Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

We both work at WSU, so if it's during the work day it's easier to teams her than text

 

oh why that lol

haha i thought it was! my work just got it like a month ago to replace skype its waaay better

 

Extra lighting is huge. I notice people noticing me way more on the super tenere as its up taller and has better headlights vs the 919, flip on my front light bar and people REALLY notice me coming up on them. Out back I replaced the rearward lower reflector with a reflector that also has tail / brake lights, looks oem but offeres better visibility out back, especially with the top box on.

I did add in a resistor or two to tone down the tail light brightness as it looked like brakes were on all the time.

 

I added a Suprabrake light modulator based on the recommendation of a fellow FJR rider.

Plug and play install with a ton of options on how to set it up. I also have reflective decals on the back sides of my saddlebags and added some to my Givi trunk. There really is no excuse for someone NOT seeing me.

 

It's a bit of a resource hog but works way better than our last solutions have. But yeah, anyone can get a hold of me at anytime and that part is annoying. Especially when it's student employees at like 2:30 in the morning asking about a shift two weeks from now. Like bruh, email me.

Although, to be fair, with what I do in events half of Pullman has my cell phone number already so it's not like they couldn't get a hold of me before haha

 

My Versys has better lights than my cars.

 

Teams blows. We used to use slack and zoom and it was the best combo.

 

haha true you know you can change it to in a meeting and they wont notify you if i remember correctly lol

i mean we were using skype and it was awful so teams is way better since we can do memes and gifs finally haha

 

Zoom for video is way better than teams video. We use a combo of both, actually. Most of my meetings are zoom meetings and we use teams for teams and messaging.

 

Same here. Lighting on my FJR makes everything else I drive suck in comparison.

 

Yeahhh no. Phone on silent out in the kitchen charging at night. Shit can wait till I wake up in the morning.

 

Hang it on the wall. Plenty of room there

 

I'm the emergency person for our building (six story, 240,000 sqft, lots of department, student tenants as well as a few food service options, lots to go wrong), so I don't have the luxury of that, unfortunately

 

Def not as cool as that Honda. Also wish he would touch the stacyc I got him for his birthday

 

Love that you added a real plate onto it

 

Oh yeah I save all the bike plates ha, that one was from the R6. He had the Katana's plate on his push car too when he was younger. The only plate I don't have is my f4i since the plate got stolen with the bike attached to it.

 

Nice panniers! We are going places! Even if it’s in the backyard lol

 

Oof, yeah definitely lots that can go wrong there.

 

^This is how I want to respond to 75% of the messages I get.

Teams is ok for meetings and screen share but ends up being another inbox of requests to deal with. It should be for quick chat but turns into people trying to get things resolved immediately that aren't that important. My group manages financial systems and we have a fairly large user base.

Anyways glad it's Friday... weekend weather is looking decent

 

Well I got my Aerostich Kanetsu heated windstopper. I'm so excited to try it out.
