Motorcycle exhaust modifications – Yamaha Stryker
I have failed technical inspection with my Yamaha’s exhaust being too loud so I’ve done several mods to the existing COBRA slip-on to make it more silent. I’ve got it used with the bike and I believe it was already tampered with (no foam or mesh inside) although I’m not sure it should come stuffed,…
Moto trip to Austria – Going Home
As soon as I thought all challenges in this trip are over – mother nature found a way to surprise us… Passing through the mountains to our car location in Czechia a big storm came up. And to make the matters worse – we were on the top of the mountain when it hit the…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 5 (THE DAY)
AT LAST – The Glockner! The day started with “let me check the oil level and forget to screw the lid on”, lucky we didn’t lose it 🙂 And away we go, stopped midway to the site seeing point (Edelweißspitze, gift shop of some sort) – super scary with high elevation and stone road for…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 4
At one point I thought it will be the end of my journey, without reaching our trip goal… A jag swooped in front of me and smashed on the brakes o_O Luckily to me it was a fairly new jag and dry tarmac so I’ve managed to brake without sliding and also jag auto-jumped a…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 3
Day 3 – rainy, cloudy and cold day, hence the easy ride. We’ve split into two groups, one went through the mountain road and the rest of us – around. Though it will be too cloudy to see anything up top and too cold/rainy to make the ride pleasant 🙂 So for me it was…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 2
Going over the mountains – at first I thought we were going the wrong way as it was just a narrow paved road straight up and down 😀 eventually bumped into the dead end at someone’s house on the top of the hill 🙂 few wrong turns later – we’re back on track to Hallstatt.…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 1
Next morning – hop on motorcycles and head to Austria 🙂 Heading from Czechia: couldn’t get any decent food or even tea as they don’t take euros or cards in cafeterias – only local tugriks (what’s the currency there?…right – Czech koruna) …whatever, just passing through 🙂 had to resort to the gas station food…
Moto trip to Austria – Day 0
This year we’ve decided to see… Slovakia, no… Alps in Austria, actually it was a second compromise 😀 Initially Andorra was the point, then maybe Spain, but all these more remote (from Lithuania) countries had one thing in common – bikes should be shipped there. And with shipping prices these days it would have been…
Paradox alarm system and Home Assistant with esp8266/ESP32 (without IP150)
If you want to integrate Paradox (most panels) alarm system to Home Assistant – you will need to pull/read data from the panel and feed it to MQTT (preferred) server. There are several options: IP150 module, serial (UART) or Serial-to-WIFI device, which I’m using now. The latter is cheap, small, easy to set up and…
