Motorcycle News Noise Regulations in the EU and Radar Love
EU is changing rules on motorcycle news and Honda wants to reflect radar.
What you need to know: EU tightens motorcycle noise regulations. They are not changing the regulation (UN-ECE Regulation R41.05), for new motorcycles, but on how the regulation is tested. Currently regulation requires motorcycles on the road (without the engine running) at 31MPH (50kph) would have to be the same volume as the same bike travelling at 31MPH with the engine running. Starting in…

A Hard Day
Rosa Diaz x autistic!fem!reader Warnings: autism struggles, overstimulation (the autism kind not the sex kind), explicit language, soft Rosa <3 (if I've missed anything please let me know!) Word Count: 1.4k
Summary: Rosa leaves work in the middle of the day to help you after you get overstimulated. She starts to realize that she really, really cares about you.
“I gotta go,” Rosa said, standing abruptly mid-text.
“Wow, skipping out on the job, Diaz?” Jake joked, spinning around in his chair. “It’s only 3:00.”
Rosa didn’t answer, pulling on her coat and rummaging in her bag for her keys.
“What, you can’t wait until the end of the work day to make out with your new girlfriend?”Jake waggled his eyebrows.
She glared at him. “Not that it’s any of your fucking business,” Rosa growled, “but she’s having a hard day.”
Jake puckered his lips, an exaggerated expression of sadness. “Aw,” he cooed in a baby voice. “Y/N needs her little girlfriend to kiss it better?”
Rosa’s arm shot out to grab Jake’s collar, so quickly and forcefully that he yelped. “She’s autistic, jackass. Her bad days aren’t like ours.”
Jake looked uncomfortable as Rosa let him go, shoving him back into his seat so hard he rolled away a bit.
“Sorry,” he muttered. “Tell her, uh… good luck with the autism?”
Rosa rolled her eyes and stared at him. “You’re an idiot. Tell anyone about this and I’ll shove my boot so far down your throat the heel comes out your ass.”
He grimaced. “You’re a real poet, Rosa.”
But she was already gone, already on her motorcycle, already racing to your apartment at speeds she might have pulled someone over for.
She was quiet when she got to your apartment, quiet as she let herself in, quiet as she took off her leather jacket and set her bag by the door. Noise was one of your biggest triggers, so Rosa was careful not to add any. She found you in the corner of your bedroom–lights off, curtains closed, oversized hoodie pulled over your head, swinging your body back and forth, back and forth.
You looked adorable. She felt a little bad for finding you so pretty like this. She knew it had been a hard day for you, that this was your brain and body’s way of regulating itself. But, god, did she love your tiny, swinging arms. The way you soaked in so much of the world that she worked so hard to keep out. It was one of her favorite things about you, that you felt everything, experienced everything, so deeply. Rosa had a hard time letting herself experience or feel anything fully. Except you.
She knocked lightly on the door to let you know she was there. You swung a little wider, twisting your neck so you could see that it was her. You waved your hand at her briefly, then continued swinging. Rosa grinned at you. She'd never admit it, but her stomach did little somersaults whenever you saw her and smiled. It was so particular to you, a smile combined with stims. You’d squeeze your eyes together and lift your shoulder to touch your ear, grinning so big your eyes would disappear.
“Hi, Rosa,” you said quietly as she approached you.
“Hi, baby.” She took your hand and squeezed. If you had looked at her, if you had made eye contact, you would have seen something not many people saw in Rosa’s eyes–softness, care, deep-seated concern. You would have seen a face that was open, that read loud and clear, I would do anything for you. “You feeling any better?”
You shook your head.
“Want me to hold you?”
You nodded, and Rosa gently pulled on your arm, leading you to the bed. She got herself situated, then pulled you onto her lap. You buried your face beneath her neck, pressing into her, seeking out deep pressure, the steady sound of her heartbeat, the smell of her perfume on her neck–citrusy and spicy. She held you hard, her strong arms wrapped around you, her body tensed to give you the most pressure she could.
