Haha, sorry about that.

Short version:
Had to take sleep test Tuesday night. Slept like Sh!t
Stopped for coffee at Starbucks on the way home from work. Wanted a Nitro brew somekind or other. Guy came on the speaker "May I take your order" and I panicked, ordered the wrong item and hated it.

Day ruined

Haven't been able to drive the M3 in weeks because the county is repaving the road out front of my house and the end of my driveway is currently too steep.

1. I work from home for my new job so haven't really been driving anywhere, and I like driving.

2. The only 2 days it's been warm enough this month to drive my Wrangler with no top or doors it ended up raining.

I have some. I use them on the highway, but harder to use around town since mine is a 5MT.

Dealing with AT&T technical support.

M5Rick · 04-29-2021, 01:25 PM

At least its gone into default mode and you're free to drive, its prob one of the electric motors on the rear brake calipers.

Yeah, but it's super annoying having the chime any time I open the door

.

I need to replace all my brakes soon, so just have to add troubleshooting this to the list.

Manually turned on my sprinklers tonight at 11pm and one was broken in the front yard. Think maybe a kid ran through my yard or rode a bike or something and broke it earlier in the day. No big deal, it happens, and kids will be kids. Water was shooting up about 15ft in the air, lol. Needed to water the lawn tonight so made the repair. Always find it a little more difficult to work on sprinklers at night, even with a portable light. Feel lucky to have these little first world problems.

I have been struggling so hard, no sleep (work already takes that away)... but I simply can't settle on a replacement for my Anniversario (R.I.P)

Which one would YOU choose...?

upstatedoc · 06-03-2021, 04:23 PM

the middle 0ne

I'm sure your already aware that there aren't many motorcycle shops in the north east that allow test rides, unfortunately.

Top one. But I'm no motorcycle enthusiast so take anything I say with a large grain of salt. The mirrors on the BMW just look like they belong on a scooter...to me anyways. I like the middle ducati as well, but like the top the best.

The top choice is definitely the most exciting of the bunch... but IMHO, not worth the asking price for a "plain old" V4s.

I also say this with a grain of salt... after running an HP4 then an Anniversario over the past 4 years, which happens to be two of the most limited production bikes on the planet, outside of the H2.

Kinda got used to the "exclusivity" that came with rolling up on either of those.

... First world problems, indeed.

Ducati

But that's based on the fact the guy who painted my softtail ALWAYS had pieces in the shop he was returning to the correct shade of red. Most fairings had about 30 seconds on them

You should post a pic of your bike again. I do remember seeing it and I remember liking it, but I can't quite picture it anymore. Seem to recall a flag painted on there?
