There's a hierarchy among the cliques with waving. While on my Enfield, most people except for some sportbike riders wave me back. While on my Honda 650, most people except Harley riders wave me back. While on the scooter, nobody from either wave back . The only exception to the rule is a Harley rider with pillion: they never wave because. (In their mid-life-crisis minds) it would look bad to their trophy-wife if they interacted with the 'plebians.' Or they're too preoccupied with stroking their egos to notice other people on the road (they certainly drive like that's the case). Either/or, really.

I wouldn't say that they're poorly repaired - on the contrary, the repairs are fairly amazing on most of them. The issue is that what they repaired should not ever be touched by human hands. Once you break certain structures in a unibody, the entire thing needs to be replaced.

The apocalypse scenario happens often enough in northern Idaho. I had MY GIRLFRIEND pick me up from a town 30 minutes/30 miles away because I had stranded myself on my motorcycle at a friend's house because it snowed overnight. The snow started falling so heavily on the ride home that the 30 minute trip became over an hour. It was a four-lane split highway, and there were well over a dozen cars stuck in the ditch between the two, though some were half-covered with snow so they were probably crashed the night before. There were multiple semis stopped on the side of the road, and the only other car we saw was a state trooper in a Blazer. It dropped almost six inches of snow in that trip alone. Driving a white Ford Explorer with absolutely no other cars on the road in northern Idaho during a blizzard is an eerie experience. At least she had her lights on the whole time.

Nah, we just install roundabouts mostly as a way to break up long, straight roads in suburbs to slow the 17-year-old rich white kids with mommy's Civic from street racing. I've been driving around for about 3 weeks in Phoenix and I've encountered maybe two actual functional roundabouts. Quite a change from Idaho, though, where I encountered exactly zero roundabouts at all in 10 years/300,000 miles of driving.

I rode 30 miles in 4 degree Fahrenheit weather at 60 on my Enfield, once. My breath froze on the inside of my visor, and the condensation from my gloves froze on the mirrors every time I tried to wipe them. The carburetor iced up about 27 miles in, and I had to hold WOT to keep the bike barely at 30mph. There was actual ice around the pod filter. Never again.

I do, and will always, suggest that anyone who wants a well-powered V6 in a car that didn't originally come with one (regardless of make/model) that they throw in a supercharged gen III GM3800. The wiring harness is dead loving simple (comparatively speaking) and the engine mounts can be welded by a rhesus monkey that spent an hour of welding workshop being taught by Tusken Takk. Granted, I may be biased because I spent a summer in my childhood putting a Gen II into the bed of an old Datsun (complete with a seat for the dude who had to sit in the bed and shift for us because we were too lazy to hook up a proper transmission linkage but spending two days poo poo-welding a scrap metal seat wasn't difficult or something blah blah blah 15-year-olds) for kicks, but I still say it is worth it This post probably qualifies for the thread.

hiddenmovement posted:If there are pics, yes, it does qualify for a thread. No pictures, but we essentially took a 3800 w/manual transmission (out of a Fiero or something else that was sitting in my cousin's "junkyard" slash old wheat field - :idaho:), cut a hole in the bed of a tiny old Datsun 620, dropped the engine in, and fabricated/cannibalized the remaining driveline parts (easier than it sounds when alignment doesn't really matter). I think the driveshaft was like eight inches long and we had to cut a hole in the back of the cab to fit the valve cover and part of an engine mount. Here's something I whipped up that sums my summers with my cousins pretty well (not my ATV, but we would have done it if we had thought of it):

I actually appreciate well-maintained shitboxes. Up in Idaho you'd see a lot of lovely, horrible paint-and-rust cars with fresh tires and good glass in them because it is the type of region where people know how to take care of their cars well, but can't afford luxuries like paint jobs or dent removal. It's almost cute sometimes. Black plastic over a window hole is a no-no, though.

The nissan isn't the most interesting thing in that pic. Is there a person sitting backwards on the motorcycle in front of you? I see an exhaust pipe, but the arm is bent towards the camera. And, if that's the case, why is the shoe pointed away?

The front hitch makes it looks like he plows snow or something. I could see the utility of flashing lights on top of your car when you can't see the road.
