in order to ride that day with everyone you'd have to get there super early

 

Huh?

Yeah, don't think it'd be worth it at that point...

 

At least it wasnt jb welded

 

I shot some photos of a really clean 954 last night. I figured this would be a good place to share.

You can't call off? You don't have any kind of sick time or anything?

 

I don't get sick days. I do get 30 days of paid leave per fiscal year. But during those days of the supermoto meet other people have already taken those days off meaning I can't.

 

Roger that. Makes sense.

Real job huh? Pffffft.

 

Yup. If they would have stuck with the original days that the meet was supposed to be on then I could go. But they changed it too last minute and now I can't get those off.

Yeah, that's how a real job works

 

I got a new helmet today, AGV K-3 SV. I love it! Its way quieter, better vented and lighter than my sedici adv helmet. ICON stryker vest came in last night. Happy with it too, now i just hope ill never have to actually test either of these

 

My jacket hasn't really been tested but my helmet has a couple times. I need a new one already :/

 

Im selling my old helmet. HJC FG-17

 

Build date and size?

 

Size XL. I think build date is 12/14

 

How do you like the vest? Im thinking about that. And/or a armored hoodie
