    Itchy Boots goes Vintage

    I totally agree with questioning of speedo and fuel pump removal, but in general I see this as an interesting concept bike or/and an experiment. Now, I will definitely watch her new season to see how this bike will hold and perform and what changes/repairs will be done if needed. Love it already...

    Itchy Boots goes Vintage

    Watched the second episode of the new season where they break down this new bike in details. Pretty cool design by the guy who seems to know everything about Yamahas of that era. Now I can imagine how his business will profit from this exposure, would be interesting to know how many of those...

    Getting custom ear plugs made

    Interesting, how deep these go into your ear canals? And how tight they fit? When I had mine first pair ready I wanted to try them right away and I couldn’t even put them in LOL, tech explained me how to do it - some water (spit) and twisting 180 gets them into place - bingo = definitely better...

    Getting custom ear plugs made

    Hearing Clinics custom plugs are terribly overpriced (x3-x4 times), but the process is the same as I see it - they put soft rubber into your ear, let it harden, form it a bit after to smooth sides and last step is to cover it with protective surface layer.