The first time you’d let her see you overstimulated, she’d tried to play with your hair and hold you gently, and you’d said, “That’s too light. Press hard.” So she’d pulled you into a loose hug. “Harder, Rosa.” So she’d squeezed you, resting her face next to yours. “More, Rosa,” you’d insisted. “I’m not gonna break.” She’d been afraid she was hurting you, but there was no denying the results. When she held you like that–so tightly she worried you’d burst–your breathing slowed, your muscles relaxed, you melted into her like all the stress of the world couldn’t touch you. And she genuinely hoped that when you were in her arms, it couldn’t.
You let out a relieved sigh as Rosa rested her chin on your hooded head, snaking her hand inside to gently scratch her fingers along your scalp and through your hair as she rocked you back and forth.
“I shouldn’t have gone,” you whispered into her chest.
“To the work thing?”
You nodded.
“I did so good until the end.” Your voice cracked, and Rosa pressed her lips to your head. “I hate being like this.”
“Hey, now,” Rosa said, her voice vibrating against you. “Don’t talk about my girlfriend like that.”
“But it’s true,” you insisted. “It makes everything harder. It makes it harder for you, too.”
Rosa sighed. She wanted to look into your eyes, but she knew that’d be hard for you right now, so she settled for pressing her cheek to yours instead.
“Y/N,” she said, her breath warm in your ear. “There is nothing hard about being with you.”
“I don’t believe you."
“I know that being autistic is hard for you sometimes,” Rosa continued. “But it’s really beautiful, too. I love your stims. I think they’re adorable. I think you’re funny without trying to be. You make me laugh. And smile. And ask anyone I know, I never smile. That’s just for you. You just… you see things and experience things in a way that’s just yours. And that’s badass.”
You giggled and sniffed. “You think autism’s badass?”
“I do,” she confirmed, grinning as you emerged from your hoodie, finally meeting her eyes. “I think it’s hot, too.”
You laughed and traced Rosa’s eyebrows with your finger, making your way down the bridge of her nose, then across the place where her face dimpled when she smiled, all the way to the bottom of her lips. She bent toward you and kissed your pointer finger, then took your hands and kissed your nose, smiling as you scrunched and stimmed.
“Grey’s Anatomy?” she asked. “I can make us mac ‘n cheese later, too.”
Your face lit up, and you leaped out of bed, your hoodie swallowing you. “Spongebob shapes?” She nodded. You grabbed Rosa’s hand and pulled her to her feet, kissing her quickly on the mouth.
“Wait, wait, not so fast,” she protested, as you bounced on the balls of your feet, trying to zoom off to the living room. She held the bottom of your face in both her hands and pulled your head toward her, kissing you deeply. She smiled into the kiss as you shook your hands next to your face.
“I love you,” you chirped, as you pulled away, thinking nothing of it and bounding into the living room. But Rosa’s breath caught in her throat. You all hadn’t said I love you yet. You hadn’t had the moment. But maybe there didn’t need to be a moment. Rosa’s heart surged as she watched you get the TV set up, covering yourself in a blanket so that only your head popped up.
“Come on, Rosa!” you called. “I want to snuggle!”
Rosa joined you on the couch, laying down so that her head was on your chest, her body pressing into yours, knowing that you’d find the pressure comforting. She’d never admit it–not to anyone but you–but she found it comforting, too, like this. She liked to be held. She would murder anyone who ever found out, but she loved your hands through her hair, loved being able to hear your heartbeat, loved the way your arms around her seemed to grow heavier when you fell asleep.
“I love you, too,” she mumbled into you, surprised by how easy it was to say.
“What?” you said, tilting your head toward her, your eyes still trained on the TV.
She smiled. “I said I love you, you nerd.”
“Oh. Yeah,” you confirmed, as if it was the easiest, most natural thing in the world to love Rosa. And, for you, it was. “Yeah, me too.”

Like any honest, well-adjusted human being, I've often had reason in my life to daydream about owning my own 1,600-ton sheet metal press. I don't want to have to go to the junkyard for a fourth time this weekend just because I forgot the passenger door is also rusted out.
