LAUGHED IN THEIR FACES LMAOOOOO. i was on facetime with my man for like half the game since i am a umich student... WAIT DO U GUYS KNOW THAT....? i dont think ive told u guys that... SURPRISE!!!!!! anyway no one reads these anyway so. ENJOYYYYYYYYYYY :)))))))!
-
One minute and thirty eight seconds. One minute and thirty eight seconds, that's how long JJ and the Wolverine's offense had to score a touchdown. 2nd & Goal, four yards to go. You held JJ's mom's hand as you took deep breaths, desperately trying to calm down. JJ could do this, you knew it. You stared him down as he stood infront of Coach Harbaugh, Alabama had called the last time out of the game.
Michigan needed this score to take the game to overtime. JJ knew, you knew, everyone did. Once JJ clapped in the middle of the huddle, the offense started dispersing back into their spots on the field. Jay's eyes met yours, they had multiple times all night. He knew exactly where you sat, he'd made you text him your seat numbers before the game. You let go of his mom's hand and gestured your hands over your ears, headphones, you always told him. Just pretend it's just you and your guys. Block out everything else. He nodded at you, cracking a little smile before taking a deep breath and running out to the field, putting his helmet back on. His mom melted over the interaction, leaving you blushing.
You crossed your fingers and said a prayer, you'd prayed more than once tonight, you'd been praying about this games for weeks. You held his mom's hand in one of yours, and gripped your 'J' necklace in your other, bouncing on the balls of your feet. The play clock was running low, JJ clapped his hands, beckoning for the ball. It went straight to his hands, he looked around for maybe a second before passing precisely to Roman. He caught it, he had an open lane, he's in the end zone! Holy shit, he's in the end zone!
You jumped, screaming JJ's name, turning to hug his parents. You jumped up and down, a grin wide on your face as you cheered for your boy. His mom wrapped an arm around you as you watched him tearily.
The next Michigan drive was messy, and had you scared, but when the time ran out, you were jumping up and down, shouting and cheering, hugging everyone around.
"Our boy did it!"
You nodded, laughing as you wiped tears from your eyes. The game wasn't over, you knew that. JJ's eyes found yours again, he shook his head in disbelief with a grin, gesturing headphones to you. You nodded, fanning your face from the tears, but smiling so wide it didn't matter.
You sighed happily when you watched Alabama defer their OT possession, that's what JJ wanted, if the game went to overtime, he wanted to go first, it would put more pressure on The Crimson Tide to go second in the long run.
You held your necklace close to your mouth as you closed your eyes, letting out deep breaths. JJ had this, you knew it.
The offensive and defensive lines faced each other at the Alabama 25. JJ clapped, the ball was sent straight to his hands, he quickly handed the ball off the Blake, who scurried around the defenders, landing at the Alabama 17. 'Thank God for Blake Corum' you whispered to yourself.
You saw JJ hiding a smile behind his mouth guard, and you knew this was it. Jay claps, and the ball is snapped straight to him, the ball goes straight to Blake, who has a completely open lane.
"Go Blake, go!"
You screamed out, feeling Megan's hand grip yours. You held your intertwined hands up, watching Blake run. He was in the end zone, yes!
"Yes! JJ, yes!"
You screamed, jumping up and down you as watched your boy cheer. He did it! Thank God! You hugged everyone again, cheering some more when the kick went through the posts. The game still wasn't over, the defense still had to come out and play this game. You knew JJ wouldn't be able to assist his team anymore on the field, but you also knew he was now gonna be the biggest hype man for his defensive teammates.
You bit on your dark blue acrylic nails as you watched Alabama line up at the Michigan 25. You winced as the game went from 3rd & goal at the Michigan 14 to 4th & goal at the Michigan 3. One more play, make or break.
You saw Jalen Milroe clap for the ball, and run straight into the O-line of Michigan. Nothing! He got nothing! Oh my God, Michigan won! You watched JJ sprint onto the field as you screamed, jumping up and down for the third time. Your heart was beating out of your chest as you shouted, hugging Michigan fans you didn't know. Your smile couldn't have been punched off of your face.
