Yeah, not bad for a phone ;-)

A big part of my reason for shutting down the grow is my son being 10 and wanting to have friends over all the time. Kind of don't want any of the parents to find out I grow. Best way to do that is don't grow. It'll be until I get the balls to sit him down and talk to him about what daddy grows in the garage. I haven't come up with a good time to talk to him yet.
i waited and waited and waited and waited never did find right time but they move out eventually,hopefully

I really enjoyed you video Doob. Good stuff and your scooter sounds good with the exhaust. I'm curious, what was your new top speed? I bet it accelerates a lot better than stock with an upgraded exhaust, modded intake and new map.

Hi, dez :-)
The top speed hasn't increased, surprisingly, it's still 42mph, but it can now hold it's speed on all the hills I have to deal with, and can accelerate up a lot of them.
Before the mods, it would lose about 10mph or more going up the same hills.
The next thing I'll be upgrading is the contra spring in the clutch to eliminate the last bit of up-hill struggle.
I still have some adjusting to do to the fuel map, so I might be able to squeeze out a few more mph on the top end.
Going to get some decent Pirelli's this summer, hopefully a little taller tire, too, so I can get an extra 2 mph.

is it governed to the 42 maybe? i know a lot of states regulate them to under 45mph

The Honda Metropolitan for 2013 was restricted to 36mph via the electronics and the transmission's variator, as well as a narrow exhaust pipe, and restrictive metal plate behind the air filter element.
Since all of those short comings have been mitigated, I think it's mostly not increasing past 42mph because I really need to spend a couple of days incrementally changing the fuel map until I just can't get more power out of it.
The contra spring will be a huge help with transitioning the clutch pully as RPM decreases up hills so that it will stop losing speed on all but the worst hills, and will accelerate better in traffic when not in WFO throttle.
These little CVT's are tricky-ish to tune, but I'm understanding it better as time goes by.
My ultimate goal was to hit 45mph on level ground, and I think I can get there with some fine tuning, and for sure when I change to a taller tire.
It has 80/100-10 sized tires, so I'm going to look into some 100/100-10 tires which will add 2.7mph to my top speed (will raise it to 44.7mph).
So I think 45 is attainable with the final tune up, and slightly taller tires.
But that's the limit of what I'm comfortable with in regards to brakes & shocks.
Those will be upgraded this coming June.
But that will be all that I do to it, except maintenance & repairs and cosmetic changes.
Provided my back & shoulders keep improving, I'm going to definitely get back into a full size bike within two years.
Just not sure if it will be a Ninja 300, or a CBR500R, but I'm leaning towards the 300.

I like those 300 ninjas a lot. They're definitely comparable to that cbr500. I test rode a 500x and it was fun but it felt quite a bit heavier than the little ninja. I'd say the 500 felt better on the on ramp but overall I like the ninja. The bigger bike makes more torque so it feels quicker.

I like that they're (the Ninja 300) so light & nimble.
It's a close call between them, for me.
But the cost out-the-door is a major thing when comparing the two, and maintenance & tune-ups
It'll be an enjoyable 1st World problem to have to pick one when the time comes to buy. ;-)

Loved the video Doobie! You passed the SUV going up a hill! I was hoping to get to go inside the dispensary too - oh well.

Prayers are with you Giggles!

I just told my 25 year old about my hobby 2 years ago. Her younger sister suspected what was up since she was 14 but was never quite sure. I wasn't growing back then and I only smoked on rare occasions (when my Oregon drummer was in town).

9 weeks is a long time to grow a plant from seed in veg. Or seems it.

I was down button ben the other day, cleared out all the pots, filled up about 8 bin bags, took 2 away on my bike, one in the ruck sack, the other over the handle bars (which ripped part of the bag - so I was like Steve McQueen in the great escape with soil pouring off my bike on the way up the road to the nearest place I could dispose of them)...our location only has streetside bin collection on specific days.....I then ask my friend if he has got rid of the rest of the bags on the rubbish day...NOPE! I totally forgot. FFS, raging, got to wait until next week to get the babas under the lights.
