Hello PackMecEng.

Would you please further explain your revert [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User%3AAdoring_nanny%2FEssays%2FLab_Leak_Likely&diff=1165093692&oldid=1165090308 here]. “Not needed just yet, please see the recent afd”.

What is your interest in this essay, or [[User:Adoring nanny]]?

What is your criteria for “needed”? If not “just yet”, then when? Do you know the difference between mfd and afd? You did not participate in the mfd, so why the interest now and not during the mfd?

How is it going with your Triumph Trident? I did eventually get the Speed Twin (the 1200) soon after our conversation. In fact, I started a YouTube Channel that features it. -- Scjessey (talk) 15:20, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Its been pretty great actually! Though wondering if I wouldn't mind getting a cruiser sister to go with it. It is hard to have just one sometimes. I will have to check out your channel more, always loved the look of the Speed Twins. =) PackMecEng (talk) 01:06, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have been considering getting a Triumph Tiger Sport 660, which is like a touring version of your Trident. The Speed Twin isn't really comfortable enough for all-day riding, and I've had to pass up on a few group rides where having a more comfortable tourer would've been handy. -- Scjessey (talk) 14:56, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Kind of the same thing I have run into! I am just not sure what I would really want to get. I am to short for an adventure bike and not really looking for a classic bagger. I like the Harley Sportster S but I am not sure how that would do on real long distance. PackMecEng (talk) 01:08, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm. If you are looking for a lower height but with more long-distance comfort, I'd probably recommend a Honda Rebel 500; however, you would have to rely on panniers and a tank bag if you wanted to tour extensively. -- Scjessey (talk) 15:59, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Adoring_nanny’s essay on Lab leaks.

Hello PackMecEng.

Would you please further explain your revert here. “Not needed just yet, please see the recent afd”.

What is your interest in this essay, or User:Adoring nanny?

What is your criteria for “needed”? If not “just yet”, then when? Do you know the difference between mfd and afd? You did not participate in the mfd, so why the interest now and not during the mfd?