The blue and maize confetti flew, you watched tearily as the Michigan guys flooded the field. You watched JJ grab his rose, talking to a reporter. His bright smile and gorgeous face was spread on every screen in the stadium. Your boy had done it, finally. You watched as your sweet boy accepted the Rose Bowl trophy with Blake, his smile never leaving his face.
You ran down the few rows to the bottom row of the bleachers, standing with other Michigan player families as the boys were dispersing back to the sideline, finding their loved ones. JJ, being the star quarterback he was, took a while longer to get over to you guys, but it didn't matter to you.
You two locked eyes, matching smiles on your faces as he ran over to your group. You let him talk to his parents and sisters first, before he moved over to you.
"Come'ere baby!"
You grinned as you leaned down over the barrier, JJ's hands grabbing at your waist to safely pull you closer, kissing you passionately. Your hands cupped his face, as you both smiled into the kiss. You pulled away, whispering to him with a big smile.
"You did it lovey!"
He nodded, his bright smile lighting up your heart.
"Can you just jump the barrier instead of going back through the halls?"
"S'that allowed?"
He looked around, quickly asking an employee of the stadium standing down against the barrier. The employee looked at JJ with wide eyes, nodding at the quarterback, though he probably didn't exactly have the position to answer him.
"See? You're fine, c'mon angel!"
You looked around, seeing one of the guy's little brother being passed over the barrier, then to Megan who shrugged with a smile, nodding for you to go ahead. You slide your phone in the pocket of your jeans, sitting on the barrier before turning around towards JJ, who held his hands on your waist.
"Can't believe I'm doin' this."
JJ laughed, pulling you down as you slightly jumped off the wall, down into his arms on the field. You quickly wrapped your arms around his neck, hugging him tightly.
"I'm so proud of you, Jay. You are so talented, baby."
He pulled away from you, cupping your face with his hands, touching his forehead to yours.
"Just had to remember my headphones, like always."
You nodded, laughing and kissing him again, JJ leaned back, your feet leaving the ground for a few seconds as he kissed you. You both pulled away giggling. You got a random burst of energy, electricity pulsing through your veins.
"Ah! Oh my God, you won!"
You pulled away from JJ, grabbing his hands and jumping up and down. His smile widened, he was so, absolutely in love with you, but watching you support him so wholeheartedly, made his heart squeeze extra with love.
"Yeah! I got the Rose Bowl, baby!"
JJ's family came through the tunnel, having chose the safer route to get to the field. He hugged his family, talking with them and taking pictures. You took a few of them on your phone, smiling sadly at how cute they were.
"Angel! Come take a picture with me!"
You smiled, nodding as you went over to your smiley boyfriend. He took his winner's hat off and plopped it onto your head, it was sweaty, but you didn't care. You did one picture standing next to each other, his arm around your hips as you both smiled brightly. Then there was one where JJ kissed your cheek out of nowhere, then another taken the moment after where you both laughed as you wiped the eyeblack he spread to you off of your cheek.
They were adorable, objectively. Your group was soon exiting down the tunnel, bidding JJ goodbye with a quick kiss as he walked back towards the locker room.
Once you were all reunited with JJ he told you all he wanted to go back to the hotel and get food delivered to the hotel. That was your boy, even after the big win all he wanted to do was go back to his bed.
You got back to the hotel after a long car ride through Rose Bowl traffic, and quickly went up to your room. You and JJ were sharing, though he was technically supposed to be in his football assigned hotel room, he was crashing in yours. His parents knew, you two were trusted, and old enough to make your own decisions.
You showered as Jay laid in your bed, watching the Texas and Washington game. You came out of the bathroom in your pajamas, quickly crawling into bed next to JJ. He pulled you inbetween his legs, wrapping his arms around your middle. You were both tired, him more than you. You noticed the plastic bag sitting on the nightstand.
"What'd you get us to eat?"
