To be honest you get kind of used to seeing certain things in rural places. It honestly wasn't the focus of the photo, but I realized that some folks get extra sensitive to things, so I went and edited the photo and updated it.
I debated purchasing an integrated comm for my first nice helmet, a Shoei Neotec. I am glad I went to a standalone unit instead. That helmet did not end up working out for me and I was able to move my comm to my next helmet. Otherwise, I would have been stuck with two very expensive paper weights.
That's my thought as well. Things like failing interior plastics, or glass that is no longer being manufactured, or basic body seals rotting away. Even body rotlike folks in cold or salty environments deal with.Those bits add up fast.
Here is a basic maintenance schedule for the Street 750. Harley folks tend to treat cable maintenance as an annual task.
Check out someone like cycle gear for cable lube kits if you don't have a dedicated cycle shop in your local area.
If you plan on maintaining the bike yourself, see if you can get a service manual for your bike. Harley usually has them for $100 or less. They are not cheap, but it can be a lifesaver.
Two things come to mind as long as you aren't noticing any issues with shift into gears.
Your cable could be binding up and needs to be lubricated. They make lube for motorcycle cables that don't attract dirt that work pretty well.
Cable has worn out from lack of lubrication. If lubricating either doesn't help at all, or only helps for a few days, you may need to replace the cable with a new one.
If it is for physical sales only I would have to guess we are looking at things like cassette, USB drives and limited releases on other obscure formats like minidisk.
It's one of those things where the money sounds good until you realize you also have to live somewhere expensive to get it.
I could conceivably move to somewhere like ND and save a ton of money on housing and the necessities, but the limited job market could also mean that I would be unable to continue in the same career.
And switching jobs sound great, unless you're in an industry seeing large changes post-pandemic. It's certainly kept me from jumping ship. At least until I see my area of work stabilize.
To add to it, I am doing alright overall. But my student loans kicked back in, food prices have climbed, even my monthly utilities have increased as of a few months ago. So I might not be worried about keeping the lights on, I do feel the pinch and it doesn't make me feel overjoyed about the economy.
Counting from the age of 18 to now, I have had 18 actual jobs in the last 30 years. A couple were times when I had two jobs at the same time, and I didn't count side gigs I had.
I would guess that I've had a lot of jobs, but I am now in tech,so it doesn't seem to hurt me like it did when I worked other industries.
So essentially they didn't address one of the biggest issues, what to do with the remaining embryos. Seems pretty on brand for conservative legislation.
The only thing I really can say is Manchin is a better option than the Republican that would most likely replace him. Kind of like how it is preferable to be stabbed through the hand over being stabbed in the face.
The Casual Dots are a trio formed in Washington, DC in 2002, featuring Christina Billotte (Slant 6, Quixotic, Autoclave) on vocals and guitar, Kathi Wilcox (Bikini Kill, Frumpies) on guitar and backing vocals, and Steve Dore (Snoozers, Deep Lust) on drums.
Boot Liquor was the station that introduced me to groups like The Devil Makes Three. I haven't listened in a few years, but it was an oasis of non-bro country back in the day.
It's not an exclusively Alternative station, but a fairly wide ranging mix of classics, b-sides, world, electronic, etc. All fairly low-key but interesting.
They introduced me to so many bands over the years. And it is rare to not hear something I fall in love with any time I turn them on.
That's pretty awesome. I like that you've kept the tradition up for your anniversaries too.
I am a music obsessive. But to be honest my choices might make my wife's ears bleed. At least she is cool with me blaring music through the house every chance I get.

Trimmed out the Biden stuff. Hard to miss it around here and didn't want to derail motorcycle pics with politics.

I should comment AFTER I read the article.
If it is for physical sales only I would have to guess we are looking at things like cassette, USB drives and limited releases on other obscure formats like minidisk.
I'd assume it is for digital downloads.
If I am not purchasing LPs, I try to purchase MP3s/FLAC that I can copy and move around as I please.

Thanks for the clarification. I read it quickly earlier and missed the part where the amendment was voted down.
So essentially they didn't address one of the biggest issues, what to do with the remaining embryos. Seems pretty on brand for conservative legislation.
As a resident of this state it bugs the shit out of me to know these are the folks my neighbors vote for.
And when I see a reference to Utah in the news, I immediately wonder what kind of stupid or horrible thing have we done this time.

IAMDYNAMITE - Hey Girl
Another group that I want to say that the entire, Super Mega Fantastic, album is worth a listen.
And their follow up, Wasa Tusa, is a great chill out album
Here is one I was recently exposed through from Henry Rollins show on KCRW.
The Casual Dots - Bumblebee

One I have listened to off and on for nearly 20 years now is Radio Paradise.
