    Did a quick search and didn't see anything recent so opening up the topic. For those that conceal carry on bikes, what position have you found the most comfortable and how do you secure your firearm if you have to leave it behind? I daily appendix, but can't get comfy on long stretches on my...

    Switching from 4 to 2 wheel solo travel

    Without doing a complete overshare, I just finished a divorce of my high school sweetheart and I am wanting to get out on the road and explore to clear my mind. Her family introduced me to the concept of overlanding when I was 18 (now 31) and have spent a lot of time cruising around the pacific...

    Question for those that have used the Timbren suspension system...

    What capacity did you use and what was the overall weight? Also how did it preform? I can't seem to find any information on what the sweet spot is for the system...

    APRS Dog Collar

I'm a fairly new HAM with about 6 months under my belt, primarily playing with the WIN system repeater network.

    LED Headlight Converion Bulbs?

    Has anyone seen these in use in person? I'm really curious about the beam pattern. Seems light a great idea but I'm concerned that they would suffer the same light scatter issues that HID conversion kits do. For those that don't know, HID kits change the position of the point of light emission...

    Radius Arm Suspension

    After I wrap up my current truck project I'm thinking about building a gear trailer. I have some FZJ80 radius arms left over from an abandoned project and I'm thinking they would be good to re-purpose for this application in a trailing arm arrangement. I'm thinking that it would allow for more...

    Fast and Light Expedition Impreza

    So the purpose of this build is actually mainly to set the car up as a fun "rally" car, but seeing as I love the prospect of overlanding and a lot of the modifications will be will be relevant I'd thought I'd share. It will mainly be used for travel in Death Valley and Saline Valley but I have...

    stator capacity upgrade?

    I have kind of an odd ball question. I'm in the process of building a bike engine powered locost (lotus 7 replica's that are sub 1000 pounds) and one thing I want to be able to do is be able to run is run 110 watts worth of lights additional to the roughly 200 watts that will be minimally...