You kissed him when he told you he got chicken tenders. You both watched the Sugar Bowl as you ate your dinner. You both got up to throw away your trash and brush your teeth before turning off all the lights and getting right back in bed. JJ watched the game as you laid on his chest, scrolling through your phone, showing him TikToks and Instagram posts of videos taken of you two from the game every little bit. You two were going viral among the teenage girls and fan pages.
When the game finished JJ turned off the TV, and you put your phone away as you two shifted so that JJ was laying with his head on your chest. You played with his sandy hair as you talked.
"I still can't believe all of it, it's just crazy."
"Well I can believe it, I knew you could do it. You know I was scared when we were getting close to the end of regulation, but then I saw you smile right before your last play of the regulation TD run, you know right before Roman got the touchdown, and I just knew it."
JJ looked up at you in the dark, he had hearts in his eyes. You were everything to him, just completely everything.
"I love you so much."
"I love you, baby. 'M so proud of you."

Silly LMK au where Bai He is Tang's daughter;
Tang aquires Bai He (adoption, next of kin, or biologically) around the time Pigsy finds MK, causing the two new parents to go "well damn, we're together with kids now I guess. Might as well move in together." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Pigsy is convinced that their precious baby girl can do no wrong - Tang is far more wiser about his daughter's tricks - Bai He has her Baba wrapped around her little finger.
Canon is almost identical at first except MK pretty much grows up with a mischievous baby sister that he's uber protective of. And ofc MK openly calls the two men his parents (Baba and Bama/Pama for Pigsy and Tang respectively) cus why not? Probably has a small crisis at the age he realises that he's not Freenoodles bio-kid.
Bai He likes following/tagging along on noodle drives to hang out with her big bro (and play Pokemon Go). She tags along with MK on the fateful delivery that leads to him getting the staff.
Bai He is the type of little kid to look the newly-resurrected Demon Bull King in the eye and loudly proclaim; "HEY! You leave my gēge alone you bully!", causing MK to panic even harder about the situation they're both in. (Though DBK & PIF are struck impressed by the human calf's daring).
When MK gains the Monkey King himself as his mentor - Bai He respectively gains a shadowy bodyguard.
Things after New Years however? Well...
Lets just say that LBD cannot hide from the fury of the Golden Cicada :)

Listen to Life is a Tire Swing here
Listen to Bama Breeze here
Trivia and Propaganda below:
Life is a Tire Swing:
Jimmy explained the creation of this song during a 1974 concert: "When The Morning Comes with Linda Rondstadt, which I love and I was just cruising along about 55 not speeding or anything. I looked over to the right and there was this huge old house, farm house, with about 8 cars up on blocks, tractor, and there was this tire swing in the front yard, and I went wow, that’s just great now I know how to finish the song, now I’ve seen one and I’m not just working from memory. And coming back I did the gig that night and had to catch a 6 o’clock plane in the morning so I was driving straight back through and I fell asleep at the wheel and I cracked up and hit a telephone pole managed to demolish the rent a car, and I got out without a scratch just got a sore, which I am, just a little bit, but I hit about 25 yards from the tire swing and the first thing I saw when I climbed out of the car was that tire swing and it freaked me right out and this farmer and this family came out and pulled me out of the wreck and I was just sitting there and didn’t know anybody, shaking like hell on the side of the road but I had the ending of my song. It’s a hard way to do it, but it sure did contribute to tieing it all together. It’s the first…I just finished it up and it’s still a little bit rough, but it’s one of the best things I think I’ve ever done."
Bama Breeze:
Written as a tribute to the many bars and landmarks along the gulf coast that were destroyed by hurricanes over the years, such as the FloraBama.