Why should the automakers have all the fun? Sure, they have millions upon millions of dollars, whereas I have about fifteen bucks in my wallet. They have enormous facilities capable of serving the mechanical and electrical demands of such an intense machine, and I have a motorcycle gas tank on my kitchen table because there's simply nowhere else to put it. Automakers can source kilometers-long rolls of precision-engineered high-strength steel, and I think I might be able to weld some stolen road signs together with enough advance notice. This, it turns out, is all details compared to the big problem with setting up my own autobody foundry in my backyard: the noise.
Yes, friends. Like in many well-meaning jurisdictions all across this once-great land, the bigwigs at City so-called Hall have decided to stick their noses where they don't belong. Regulating that residential neighbourhoods are not allowed to operate massive industrial machinery in the backyards is against what the founding motherfathers intended when they stole this country from the people who were already living there. Back then, people made wagon wheels in their backyard. They didn't have the luxury of going on RockAuto and ordering them from a distant trading partner, somewhere that they still built things.
What am I saying? We need to shake up government in this country. I envision a world in which the government pays you to punch out new tailgates for a 1993 F-150, immaculate bumperettes for a Valiant, and rust-free patch panels for Escorts. They will tell you it can't be done, which is even more proof that we need to go do it ourselves. If you manage to find someone willing to back this political project, send them by my house. I'll be there all weekend trying to figure out where the Princess Auto warranty on $10 hydraulic bearing presses and $3 ball-peen hammers becomes invalid.

Omg, I’m so excited! I’m legit about to explode with excitement!
How do you feel on Sebastian, Sam, and Abigail from stardew (separate) x Omega! reader. Basically the reader is just bugging out from heat and their partner is there to cuddle and comfort them. Just a whole gallon of warm fluff
Remember to pace yourself, You’re awesome and you can do this!
YES YES YES! Finally, some good fucking food I'm feral for this. Pure fluff shit my beloved.
-
-
-
Sebastian
- he has a lot of good nesting items for you, all of which are drowned in his scent, which is perfect for you to build up the edges around the bed and cocoon yourself in.
- He knows heats are very taxing on omegas, which is why he keeps a mini fridge in your shared bedroom stock full of different types of drinks, some cold snacks, and keeps a few nutrition bars on top of it.
- But of course that's never enough. Your body is sensitive to the point of pain, yet all you want is him nearby. His heart aches when you look at him with such teary eyes.
- Gives you his hoodie and watches you snuggle deeply into it, chuckling at how cute you are. It at least keeps you settle while he drives to ZuZu city to get your favorite take out, his sweetheart needs to eat.
You miss your mate, he's been gone for so long you fear you might be dying. Whining, you nuzzle into his hoodie trying to find a comfortable position to ease your pain.
Maybe fifteen minutes later you hear the engine of a motorcycle coming to a stop, then the sound of the front door opening and closed, and footsteps coming up the stairs, to finally the bedroom door slowly creeping open.
"Babe, you awake?"
Sebastian spoke softly, not wanting to actually wake you, he knows how hard it can be to sleep during your heat. A smile spread across his face when you barely poke your head out from your nest, eyes squinted harshly from the light coming from the hallway.
"Oh good. I got your favorite." He closes the door and sets the drinks and food on his desk, rooting through the fast food bag to hand you your meal.
It's adorable how you slowly begin to sit up, clearly starving. Once you had your food, you begin to devour, humming happily.
"This is so good! I have the best mate."
Sebastian feels his cheeks grow pink, he will never get use to you calling him that, he knows you two have been mated for a little over a year now but his heart still flutters at it.
Abigail
- Abigail is a bit of a wild card when it comes to dealing with you and your heats, but for the most part she will stay by your side. She closes all the curtains, making the room nice and dark for you, with the only light source being the tv playing an old cartoon for background noise.
- She's all curled around you, letting you snuggle into her chest and just holds you tightly.
- You are your most sensitive right now, she understands how your emotions are all over the place and you need to feel safe now more than ever. Which is why she locks the bedroom door and windows after blocking out the light, ensuring that anyone would have to get passed those and then her to get to you.
- Abigail mostly lazes next to you, shushing you and whispering how muc she loves you into your ear.
- She only ever gets up to use the bathroom or to bring you snacks and drinks.
"Shhh, shh, it's alright pumpkin, I got you."
