So many mf’s get hit for licks tbh see days. I don’t remember ever being kinda shook to walk back to the whip with valuables like I did today. Perhaps I’m getting soft but it’s a feeling that came from somewhere lol. I had this exact feeling when i bought my kid's Ipad. My son wanted to carry it himself but rundle mall was crawling with junkies that day and I had to insist it go in my backpack. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But $400 for do it yourself car repair beats the dog shit out of what ever the dealership would charge. I think they were like 85 or 95 apiece if you bought them single.

It's creeping up on 100k and I'm not ready to deal with any major problem from this thing. She's been good for years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if it's been good to you for that long, I'd try getting another 100k out of it as you stack paper if it doesn't give any major problems where the repair is just as much as a new whip. The new E Class looks pretty sweet. I like the tech MB is offering these days. It's just tough for me to justify a 100k ride. Although, I am the type that cringes at a 100k ride, but will go buy a 300-500 t shirt. My stupidty is on a level I can't even understand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdleHandz Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 @Schnitzel in my 30s now. Definitely cannot pull it off. I just thought it was nostalgic from my childhood.

Regular rotation with oil change which puts me around 3500 miles intervals. I am a big fan of the Yokohama 740GTX they have the deepest tread depth bor the dollar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 275 65 20 BFG KO2’s on since mid 2021 put about 65K on them. Had a failed strut that caused some bad wear on one. Switched up to 275 60 20 Cooper ATP2’s. Shaved off 56 pounds by sizing down and saved some cash. Those BFG’s are like $450 a pop right now…..yeah, I’m good on that.

ndv Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) That's an interesting setup, are you planing on using it to blast your bike projects? If you never used one open like that, get ready to have glass beads and fine dust film on everything you blast near.

nicklesndimes Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 @ndv yes i am using on the bike frame...in this instance i am going to paint it a new color, something i never do, so i think this might make the job quite a bit easier. 6 minutes ago, ndv said: get ready to have glass beads and fine dust film on everything you blast near. right on. i have decided to do it in/on this big old wheelbarrow we have, so that should catch some of the leftover stuff, but i'm still prepared for some cleanup for sure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure which media you are using but is you're using fine or ultra fine, it may take a while. medium bead should do you good around 80-90psi. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicklesndimes Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 i'm using this stuff. you're correct, it said 90psi. thanks for your interest btw man, this has turned out to be kind of a nightmare project...but you know what they say "a labor of love".. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, so looks like you're using a gritty media, coarse. You basically wanna blast the paint off to where you see a fine satin finish, bare metal. If you see pitting just back away from the frame although the finish surface with light pitting from the media is actually beneficial as when you spray primer, the pits allow the primer and paint to bond to something for a grip. Same if you're going to powder coat or Cerakote. The finger the media the finer the surface finish. There's all sorts of media, glass, aluminum oxide (stay way from that stuff unless you really need it), metal pellets, pecan shells. Anyhow, your beads being glass will break down pretty quick so blasting is a slow and steady thing once you find your distance and psi. Good luck with it. I am sure the bike is going to be killer when you're complete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