alabama , born karawek at birth , was born to a thai politician and his mistress . naturally , the last thing he wanted was for it to get out that he’d been unfaithful to his wife and so when his mistress turned up pregnant he sent her off on her way with a bundle of cash ( expecting she’d end the pregnancy ) and the issue would be settled . she did no such thing though , wanting to capitalize on having the child of a prominent figure . her plans quickly fell by the wayside though when she realized she simply was not cut out for motherhood , no amount of money could make her even slightly decent at it . despite that she wanted the best for her daughter , even if she couldn’t give her that . at just under six months , she put her daughter up for closed adoption . the levington’s , a prominent hollywood couple who were sure they’d never be able to have children of their own at the time , wanted to start a family . the second they came across the little girl , they fell absolutely in love and the adoption process started from there . changing her name to the name at the top of mrs. levington’s dream board , they made a point to include a part of her given name at birth as her middle name though , a thanks to her biological parents for giving them their baby girl in a way .
the eldest of what would become known as the levington clan , life for alabama was picture perfect . a close ( enough ) bond with all of her siblings and two loving parents . not to mention the money and fame that came with her last name , there wasn’t much for the young girl to really ask for but that didn’t stop her from doing so . known to never really be satisfied , she’s always thought there was something bigger and better around the corner and can’t seem to stomach the idea of anyone getting such a thing over her . call it entitlement , if you’d like .
growing up in los angeles didn’t do her any favors , submerged in a world were who you are and what you look like was all that really mattered . her mother was the first to jump on any chance to make her precious little girl the absolute best . taught at a young age to always step out of the house like you were walking the catwalk . you’d catch alabama dead before you ever caught her out and about in sweatpants ( to be honest , i don’t even think she owns a pair of sweatpants ) . the world really got a glimpse into how image obsessed the young girl was when she got a nose job for her sixteenth birthday . truthfully it was like some sort of right of passage among her highschool friends back then . a group of private school girls who were more cliquey than anyone could really stomach .
for as long as anyone could remember she was the most pristine of her siblings , the one who always put her best foot forward . that all changed at seventeen though after a more public break up took place , she was left distraught . the only way she knew to numb her feelings was to fall into the party scene . she drank more than her body could handle , sobered up with lines , and didn’t get home until the sun was coming up . it was a rather dark point in her life . the only silver lining being she could stop when she wanted to ( no , seriously ) , she just didn’t want to at that time . her parents only taking it seriously when she was arrested at school for possession of drugs ( truth is , the drugs weren’t even hers she was just taking the fall for a friend but that’s something that’s never gone public ) . once they bailed her out , they almost immediately shipped her off to some rehab facility in malibu . the doctors there quickly realizing they weren’t dealing with an addict by any means just a teenage girl who was upset and lashing out . it’s unfortunately a trait no one has been able to help her unlearn , to this day she’s known to be rather difficult , especially when she feels she has been done wrong . she will lash out - violently , verbally , you never really know if venomous words or a shockingly chin rocking hit are going to come from her .
after her stint in rehab , she switched highschools ( due to being expelled ) and being her quickly found herself a new group of friends at the top of the food chain , she’s a natural social climber and doesn’t really need to put too much effort into doing so . soon enough she graduated and let’s be real her grades were good enough to get her a diploma but that’s about it . college had never been in her plans and thankfully she already had a career lined up for herself in race car driving which she’d picked up around the age of thirteen when she started kart racing . it started off as her chasing an adrenaline rush but quickly turned into so much more , after her first major competition as a teenager people around her began making claims she could break records for women in the world of racing . she has gone on to proving them all right with her career breaking barriers and winning races no woman before her ever has . alabama is the first to say the way she carries herself on the tracks is much like the way she carries herself throughout life . a women in a male dominated environment who refuses to take on the spot as anything less than just as dominating as her male counterparts , unafraid of whether that makes her too much in anyone’s eyes or not .
sometime in 2017 , she was reached out to by a man who claimed to be her biological father . a shock to her system , not because she didn’t know she was adopted ( that much was clear to her ; and her parents had been rather upfront about it ) but because she knew it was a closed adoption . convinced her whole life they wanted nothing to do with her and by that point in her life she’d come to terms with that . he had disclosed that he only had so much longer on the earth ( he was very sick ) and wanted to meet the daughter that he never got to know . initially she ignored him entirely . it was her turn to shun him from her life -- she couldn’t miss someone she never knew and she refused to be disloyal to her parents , the two people in the world who chose her and loved her . after a few months though her dad explained to her that he thought it’d be best for her to meet her biological father . she sat on the idea for a couple weeks before deciding to reach out . a few days later she was on a flight to thailand . what was only supposed to be a weekend trip turned out to be a month and a half long . she connected with him and a piece of her wanted to be there for him in his last days . soon after his funeral she returned back to the states . going back to life as she knew it pretty much without a bat of her eyes . given a sort of closure she never realized she needed in her time in thailand ( even though her biological mother has never reached out , although before he passed he did give alabama the woman’s name ) .