Abigail coos softly at you, nuzzling her face on the top of your head. You're shaking, your body feels too overwhelmed, like everything is just too much, the only thing calming you down is your mate.
"That's it, sweetheart, focus on me. That's my sweet thing. I love you." She places a gentle kiss to your forehead, careful to avoid putting too much pressure.
You whimper, burying your face into her chest as you try to regulate yourself. Your heat is just taking everything out of you, even after being sated you can't stop the draining feeling, or how your body feels so hot and so cold at once.
But Abigail is there for you, and she's not going anywhere anytime soon.
She will lay there with you, no matter how many times you toss the comforter off you then beg for it back, she will mark sure you get whatever you need to feel comfortable again, until you can fall asleep.
-
-
Sam
- P A N I C.
- He is freaking out and barely has any idea what to do! He wants to help you but all he knows are the basics, no one told him this was apart of heats! He feels patheic and useless watching you writher in pain, curling into yourself as the pain grows.
- Alpha Sam to the rescue!
- Sam did several searches and asked Harvey (who nearly fainted but answered honestly) and is barging into your shared bedroom with his arms full of things. He's rambling about everything he got you, all the new nesting items he got for you (and heavily scented) the weighted blanket, the weighted plushie that he excitedly holds up.
- He doesn't stop until you groan, you love his voice but it's too m uch all at once. It shuts him up quickly, and he's fast to work, softly asking if he's allowed in your nest (as if he wasn't a few hours ago.)
- He slides in, placing items around you, before laying you on top of him, and placing the weighted blanket on top of you for extra comfort while you curl up on his chest.
"I'm sorry, firefly, I know....I know but I got you."
You don't know if he's trying to comfort you or himself, but you love it all the same. His voice now nice and low, instead of loud and frantic as it was earlier. Sam wraps his arms around you, gently rubbing your shoulders, while the weighted blanket is settled across your lower back.
Your nest is filled with a mix of his and your scent, though yours is fighting to show through after Sam scented so many items for you, knowing his scent brings a source of comfort to you.
You don't mind, you enjoy the warm feeling of being surrounded adn protected by your lover.
"You're so cute like this." His voice almost a whine, just loving how cozy and comfy you look on him!
His mate is so precious he wants to cry!
"Sammy please...." you mutter, nuzzling further into his chest.
The blonde chuckles bashfully "Sorry, sorry I didn't mean to was ya from dozing."
Can you blame him? So cute.

@eightyonekilograms asked:
What are the actual bits of legislation and policy which discourage people from having more children? I mean, people can and do argue furiously over this question, but
I don't know, but I think it would be funny to present some spurious correlations and non-correlations from Gapminder, to hint how high the bar for "evidence" is (or arguably should be) in these furious arguments. I have no specific conclusion here, only a sort of confused interest in the subject and a feeling that it should get more attention. I have my quibbles with Gapminder, but it provides a lot of easily visualized data.
Maybe the problem is low infant mortality. If you killed more infants, people would have more children to replace the dead ones. /s Note log scale:
I am confident in saying this is obviously not a real cause despite the high correlation; if you want to show a real cause then you should be able to present a correlation at least this strong to stand out from the noise!
(Color coding is blue=africa, red=asia, yellow=europe, green=americas)
Same data without the scaled-to-population data discs, and with one weird country highlighted:
Israel is clearly doing something right to have low infant mortality and lots of babies, and Israel is also such an absurd outlier on many other counts that trying to get policy from Israel is probably ineffective.
Maybe personal computers are to blame:
This is a linear scale but looks like a log chart anyway, and it's suggestive of needing less than 1 PC per 5 people to reproduce at replacement. Log off, go outside, touch ass. (Gapminder auto-adjusts years sometimes when it doesn't have later data, hence the 2006.)
81 suggested it's NIMBY housing policy and I didn't find a good measure of that, but here's something at least vaguely related to construction regulation, for what that's worth: Procedures to build a warehouse.
Mmmm not seeing a correlation there.
To some degree, a lot of the stats from Gapminder are proxies for prosperity, and there's something about prosperity that's negatively correlated with reproduction.
