Drill and driver bits are consumable items and we know that some perform better than others. Every head in the office turned when I read out loud that new Milwaukee Shockwave Matrix Carbide bits come with a lifetime tip guarantee. It’s part of an accessories expansion that also includes the next generation of Shockwave bits.
REV IT AND HOLD ONImagine a big 250F that makes around 60 horsepower on top. That’s the new KX450. The motor is revvy, responsive and has a big top-end punch. Clearly, Kawasaki engineers wanted to close the power gap that existed between the 2018 KX and the Honda, Yamaha, KTM and Husky. It was pretty severe; on the dyno, the KX was 4 or 5 horsepower down. While we haven’t tested many other 2019 models, we can say with confidence that the new Kawasaki isn’t lacking power. It’s fast, and it revs like crazy. Every time the upper boundary for power is pushed a little higher, we wonder if we’ve reached the point of diminishing returns. Maybe we have, but the truth is that power is fun, and Kawasaki has done a good job of making it manageable. As we said, the bike revs and acts like a gigantic 250. It makes power with a smooth progression to an ultra-high redline. Down low, the bike might not even hit as hard as the 2018 KX did. If you remember, that bike was the torque champion of the 450 class between 5000 rpm and 6000 rpm. Now the hit is smoother and the power comes later. If you stay on the throttle all the way to the top, you better bring your A game. The KX is a brute on top. We tried the different EFI curves provided by the couplers. Last year we liked the standard (green) or the lean (white) ones best. Now, it’s either the standard or the black (rich). The rich one makes it just a little less nervous down low, which is beneficial on some tracks. One of the aspects of the KX that we really appreciate is the fact that it still feels light, despite all that power. We’ve long held that horsepower makes a bike feel heavy, but it’s not true in this case. The KX feels much lighter than either the scale or the dyno numbers reflect. We love the way the bike handles. That’s one thing that hasn’t changed. Over the years, the KX has consistently been a very neutral bike. It started off much like the early Honda, but as the CRF became more and more hyperactive over the years, the Kawasaki continued to have that same balanced feel—medium stable, medium agile. The new bike hasn’t changed, but the class average has. Now the bike is very stable compared to its peers. Despite all the changes, you would still recognize the KX as a KX just by the way it feels.
4. There are very few scenarios when not receiving a vaccination is warranted. Your doctor is the best source of advice to discuss when that may be applicable. When unable to safely receive vaccination, the vaccinated community’s roadblocks will be offering some of the protection you cannot attain yourself. Give thanks for altruism.
At our first meeting, NSF’s Technical Manager shared an eye-opening report with the Task Group that reviewed the lead leaching protocol process and provided test results of 507 certified faucets. For this blog, EDF compared these results to two benchmarks: the 1 ppb limit recommended by AAP; and the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) maximum allowed daily intake of lead of 3 µg/day for children from all food and beverage excluding drinking water.
WILKES-BARRE — A request for a public hearing on a proposed tax break is among the topics up for discussion at Tuesday’s county council work session. The session follows a 6 p.m. voting meeting at […]
Doesn’t this neglect sealing of the valves? This now has to done with a sliding valve across an inlet, rather than two surfaces (valve and seat) simply sitting on each other to seal. There might be other reasons why this hasn’t taken off, though.
His scholarship offer from coach James Franklin’s staff only came because the Lions lost their original quarterback commitment, Brandon Wimbush, to Notre Dame.
Well, as an example, last year there were 0 deaths from measles, but 82 deaths from the MMR vaccine. Since only 10% of vaccine injuries are reported, you do the math.
Mark Bavaro, shown here during the Liberty Bowl in 1983, was an All-America tight end for Notre Dame.
You’ll find Chris behind the scenes of almost everything Pro Tool Reviews produces. When he doesn’t have his hands on tools himself, he’s often the man behind the camera lens making the rest of the team look good. In his free time, you might find Chris with his nose jammed in a book, or tearing out his remaining hair while watching Liverpool FC. He enjoys his faith, family, friends, and the Oxford comma.
A study by Virginia Tech’s Jeff Parks on three models of new NSF/ANSI 61 certified brass faucets found similar results and concluded that even newly manufactured “lead-free” faucets may not meet the 1 ppb limit that the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends for schools.
Following some links around, I found ViVa piezo actuated values running an engine. Neat in that it is not “a coil of wire” as an actuator.http://www.vikingat.com/vivapiezoactuator.html