the tabloids often have alot to say about her and her antics but one that can never be said about this nepotism baby is that she doesn’t hold loyalty and honesty in the highest regard . a true rarity in the world she lives in but alabama will fall on a sword for those closest to her ( i.e her arrest back in highschool ) , she may have a cool hard shell covering her at all times but she cares immensely about her family and those she deems her friends . she’s the girl who is still close with most of her childhood friends just simply because you never turn your back on someone ( unless they give you reason to ) .
known for having a terrible track record when it comes to the men in her life , leaving her to be deemed a scorn women by many tabloids at just the age of twenty - six . her bad luck started at seventeen and has recently been topped off with her rather distasteful split with ford , in which the whole world watched him cheat on her . to say she is the leading champion of the men suck club would be an understatement . she doesn’t trust men to save a life and frankly she feels she’s entitled to those feelings .

Cultivating Culinary Wonders: Unveiling the Power of Gum Arabic
Imagine a world where textures dance on the tongue, flavors burst forth in a symphony of delight, and aromas transport you to a sun-drenched orchard. This is the world envisioned by food and beverage artisans – a world where every creation is a masterpiece. At Sahel Agri-Sol, we understand the relentless pursuit of excellence that drives these culinary alchemists. We believe the foundation of any masterpiece lies in the quality of its ingredients, and that's where our premium gum arabic steps in.
From Ancient Origins to Modern Marvels
For centuries, gum arabic, a natural exudate from the Acacia tree, has been revered for its remarkable properties. Our story begins in the heart of Mali and Sudan, where ancient Acacia trees thrive in the sun-kissed soil. Generations of skilled farmers have passed down the knowledge of cultivating and harvesting this precious resin, ensuring its purity and integrity. We, at Sahel Agri-Sol, carry this legacy forward, combining traditional wisdom with modern techniques to cultivate exceptional gum arabic that meets the highest quality standards.

The magic of gum arabic lies in its versatility. From the delicate touch it brings to handcrafted candies to the smooth mouthfeel it creates in your favorite beverages, its applications are as diverse as a chef's imagination. Here are just a few ways gum arabic elevates culinary creations:
Beverages: Gum arabic enhances mouthfeel and clarity, creating a luxurious experience in everything from refreshing juices to rich syrups.
Confectionery: It acts as a natural binder and emulsifier, stabilizing delicate textures and preventing sugar crystallization in candies and gums.
Bakery: Gum arabic helps dough retain moisture, resulting in softer, longer-lasting baked goods.
Beyond the Kitchen: Unveiling Unexpected Applications
The power of gum arabic extends far beyond the realm of food and beverage. Its unique properties find applications in various industries, including:
Pharmaceuticals: Used as a binder and stabilizer in pill coatings and drug delivery systems.
Cosmetics: Employed as a thickener and emulsifier in lotions and creams.
Printing: Acts as a binder in inks and adhesives, ensuring vibrant colors and lasting results.
A Commitment to Sustainable Excellence
At Sahel Agri-Sol, we are committed to not only cultivating exceptional gum arabic but also ensuring environmental and social responsibility.

🍸 Happy New Years 2024🍸
I just heard someone say, another day, another dollar. Honestly, I didn't understand the meaning, so I looked it up.
'Another day, another dollar' began as a sailor's expression in the USA in the 19th century. It dates from the days when sailors were paid a dollar a day. On long voyages, each day was similar to the last, and all the seamen had to show for a day's work was one more dollar in their pocket.
Another day, another dollar. Isn't this true for so many of us? Like a sailor at sea, life is a voyage, each day similar to the last. Just as with a long voyage at sea, we will encounter storms and calm days. Each day brings with it something similar but different and unpredictable. Many of us live in a box, sleep in a box, drive in a box, eat in a box, work in a box, and then one day, we ultimately are buried in a box. Think about it. True or false?