If you measure something like "energy use per person" or "life expectancy" or HDI, it's going to closely track GDP per capita. So let's look at some stats I think are less associated with GDP per capita.
Unemployment rate? This ain't it chief.
Motorcycle death rate? Nah.
(The far-right dot is Thailand. TIL!)
Here's another which is correlated with the overall GDP per capita. Rich states can afford more of it, and they do. It's similar to some programs suggested to increase birthrate:
Gapminder doesn't have specific data on parental leave or child subsidies, but the fact that welfare is so tightly correlated with lower birthrate suggests that you can't subsidise your way out of this.
(The outlier dot here is, again, Israel.)
In closing, consider more teen pregnancy:

"The sound of a car horn, a Harley or pickup with a deliberately loud muffler, or even simply an average sedan doing a legal 40 miles per hour on a nearby road can all activate the "fight or flight" response of our nervous systems, pumping our bodies full of stress hormones that increase our blood pressure, accelerate our heart rates, and weaken our vascular and digestive systems over time. You may not physically even notice it...but it's happening. Worst of all, continuous noises like these can trigger these hormones even when we sleep, preventing our brains from entering the most restful stages of rest that we need to optimally learn, heal, and regulate our moods — even if the noises aren't loud enough to actually wake us up. The World Health Organization recommends noise levels of no more than 40 decibels outside of our bedrooms, roughly equivalent to the ambient sounds of a hushed library."
"[...] Car sounds [...] are subject to comparatively little research, and even less regulation. [...] That dearth of research might help explain why restrictions on U.S. roadway sound levels are so lax."
I wrote more but tumblr didnt save the draft, but other sources of noise pollution from vehicles/motorized or combustion engine tools like cars include:
Landscaping equipment like lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and weedwackers
Pressure washers (unique to where i am bc someone runs a mobile car detailing business in the parking lot lol)
Electric generators
Motorcycles
Freight trains (some ppl, including many low income ppl, live directly across from a freight train, which runs frequently. I used to live close enough to its tracks that it could still be heard clearly even though we werent it wasnt in sight and over a mile away).
Jets, helicopters, and other large aircraft (i live in a military town)
Race cars and cars with large tires (many men here own very loud and extremely annoying cars and trucks that were detailed to be intimidating and noise-amplifying lol).

#Xiantober Day 7 ❅ Biker!Xian
A rumble drew everyone's attention to the parking lot as they climbed the steps of the school. It echoed off the grandiose, neo-classical architecture of Cloud Recesses Prep. Lan Zhan locked his sky blue bmw and waited.
A few other kids gave him a look as they passed by. He ignored them in favor of the sleek black bike and it's leather clad rider. Wei Ying pulled smoothly into the spot next to Lan Zhan's car.
All the other spots this close to the school were taken. All other spots in this parking lot were taken. Kids ran from the overflow lot to get inside before the bell. Lan Zhan got here early and had stood in the spot next to his car until Wei Ying arrived.
Nobody made a big deal out of it, only giving him a side-eye and never complaining. Perks of being the dean's nephew. Wei Ying knocked out his kickstand and eased the bike to the side. He pulled off the mirror-shiny black helmet to reveal a bright grin.
"Good Morning, Lan Zhan!" He climbed off the bike and Lan Zhan tracked the movement of his long legs. Wei Ying pulled his hair out of its bun. It tumbled down his back as he bounded over.
The bike caused an uproar a month ago when Wei Ying showed up on it instead of tumbling out of the Jiang sibling's car like normal. It culminated in a heated debate between Lan Qiren and Wei Ying about whether the school regulations prohibited motorcycles.
The school board voted in Wei Ying's favor when he explained that the bike was his only vehicle because payments, insurance, and gas was cheaper. They knew him well because of the accolades his genius brought to the school.
They paid careful attention to keep his scholarship in place so he could keep making CRP look good. A little noise complaint would not turn them against him. Since then, Lan Zhan reserved a spot for Wei Ying to make sure he got to class on time.
And to see his smile first thing in the morning. Wei Ying beamed at him, then shoved his hands under Lan Zhan's jacket.
