Gears
Some gear that I have and typically use.
Motorcycles
Suzuki SV650s
This is my 2002 SV650s. I bought it for $300 and it was a sad pile of trash. I spent the 2023/24 winter getting it back into safe running shape in preparation for the 2024 racing season with the Utah Super Bike Association. It has an '06 GSX-R front end, with ZX-6r rear shock and mildly sticky DOT tires. I don't expect to do particularly well but I want to get as many laps as I can under my belt and learn more for the 2025 season. My goal is to place firmly toward the middle of the pack overall in the championship standings and to come in the top 1/3rd for at least 2 of the 5 rounds in Lightweight Superbike.
Kawasaki GPz 550 (KZ550-H2)
This is my 1983 Kawasaki GPz 550. It was my dad's highschool friends bike that sat in a garage from 2003 -> 2022. In '22 I took ownership and did a "medium" overhaul during the winter. From front to back: Cleaned the rims, rebuilt the forks, fabricated a new triple clamp cover, repainted the calipers, rebuilt both the front and rear brakes, de rusted the gas tank, checked and adjusted the valves, checked compression, checked the ignition system, and rebuilt the carburetors (including replacing the vacuum rubbers). I also brought the gas tank, fairing, and front fender to a paint shop to be repainted in factory "Firecracker Red" with the proper stripes. This is currently my track bike and "Sunday cruising" machine. It's so choice to ride, very smooth and a beauty to look at with an extremely clean classic look.
Yamaha Bolt C-Spec
This is my 2015 Yamaha Bolt C-Spec. This was my first bike and it's something of a dog. I love to ride it, but it's uncomfortable. Big in the wrong places, small in the wrong places. The steering geometry is terrible. The ground clearance is poor. The engine however is excellent for an "in town cruiser". All the power is always there. Can rev high, but doesn't mind staying under 5k. In short, don't buy this bike, but if you did you're going to have a good time.
Shooting Gear
WWSD AR-15
This is my AR based on the What Would Stoner Do project from InRangeTv. I have a KP-15 lower, Aero Precision upper, SLT-2 Trigger, Faxon 16" Pencil Barrel, ALG 13" hand guard, and a red dot with magnifier. Very boring, basic, cheap, and light AR.
SCAR 17s
Sure is a 308 gun that just works with M80 ball. It has a Sig Romeo 6T 1-6x scope, and a Harris bipod on it most of the time.
Sig p320 X-Vtac w/ Delta Point Pro
My primary competition gun. Sig 320 X-FCU in a Wilson Combat compact grip with tungsten weights. Slide mounted Delta Point Pro. Finished with a Streamlight TLR-1HL.
Beretta 92 GD
My production hand gun for competition. I have changed this to use the G style decocker only lever rather than the safety decocker. I also upgraded the springs with the M-Carbo kit.
PF940c
Why buy a Glock when you can make your own? Well the Glock probably works more consistently, or at least more consistently than my P80... Whatever this is my striker fire gun. It still needs some more rounds through it before I want to bring it to competition. It's not quite smooth at the moment.
Computer Gear
MU-TH-UR
This is my desktop. Right now it's Windows 10 and a WSL install of Debian. Using the right tool for the job makes life much simpler. Windows and Linux together combine to be all the tools you need.
LV-426
This is my laptop. Its and old beat to shit Asus GL-551 that has Linux Mint & Windows 10 on it. The Windows partition has Steam installed as well for gaming elsewhere.
VoiceMeeter Potato
The best tool I know of for managing multiple audio streams on one computer. There are three levels of VoiceMeeter and Potato is the most complex. Potato also has the capacity to be a sound board. Very much worth having in games and discord servers.
Net Limiter 4
If you are trying to manage your desktops network traffic there is no competition for NetLimiter. It is my fire wall and manages my network traffic. It lets you deny, prioritize, and cap each process and even types of internet requests from processes on your machine. There is a free version and trial of the pro version. That 29.95 is some of the best I have put into my PC.
Wallpaper Engine
Want a cool custom moving and possibly interactive wallpaper for your Windows desktop? Go get Wallpaper Engine and combine it with Rainmeter for a pretty slick looking desktop.
Rainmeter
A tool for interactive desktop that pairs very well with Wallpaper Engine to make my desktop.
Classic Shell
Do you still want updates from Microsoft, so you have Windows 10 installed, but you hate the aesthetics and function of parts? No problem go get Classic Shell. I only really use the start menu portion, but there are some pretty cool tools hidden in there.
Clover
Do you like Chineseium? Do you also want to cram some of that shit into the windows file explorer? Well I have and it's pretty slick. Clover adds chrome style tabs to explorer. Very useful for me.
Sublime Text 3
My plain text editor. It's got some syntax highlighting, but the multi-cursor function is the real reason why I like Sublime.
Hot Dox V2
I recently upgraded from a homemade ergodox to a prefab Hot Dox V2. I mostly wanted the flexible layers and mapping from ergodox. Then add the features of backlighting, single side function, and USB-C. I did retain nearly the same layout and the same key caps.
Razer Basilisk Ultimate
Wires are annoying when you wanna whip your hand across your desk quickly and the best version of a wireless mouse is the Basilisk. If I had one thing to improve it would be Razer Synapse. Razer should stick to hardware design and outsource EVERY SINGLE LINE OF CODE somewhere else.
Elecom M-XT3DRBK
I really like track balls for laptop use and desktop browsing. I started out with the Logitech m570 and eventually wore out the buttons like many users of those mice do. I then stumbled upon what I would consider to be a strict upgrade and a much better design. I have broken one however because I dropped it and it then got run over by a van when I was on my way to a friends how to do a group project.
Audio-Technica ATX M40x
A pretty decent set of headphones that I use when gaming. Go listen to some headphones with the same source and pick the ones you want. I bought these for gaming, not for music so the audio curve is pretty flat.
