Looking for feedback on Canik TP9 SFx
My local bass pro has a used one for 350 beans. Only the gun and 1 mag. Doesn’t appear to be a lot of wear and tear but lacking all the accessories. Is it a good buy?

Scar x Arken (ft. Prodigy)
Scalpers hung me to dry buying the MI rail extension I had no money for leupold scope (kidding. Sort of 😂). Honestly for 280 beans I just wanted to see what Arken could do. First impressions out of the box it’s super clear and the turrets are very crisp no play in them. I grabbed the prodigy on sale and it’s almost a perfect match in the green cerakote on the scar. Obviously the most important thing is to have matching secondary when the commies fall from the sky 😉😂
I need to get a different exhaust for my 2025 fatboy as the VH short shots are dumping under my passenger pegs. I’m also aware they are not the best for power even though aesthetically I like them a lot.
Looking at either the Bassani Road Rage or the Blockhead M8 with their breacher tip.
The blockhead doesn’t use heat shields and I would wrap the pipes. That’s a pro to me because heat shields are PITA. The bassani is equal length header pipes and has a unique curvature to the design as a result
Any input is welcome
Brought home the ‘25 fat boy tonight! Haven’t ridden in 2.5 years so I put it on rain mode to get my wits about me again. Within 3 miles I was itching to crack the throttle and let her eat! Unfortunately still in break in but damn she’s got power!! It’s exactly how I pictured riding it, and that’s a great thing. To anyone on the fence about trying Harley if you’re coming from sport bikes, definitely try it. The comfort and torque is incredible even on the rain setting. I’m sold!! I have a couple weeks before my 511 cam comes in so I can see the difference when it’s done compared to now.
Bought my first Harley today at Dallas HD in Garland TX. As a younger guy myself I didn’t think I’d see anything I liked when I visited the store last week. But the new fat boy styling was exactly what I was looking for. The part that really sold me was the extensive parts and accessories catalogue that I can really personalize the bike. No sport bike brand has that level of customization. It’s a 2025 and came with VH pipes and the heavy breather. Having stage 2 511 cam put in. Last bike I owned was a 2023 ZX6R. So the torque will take some getting used to 😂
Also looking for people in east Dallas area who might want to ride. I’m new to the area and not sure what’s good
Oh and the folks at Dallas HD were great to deal with. The parts guy Steve was super patient as I spent and hour going over parts I’d like to add and finding cross reference numbers. They really went out of their way to earn my business and made me feel like I was investing in a community not just a bike
Recently moved to Dallas TX area and considering a bike to commute with (roughly 25-30 miles one way) and something my wife wouldnt mind being on the back of for weekend rides.
I still like to have fun but coming from a ZX6, I want something more mature. I think I know the multi probably has the best ride and comfort but how is the diavel for a passenger? I added the streetfighter to the mix just to hear some opinions lol.
Not opposed to XDiavel, but local dealer has better deals on Diavel
I am coming from a very union heavy state who has union reps in the pocket of the governor. While I did gain valuable experience, there were sometimes it drove me up a wall as a manger. On the flip side, the guys under me said I was one of the best they had and would miss me, and I still get happy holiday texts from a few of them. I was fair and I think they saw that. But damn did it drain my patience.
What’s the culture/ environment like with the unions in Texas? What is management’s view towards the union? Is it constant tension or reasonable outside of bargaining time?
I’m super happy with how this turned out and the elusive MI rail extension. Waited 12 weeks to have it coated(peak season), the shop did an amazing job particularly with taping the top and bottom rails for the black. The line is so straight it looks factory. Now for finishing it out with an optic and some accessories. This was done by Wicked Weaponry in New Hampshire and they do take shipping. Check out their instagram
Full disclaimer, I’ve seen eerily similar posts recently but out of respect I won’t hijack and just ask my own specific question. Sorry for what will probably feel very similar
My wife got a TJO at the Dallas VA around beginning of May. She did all her onboarding. They even sent her email to schedule picking up her employee badge. Last Thursday 6/11 she decided to email the manager she will report to because HR had gone silent. He said he spoke with HR and her start date was 6/29, as we missed the deadline for 6/15! I was shocked because we werent hearing anything so obviously 6/15 was out of the question anyway for us personally. The issue now is she still doesn’t have a final offer. Way back originally the manager mentioned they were going to consider a higher step for entry. But that was over a month ago. We are now planning to leave for DFW 6/22 without a FJO?
Additionally my wife got concenered because she emailed HR again today and CC the manager, the only reply she got back was that HR was on a “stand down” and would return August 9, 2023?? Seems like an old auto reply but given their absolute radio silence idk?
I’m needing to offload my house asap due to my wife getting a great job at the Dallas VA hospital. I’m offering my VA loan assumption to veterans only, and I have 4.99% locked. (Not the best but better than current) I’m within a commutable distance to Pease AFB. If interested PM me and I’ll send you the Redfin listing.
Posting under equipment for sale because it will be shortly. I am relocating to Texas and plan to use this to move everything with my truck. It’s 26k gvw with all new tires and clean title. 40+4 max ramps. My question revolves around what these sell for in Texas, mainly Dallas area. I’m trying to see if it’s worth it for me to buy and sell off. I won’t have a place to keep it once I’m down there so I have to sell. I figure you guys would have a good idea since you’re the likely user of something like this typically
First timer in your beautiful country, we had to spend one night in in humule right across from artificial beach before going to our resort the next day. Unfortunately there was a huge political protest. It appeared there was an official (mdp I think?) gathering on the beach and then some other group with a huge sound system set up in the street to drown out the official gathering. What’s the deal? It was basically just two people on microphones screaming over each other and then using blaring music to try and silence it. Can anyone explain the players and what the contention is in laymen’s terms?