"Aiya, it's cold!" He pressed closer, "I need better gloves to ride when it's this cold."
Leaves swirled red and gold around them as they climbed up the steps. Lan Zhan let Wei Ying leech his warmth without complaint.
"How long will you continue to ride?" He asked.
"All year!" Wei Ying withdrew his hands to speak animatedly, "I'm no fair weather rider."
"I didn't get that bike only to ride it part of the year. It's my only vehicle you know!" He blew on his red knuckles. Lan Zhan watched his cheeks puff out.
The first bell rang. Wei Ying's eyes widened and he pushed Lan Zhan gently away. "Don't be late because of me!"
He hurried down the hall, calling over his shoulder, "I'll see you at lunch, Lan Zhan!"
Lan Zhan made is way to homeroom and pulled out his planner. In today's box, he penned a little note to himself.
The next morning Wei Ying stepped off his bike and hurried over with the same sunny smile.
"Wei Ying." Lan Zhan held out a box, "Good Morning"
"What's this?" Wei Ying popped off the lid and stared at the contents. It was a pair of heated, winter riding gloves.
Wei Ying's exclamation of delight was so loud that it rivaled the rumble of his bike.

Why the Kawasaki Ninja H2R CC is Not Street Legal
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R CC is undoubtedly one of the most powerful and advanced motorcycles ever created, with a 998cc supercharged engine that produces an astonishing 310 horsepower. While its incredible speed and cutting-edge technology make it a dream for motorcycle enthusiasts, there’s one major caveat: it is not street legal. The Kawasaki Ninja H2R is designed exclusively for track use, and there are several key reasons why this beast is not allowed on public roads.
One of the primary reasons the Kawasaki Ninja H2R CC is not street legal is its extreme power output. With a top speed exceeding 240 mph, the Ninja H2R far surpasses the speed limits of any public road, creating significant safety concerns for both the rider and other motorists. The sheer acceleration and speed capabilities could be too overwhelming for city streets or highways, increasing the risk of accidents.
Another critical factor is that the Kawasaki Ninja H2R lacks essential features required for road use. The bike is not equipped with headlights, mirrors, turn signals, or a license plate holder, all of which are mandatory for street-legal motorcycles. Additionally, the exhaust system of the Kawasaki Ninja H2R CC does not meet emissions standards set by regulatory authorities in many countries, including the U.S. and Europe. Without these components, it fails to comply with basic legal requirements for motorcycles on public roads.
Noise restrictions are another concern. The Kawasaki Ninja H2R produces a high-pitched, extremely loud exhaust sound, especially when the supercharger kicks in. This noise level exceeds legal limits for street motorcycles in most areas. The bike’s design prioritizes performance on the racetrack, where noise and emissions restrictions are more relaxed compared to public roads.
Moreover, the Kawasaki Ninja H2R prices reflect its status as a highly specialized machine. With prices starting around 81lacs, the cost of this track-only superbike further indicates its exclusive purpose. Riders purchasing this motorcycle understand they are investing in a high-performance machine designed for closed-course racing rather than everyday riding.
The Kawasaki Ninja H2R CC is an engineering marvel, but it's overwhelming power, lack of street-legal components, and non-compliance with emissions and noise regulations prevent it from being roadworthy. Its true potential can only be unleashed on the racetrack, where it belongs.

Internal Combustion Engines: A Comprehensive Guide
Internal combustion engines (ICEs) have been the driving force behind technological advancements for over a century. The Indian Internal Combustion Engines Market is projected to reach USD 8.3 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period (2020–2026). This growth is primarily driven by the increasing demand for vehicles, construction equipment, and power generation solutions in the country that uses ICEs.
Basic Components of an Internal Combustion Engine
An ICE consists of several interconnected components that work together to produce power:
Combustion Chamber: The space where the fuel-air mixture is ignited and combustion occurs.
Piston: A movable component that reciprocates within the cylinder, converting the combustion energy into mechanical energy.
Connecting Rod: A component that connects the piston to the crankshaft, transmitting the mechanical energy.
Crankshaft: A rotating shaft that converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotary motion.
Valves: Devices that control the flow of fuel-air mixture into and out of the combustion chamber.
