Yay Updates

And seeing you all care.. Here is an update on my life

My car is now fucked as. the clutch is now 90% gone, the front right break pad has worn down so much the casings for the pad are scratching the break disk. and i have had a broken window for about a month now.. oh, and I’m fairly sure he has only been running on 3/4 cylinders for at least 6

Not to be a piker, but a bike is about the same as a car to own. They cost less in fuel, but pretty much evrything else is more expensive; $500 for a service every 5000km, $300/tire, not to mention the gear you need to stay warm/dry in winter.

Financially; keep the car and get a service manual/haynes book
- Clutch you can do pretty easily with 2 people (need to lift the trans out) and a recon-ed clutch is around $100 from supercheap
- Brakes are a piece of cake, pads will be like $50 for the fronts OR rears and are easy to change (took me an hour to do all 4 corners last weekend)
- Windows are like $15 from U-Pull-It
- A tune-up to get it running well will be like $300 at most.

Bikes are so much more expensive due to how specialized they are compared to cars.

From what my experience anyway

HOWEVER, there's nothing else like riding when the weather is nice out.
