Beautiful bike. I've got a '14 STR in white and red and I love it. I don't think I'll ever sell it.

Why terrifying?

My spouse and I rode our motorcycles from the Midwest to the East Coast over Thursday and Friday. We've spent the weekend hanging out with family and friends that we haven't seen in months. It's been a good time and we'll be here for the rest of the week.

Interesting. I'm not seeing my instance in there at all.

How can you check to see if your instance is federated with them?

I like to drink Body Armor when I'm cycling or riding my motorcycle on a hot day.

 

The previous owner had swapped in some crappy single-tone horn for some reason and the wiring was pretty sketchy. Went in to fix the wiring and decided to upgrade the horn along the way.

I actually do customer support for a faxing service. You'd be amazed how widely used it is still.

The mesh ends up being pretty similar every time, showing that the right side of the bed is lower than the left. The concern is that, when printing after auto leveling, the nozzle is far too close on the right side, causing first layer issues, but all is well on the left. It's almost like the printer believes that the nozzle is further from the bed than it actually is, but only on one side.

I found that the bolts holding the gantry to the base had come loose slightly, and tightened them. That seemed to help a bit, but the issue is still there. I was going to try leveling the x gantry, but I'm still trying to figure out how to do so.

I did some research and was able to pull the mesh. I put it into a visualizer and found that the right side is definitely incorrect (as it matches with the "too low" behavior that I'm seeing. I tried to copy the image here, but Sync won't let me, but here's the values.

The bed leveling is done with the bed and nozzle preheated to printing temp. As for the probe, it's the stock probe on the Ender 3 Max Neo.

The interesting part is the heat soak. I typically heat it and then only wait a minute or two. I'll let it sit for a while and try again.

How do you edit, or even view, the map that's built?

 

When printing on my Ender 3 Max Neo (stock except for a PEI bed), the right side of the bed is always printing too close. I manually leveled the bed, and then I run the auto-leveling sequence. I also have it set to run auto-level before every print, and confirmed that it's enabled using M420 S1 after the G29 in the opening gcode.

I also disabled it in one test with M420 S0 and confirmed that it is making a difference so it appears to be working, but the auto-level map seems to be incorrect every time. Any ideas?

Kriega makes great bags! I use a US-20 Drybag from them and absolutely love it. Easy to put on and take off of my KLR and I'd trust it to keep anything dry. It's also easy to move around to other bikes, especially if you get an extra set of straps.

 

I'm pretty new to 3d printing as I just got an Ender 3 Max Neo for Christmas. I've been playing around with various filaments from Inland and Creality, but I'm having odd results with the Creality ones.

When using the Creality filaments, my prints get random holes, or outright fail, because of gaps when it's extruding. The roll is not tangled and my extruder doesn't appear to be slipping. I've tried adjusting speed, temperatures, flow, z offset, etc, but nothing is fixing the random gaps. The Inland filaments are working great and are very consistent. Any help is appreciated.

 

Trying to repair a Hyperkin Duke Xbox controller where the left trigger doesn't respond. Found that the resistance of this potentiometer doesn't change when it's moved, so I'm looking to replace it. I'm a novice with this stuff though and I'm having trouble identifying it. Any help is appreciated.

 

I've got a 1984 Honda Elite 125 scooter and it misfires at top speed. At WOT, it pulls up to 48 MPH and starts popping and surging. Backing down to about 90% throttle smooths it out and brings it up to 50-51 MPH. I've tried changing the main jets and it makes no difference. It changes how hard and smoothly it accelerates, but it still starts stumbling at the same point.

I was thinking it had a rev limiter of some kind, but changing the CDI also had no impact.

So far, the carb has been replaced (PO put a 250 carb on it for some reason and it still had the same issue, but was running FAR too rich). Ignition coil, spark plug, plug wire, and CDI have all been replaced as well without change.

 

For some reason, I get an error whenever I try to post any text or image to any federated communities. This happens in WefWef, Connect, and Jerboa on Android. Haven't tried any other apps/sites yet.

I'm not sure if local ones work, but if you can see this post, then I guess it worked.
