100% depends on the bike. This one isn't bad without the fork brace, but it does affect handling. when I rebuilt these forks I removed the spacers to shorten them by about an inch, and they're also...
Yeah I've had a look at that. Also found a site where it cross references everything for you based on make/model.
Here are my options:
Cheapest: content myself with a single front disk, rebuild...
No, he's right.
The factory fender has a thickened section that acts as a fork brace and without it you're putting additional stress on the front axle. That said, there's no way a fender is going...
Thanks man!
I still lurk on this forum for time to time, but I don't post much anymore.
Kind of forgot that I even had a bike for 5 years, but decided to get back to it a couple months ago. Tore everything back apart and put it back together. Just got it on the road a couple days ago. ...
I got rid of our spare bedroom and turned that into my music room. Last time I hung all my guitars on the wall, I put enough hooks for the amount of guitars that I had. This time I was smart and put...
I need to fix a couple amps before I start worrying about tubes.
I've ordered tubes and transformers from Antique Electronic Supply before (tubesandmore.com).
Not Canadian, but they had reasonable shipping and decent prices.
I bought a PCB and the components, so it's mostly just a matter of soldering everything together and checking it all. I made a couple changes, but it was pretty paint by numbers. I did enough...
~1.5watt push-pull firefly circuit
Two 12ax7 pre amp tubes, one is a switched cascade boost circuit
12au7 as a power tube.
Fun little practice amp that gives you that tube dynamic at super low...
The Traynors have become sentient and begun replicating...

Despite barely playing 6 string...
My opinion only, and I rarely have a clue what I'm talking about:
My 6.5 year old is small for her age, and she's *just* big enough to be able to wrangle her mini strat.
I would predict that piano...
Awesome.
I wish my guitars had a Moustache...
I haven't really even played a really nice acoustic like that, and I don't think I should. I buy way too much shit as it is.
Kiddo got her first...
I was looking at a Traynor Small Block that's a similar type thing to the GK mentioned. 200watts and about 30lbs
But ultimately, I went a different way. I figured that with 200w and a single 12, I...
Thanks for the suggestions!
I think it's more of a collection of guys than a formal band at this point, but we'll see.
I've been told there's a decent PA, so I'm hoping I can get away with a...
That's awesome. I just showed that to my 6 year old who's been very casually learning some chords on her uke. I told her if she could learn to play a couple songs on that, that I'd buy her a pink...
That is just awesome! I really dig the color.
My wife's uncle has an original Starcaster, and they are so goddamned cool. My little collection is sorely missing an offset. I have a spare bridge...
Yeah I'm thinking about picking up a cheap bass just to play that part of the game.
Anyone pick up Rocksmith 2014 yet? It's a big improvement over the last game. Lots of tuning variations though, so multiple guitars come in handy.
Any interested in trades for a mint Jackson DK2M?...
Sounds about right
My wife is applying now as well. She doesn't qualify for long term disability, and her short term is about to run out.
She's been told by social work people who have been...
At least faith healing doesn't occasionally result in stroke, paralysis or death.
There really isn't any "maybe" in there, aside from the fact that Chiros perform some of the same things as Doctors of Physio Therapy (albeit often for the wrong reasons and with far less actual...
Hi,
Nice to meet you.
I am that guy.
I also have 800+ axe kills, so I'm that guy too.
I got sick of having to choose between losing every knife fight and panic knifing the air, so I cracked open a spare ps3 controller and spliced a couple little momentary switches in. Now I have...
It took me an embarrassingly long time to get gold camo for my 870. I was going to go for diamond shotguns, but after spending 2 hours trying to get my last bloodthirsty, I think I'll just enjoy the...
Is it just me, or are there way more people running around in parties than there have been on previous CODs?
95% of the time I play solo, and it seems like I'm always in a team of people who have no...
This shit happens every fucking year:
"This game sucks!"
"'X' is cheap!"
"The last one was better!"
I have no idea why people continue to buy these games when all they do is bitch about the new...
Can, but not at all common, especially on a solid body electric.
Your string tension is going to be ~150-180lbs on an electric. Even a super heavy guitar only weighs maybe 12-13lbs.
While the...
I completely agree.
I do this for a living. I'd be willing to bet that the person doing the inspection was doing a mechanical inspection only. No structural inspector would see a lifting cable that...
Ugh. Both my friends who are into SxDx are at work in the US until May. Otherwise, I'd definitely be there.
Nope, haven't ordered anything yet.
Cost will depend on what style you want, and how much power you need it to handle.
I'll send you a PM.
Look into what's happening to the guy the ECB sent in to sort their books out, because it gets better.
He's facing life in prison.
Greece is in trouble because they lied and manipulated their financial statistics in order to gain entry into the eurozone, then, the combination of the good-will awarded as being a eurozone member,...
"This American Life" did a fantastic show on this a few weeks ago. I'd suggest you dig that up. It's only an hour long radio show
Anyone want an attenuator?
I'm ordering a bunch or parts from mouser for my next tube amp build, and I've got a couple different plans for decent attenuator circuits. I figured if anyone was...
I'm a cranky old fuck who rarely leaves his house and hates crowds, but I'll be there, if at all possible...
A few years ago, Hornady started making LeveRevolution bullets. They have a soft tip so they're safe to use in tubular magazines, but give you the added velocity and accuracy of a properly tipped...
Guitar is gone.
Saturated and it's no longer an "event".
I still love and follow MMA, but there needs to either be a more logical flow and progression like other organized sports (difficult to imagine how that...
