    No, the blown in is definitely just loose fibers. I had the vermiculite in another house and it was nasty! Not sure on the drywall compound though, that may be.

    I'm stuck at work would of loved to go for a ride today. Oh and the ktm is still out of commission too many damn electronics on new bikes. I haven't even had time to make an appointment with the dealer for warranty work.
    It's reading immobilizer failure. Apparently it doesn't recognize the key. Such bs. Bike has 863mi on it

    That sucks. That would be my biggest fear with a bike like the KTM, limited dealers in my area and not sure how much confidence I would have in them.

    My local dealer is now a ktm service center so that's a plus. But I haven't had time with the new job I started on Monday. And driving for the cab company today. But after today I will no longer drive cabs. I need the weekend for me so I can get my own shit taking care of. I need to get lcas done on my truck get my commuter car up and going get the ktm fixed. And finish restoring my cbr1000rr.

    Did the same, traded my 17 for my 21 Tundra, last of the 5.7. Then bought a beater Camry to keep miles down on Tundra. Actually Camry does alright in the snow.

    I see a hip replacement in my future. I know alot of my pain stems from my leg. Titanium rod from knee to ankle. And a reconstructed foot all my toes were pinned and seized. But majority of the time I get all the pain in my right hip. Probably doesn't help I've broken every bone below my waist

    And if you have to kneel, put a pad down. I've been using pads of some type inside and out for a few years now, especially on hard surfaces. I recently talked to a contractor who said he NEVER kneels on bare concrete, something he learned from his father.

    I’d post pics but don’t want anyone to feel my pain! lol

    It didn’t help that I was bow-legged either; everyone recognized my walk. lol

    Yes, find a orthopedic doctor first. If you know of any trusted physical therapist, ask them who has done them…they get referred after surgery.

    I remember cortisone shots and taking Motrin 800 for occasional swelling but those days are gone!

    Good luck in your pursuit.

    Yeah I traded my 2011 for a 21 tundra. I’ll buy a used Tacoma but it’ll be for a wheeling rig. 3 link and I want the 4.0 power. My 3.0 in my 1990 is a slug. I drive a 2004 RAV4 for a commuter. Works pretty well.

    My friend had inserts put in his knee. Not a total replacement. I guess they ground bone away and slipped these plastic pieces in. He was riding a mtn bike in a month.

    Should be able to get it all knocked out in a day. Also ordered a new windshield for it. It's not broken but it is leaking

    Well the front rotors and pads are on the '19 Rav4 Adventure AWD atleast. Did the procedure to do the rear brakes a couple times but no luck getting the parking brake actuator to release the piston all the way in (I did it correctly and heard the actuator motor running to pull the pistons all the way in and did the release process and heard the motor than as well). So the old rusty, crusty pads and rotors are back on for now. Ran out of daylight and I have an extremely busy day tomorrow so I'll try again either tomorrow afternoon or Tuesday. For those with the newer Rav4's here's a link for the rear parking brake actuator procedure.

    Good evening. Hope you all had a great day.
    It was a great day to get out on the bike. Rode to Legion in Ephrata & met up with a group. We rode to Marsh Creek, Blue Marsh, & the Pogota.
