1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah, only trips we have planned are for the coast and down to so cal.

No plans to go up north at all this year.

 

Haven't done much except drive it. Work has been throwing a wrench in things lately lol. It didn't blow up the CVT going over Vail pass both ways so it might just be a runner

 

What year is it. I thought it was pre CVT

 

2009

 

Oh wow, yeah not blowing up the CVT is a definite achievement haha

 

I'm trying to decide if changing the fluid is more good than bad at 185k mi

 

I'd be lying if I told you I have any clue if it matters with a CVT. All I know is they don't pull that metal belt in there, they push it and that info is enough for me to know that it isn't long for this world no matter what ones does to it.

 

@Wulf sell it and upgrade to a new set of problems while it still drives...

 

@Abeyancer

Motor has had a light metal tap ever since I got it.

I knew it wasn't something to do with the bracket, assembly, pulley, or blade or anything but just to check the box off, I ran the motor with nothing on it.



4 bolts on top of the motor are undone (they were seized, I had to cut slots into one of them). But the bolts don't come out? And the cover, no matter how hard I pry or tap with a hammer it won't come out.

Deal with the tapping noise? I feel like it might just be the fan right under the cover.

 

We may do Monterey in November but not sure yet

 

@Wulf

 

Looks great!

 

I can see that. Some of the designs I build still use pogo pins for connections. Been a while since someone played 1200 pin pickup....

 

Well then.

Taking it apart, this thing's equipped with dual processors

Keyboards are getting to be rather insane on the inside.

A friend of mine has a Dygma Raise, and the level of customizability on it is nutso. 7 something layers of different keyboard combinations, RGB lightining, etc. Makes me wonder when we'll see malware targeted at keyboard processors.

 

Our product manager would have a meltdown if we had to do anything like that.