Does the NEW YEAR genuinely have to show up for us to; become productive, discover our bliss, find true love, get out of debt, set new goals, or become physically fit?
I hate to break the news, but nothing magical will happen today, January 1st, that will fix our problems or make our dreams a reality. Other than today being my birthday, I'm one year and one day older. That's it.
The truth is that nothing other than our age will change unless we make change happen. There is no genie, magic, or overnight gift that will bring the changes we desire in our lives.
Our GRIT, habits, choices, and ability to think and take action are the actual difference makers in our lives.
My hope is that this New Year becomes whatever you wish. Life has always been super valuable to me, but I have never felt more urgency to live full out than now after losing my father and my brother-in-law a few years back.
They were full of life, full of dreams, and full of love. Knowing them as I do, their message would be to stop wasting time and live life playing full out.
No more another day, another dollar. Instead, today is a new day to make it a great day!
Happy New Year, live your life without regrets and go to bed exhausted each night, pursuing your wildest dreams because that's where the magic in your life happens.
#beautiful #mother #dad #friend #dream #bham #love #happy #smile #funny #family #grateful #god #jesus #believe #coffee #freedom #veteran #bama #crimsontide #bible #prayer #happyl #USA #rolltide #blessed #birminghamalabama #alabama #bhamalabama #peace

Bama
His days are numbered but he does not know this.
All he has known is the thick grass he lays on tummy up dozing off as his friends come and give him gentle nudges.
All he has known is a soft dog bed well before he could no longer jump on the couch.
All he has known warmth when it was too cold to venture outside.
I wonder what he’s thinking when he looks at the sky,
Watching the clouds and the cars drive down the road,
I hope he’s thinking of us
I hope he knows he is loved

The maintenance guy here curls his lip up when he sees me.
I don't know why.
I think he's displeased with the way I keep house,
But I just got a lotta books, man, and this big ass Z rack is needed because I can't build a booth in this apartment.
It's either Melvin or Marvin, I can't remember his name
But he's Black American with a Bama sticker on his truck.
I was driving up just now and he had this look of disgust on his face when he saw me,
Shoutout to Paul Ekman and his groundbreaking work on microexpressions.
I know disgust when I see it, even when it's not verbalized.

OMG! You AU is AMAZING!!! This is exactly what I needed in my life!!
Can you please make a Part 2 of “A Hero is Born Changes” where it’s just Sun Wukong and Macaque messing with MK with their double life? Like they know everything that’s happening but pretend that nothing is happening and it’s driving MK crazy? (Sorry my english is bad). Thank you.
ty for being so interested! Your english is fine btw!
If I write more about "A Hero is Born Changes", it will most likely be as a proper fic chapter.
MK getting his powers for the first time and not wanting to tell his parents cus they're on vacation and he doesn't want to worry them. Meanwhile; Wukong and Macaque are secretly watching the initial confrontation with the Demon Bull family and are So Scared but Proud for their little guy.
Both have a near breakdown when the gang thinks MK was killed by the lava around Flower Fruit Mountain, but thankfully SWK is able to relay that he's ok to the noodle gang via astral projection/text message.
The Six Eared Macaque and The Monkey King meet MK inside the Water Curtain Cave.
And ofc MK still stomps on SWK's butterfly form in shock.
SWK: *does his big introduction*
Macaque, just walks in from the shadows: " Show-off"
Macaque and Wukong continue to argue with each other for the rest of the pilot; Macaque being more of a worrier, while Wukong is more lax.
*Both in disguise, watching the climatic battle*
Macaque: "We really should intervene."
Wukong: "Relax, he'll be fine. He's our kid after all."
MK: *crashes the jet straight into Red Son*
Macaque: *glares at Wukong*
Wukong: "...to be fair. I said he'd fine. Red Boy? Not so much."
Macaque: "I swear Gongzhu (PIF) will kill you the second we meet up again."
