Good evening everyone, I have a question on my first street bike Id like to get. I'm 16, am very tall (6'5") and would want a relatively nice commuting bike ( say 80 miles total a day to work etc), however it has to be nice for occasional 300 mile rides to my other state where family lives. I'm looking at both a 2012 Honda CBR250R and a Ninja 650R. Now I know the size difference is rather large, but I'm trying to think further down the road if I'll "grow out of a 250." I'm going to look at them in person soon, but haven't had the chance, and would like fellow motorcyclist opinions.

For my build and introduction to two wheel street bikes, what's your opinions?

Thanks guys

I'm relatively new to welding, and very new to pipe welding. I found some pipe laying around and wondered if my current setup can be used with this thin of pipe?

40-235A AC stick welder, and I have 6011 3/32 and 1/8 rods.

Could 3/32 on 40A work well?

This isn't structural, just for fun.

hey there, first off, im most likely going to sign up to be a marine when im 18, but just a couple things i was wondering! (forgive me, im new with it still)

is an "infantry" position in the marine corps basically on the front lines etc? id like a job more of what you see soldiers in iraq partaking in, if im wrong, please correct me :P.

also, this is just a random question, but can you purchase your own weapons etc (approved by your higher ups of course) for instance, if i dont like my pistol, can i purchase my own to use? and same with like red dot sights for my rifle etc, or is there a ranking system one must follow prior to being able to upgrade equipment?

i appreciate all advice, and thank those of you who were/are/are concidering the service, my life is forever yours.

helllloo there, i have a quick question. im looking to sell my Ruger mini 14 .223 ranch rifle (plastic stock, not wood) and a smith and wesson tactical 9 9mm pistol to cabelas due to financial reasons etc. now i know a proper appraisal needs to visually check the gun out, but i was just curious of a price point i may be looking at if both are exceptionally excelent condition (exceptionally meaning without box etc). correct me if im off on this guess, but if the mini 14 was sold to me for around 715$ new, if cabelas buys it for maybe a third of that to be able to sell for around 500 used at thier store? so maybe realistically would i be looking at 250 MAYBE?.. also i have a 3-9x bushnell scope on there im throwing in, so thats where i figure out the 250 total possibly.. and the pistol, i bought for..375?..if they are selling around 4-500$ ( confused i know! what ive recently seen around web..:?) id maybe on a good day be looking at..100-150$?.. so maybe a total of 400$ or so..

whats your expert round about guestimates you can provide me!?

thank you very much! :)

I'm in the dreaming/ questioning stages of getting a german shepherd, and would like to know the expected costs for about the first year on average for a larger dog like this! I have experience with my mom having a yorkie etc, so if I could get an average cost, I'd appreciate it!

how much would an excelent condition mini 14 go for with 2 20rd mags in your oppinion? ..think: im selling it to a Cabelas so it wont be direct sell to someone else, its to a profiting store

hey there, ive been having this irritating question for months now, you see, in short, my uncle was growing pot in the woods behind his house, and was caught, so through court etc, they let him go, but he couldnt be in posession of a firearm. now, with our house on the opposite side of his home, maybe about a football field's distance between homes, if i have licensed firearms etc, can i still handle weapons around my house, and or go hunting without having to use thier families consent? its a PITA to hear we cant even shoot at targets because they dont want attention being drawn to him..i mean..i dont see how i could be breaking the law, because A) its my right to have firearms, and B) should be able to practice shooting, but not around him! no where near him! so do you agree that i should be able to use it however i may (safely)? why should i have to suffer for somebody elses problem where we dont affiliate with them? ( sorry i sound paranoid.but...it irks me!) thanks for your imput