Wukong, fake disapointment: "Oh no~, as if dinner with my sworn in-laws wasn't bad enough already."
They argue so much that they nearly miss MK's first victory.
After MK defeats DBK and the Bull family retreats, Macaque and Sun Wukong show back up at the noodle shop. Just sitting inside the shop with fake luggage, vacation clothes (think S4 beach ending clothes), and pretending they don't know what happened.
MK: "Bama! Baba! You're back! So much happened today I dunno where to start!"
Wukong: "Don't worry about it bud. We've got all day to listen!"
MK: "How was your vacation by the way?"
Macaque: "It was... good. We're just glad that we're back home safe and sound.
*cue family group hug including the rest of the noodle gang*
I'll be definitely writing it in greater detail than here, but thats the general gist of it.

The Main Factors To Consider When Buying A Beginner Motorcycle We’d urge any new rider to hone their skills on an entry-level machine before stepping up to a larger bike at a later date.
#Beastrun motorcycle driver
To frame things in a more digestible manner, think of it like this you probably wouldn’t advise a new driver to learn the basics behind the wheel of a Lamborghini or Hellcat-engined muscle car, and a new rider starting on a full-size motorcycle (or even a 600cc i4) is an equally atrocious, and even more dangerous idea.
#Beastrun motorcycle skin
If you look at motorcycle crash statistics, the vast majority of wrecks involve riders within their first six months on the road, that are piloting machines that are objectively too large relative to their skin level, commencing their careers on full-size cruisers or cutting-edge superbikes. By starting on an appropriate model relative to your skin and experience level, you give yourself now only the best chance of growing as a rider, but you also minimize the likelihood of an easily avoidable wreck. Not only are bigger bikes less forgiving and more difficult to ride, but they also impede a new rider’s ability to learn, grow, and progress as a rider, as too much effort and energy is spent on keeping the bike in check, rather than focusing on the primary fundamentals of riding like vision and body positioning. When compared to small-displacement, entry-level models, full-size motorcycles are markedly more difficult to control, with ultra-sensitive controls that allow for a minimal margin of error. Why Starting Small When Riding Is The Way To Go So without further adieu, let’s get into it.
#Beastrun motorcycle how to
In addition to counting down our picks for the most learner-friendly models, we’ll also be exploring what to consider when shopping as well as how to find the right bike for you, and why it’s so crucial to start your riding career on a learner-friendly model. So, with this in mind, we’ve thoroughly scoured the entry-level moto market to deliver this guide to the best beginner motorcycles. And while this segment was once limited to only a handful of models (looking at you, original Honda Rebel and Kawi Ninja 250), the entry-level motorcycle class currently boasts more options than any previous time in the history of motorcycling.ĭespite the abundant number of choices, it can still be intimidating to purchase a new type of vehicle for the first time, and this very much extends to the two-wheeled realm. Add to that the fact that piloting a motorcycle is a markedly more active and involved experience than driving a car, and you can quickly start to see why it’s so important to start one’s riding career on an appropriately sized, entry-level machine. I always dread the 90's with high humidity we get here in Bama in summer, makes for unconformable ride but again I say the crotch cooler keeps away from your inner thigh.Motorcycles lack the protective benefits of an automobile’s shell, airbags, and crumple zones, and, as such, expose the rider to far more danger. On his new one he installed two small fans blowing directly on each cylinder which he can control from on and off from switch on bars.You cannot even see then unless you look closely. I even know of one guy in my IMRG group who dropped an exhaust valve waiting in traffic. That is one of the biggest complaints on the TS111.I have ridden in the 40's and it still gets hot when stop and go required.Lots of guys have removed the Cat to keep them cooler.Get it checked and get a crotch cooler from Captain Itch. These cylinders get way too hot,as for yours I would take it back as you said to make sure no leaks anywhere. Exhaust pipe right down your right legs,These beast run way too hot, I suspect you cannot build an engine any bigger with out water cooling it. My Vintage ran just as hot as mine Chieftain when stock. It should have cooled down SOME with Indian A/C, I installed the Captain Itch chaps and they deflect the heat away.
