![]() Even seemingly small occurrences can lead to significant damage to your home. Boxelder Bug Damageīoxelder bugs are among the least harmful insects to have in your home, though they can still cause unfortunate incidents to happen. Once one finds a way in, they invite their buddies to settle in and disperse throughout your home. Unlike large rodents, bugs do not need a large opening to make their way into your personal dwelling. A small crack in any part of the exterior of your home is like a giant welcome sign for these insects. Or, maybe there is a pin sized hole in your foundation. You may never have noticed that small hole in your living room window caulking. They are smart insects, and know how to look for any openings and infiltrate in the least obvious of places. You may wonder how they even get inside your home. Plus, you will now have to face an infestation in your home. The truth is, they are virtually harmless, but they do cause some damage. Your home, cabin or office is the perfect resting place for the boxelder bug to wait out the cold winter months. ![]() Boxelder Bugs Entering Your HomeĪs the days get shorter and the nights become cooler, boxelder bugs begin looking for a warm home. Yet, beware, because they will aim to hibernate in your home or office space next. This is the last stage of trying to stay warm before they begin to hibernate for the winter. You will also find them basking in the sun nearby trees or buildings. You will find them on rocks, huddled together on the side to get the most sunlight. Knowing the enjoyment they get from sunbathing, they tend to find warm spots to meet throughout the cooler autumn months. Nonetheless, our chief concern lies in where the boxelder bugs congregate in the fall and winter. Therefore, in the summer, you will see it out and about, enjoying the sap of its home trees. The key here is that the boxelder bug loves warmth. The boxelder bug likes to feed on the sap of maple and ash trees, and in particular, the boxelder tree. ![]() It is mostly found where boxelder trees are widespread, such as in California and Nevada however, they have been found in Minnesota, New England, and even several Canadian provinces as well. The boxelder bug is found throughout the entire United States and the eastern part of Canada. When found within a boxelder tree, the boxelder bugs look like a swarm of reddish or orange insects looking to attack. Its shape is oblong and the head is quite flat, making it almost look like the common stink bug, with the exception of its unique markings. It is about half an inch long and has six legs. The boxelder bug is not huge, but it is not tiny, either. These markings definitely make the boxelder bug appear much more menacing than it actually is. The stripes almost look like outlines of wings, with a Transformer mask type design in the center. The boxelder bug is black with reddish or orange lines down its back (or dorsum), making for a very cool, unique design. However, I would definitely say it is a distinctive looking bug with an unusual and remarkable design. I would not say that the boxelder bug is particularly beautiful. This bug gets its name from the Boxelder tree, where the bugs are found feeding and laying eggs on. One of the most interesting looking bugs we’ve have seen during fall-time is the Boxelder bug. The fall is a great time of year to see some interesting, and relatively harmless bugs appear. We don’t necessarily love bugs, but we do find them to be quite fascinating. ![]() It’s our job to know everything there is to know about every type of bug that can enter your home or office.

In our tests, HTML minification makes little to no difference in how fast your page loads. One note – we did not include HTML minification in our chart as we don’t consider it a speed optimization. They also offer image compression with both Lossy and Lossess options. Minification removes white space and superfluous characters to make sure browsers don’t have to download as much. Plug-In Speed is one of the original speed optimization apps for Shopify, and does 2 main things. The free plan optimizes 10 images, and the plans go up as you optimize more images. They allow you to watermark your photos and add alt tags to them.

A Ducati E-Panigale or Yamaha YZF-E, can you imagine it? It is only a matter of time before the largest motorcycle manufacturers start making electric motorcycle models, either original bikes or based off of existing models. Honda is starting to tease its CR Electric Prototype and Harley-Davidson has been amping up its LiveWire model for its 2020 release. As electric-only motorcycle manufacturers continue to squeeze what they can out of these bikes, the Big Four manufacturers have also started to eye electric motorcycle technology. Electric car manufacturers, like Tesla, have seen an explosion in popularity for electric automobiles, and the motorcycle industry has seen this carry over into its segment as well.Įlectric motorcycle manufacturers have been pushing the limits on their bikes, increasing their ranges while also increasing their power output. To meet modern safety standards, which sets out a maximum height for sissy bars and saddles, both the bar and saddle are slightly lower than on the original bike.Electric motorcycles represent the motorcycle industry’s ability to listen to what consumers want and start to develop products around those wants. The most noticeable change is to the bike’s sissy bar. The gear shifter has a slightly altered internal mechanism, while still retaining the original function. ![]() The chainset now features a square taper bottom bracket instead of a cotter pin bottom bracket, and the headbadge is no longer riveted to the frame. Similarly, we’ve fitted the bike with modern brakes, but replicated the classic design (so you can’t see a difference). The rear reflector, for example, matches the size and pattern of the original, but doesn't contain any metal. The rear carrier has also been strengthened to meet these rules.Īlthough every part of the bike has been expertly matched to the original, some of these elements are slightly different to improve rider safety. There’s a couple of other components that needed to be thicker to pass today’s standards, including the welded stem and the fork tubing. The dropouts and cleats are also slightly thicker to pass modern testing standards. Although the geometry is the same, the welding technique is slightly different due to modern assembly processes, and tig welding has been used on some of the joins to make the bike stronger. Luckily, by following the original technical drawings, we were able to make sure these changes stayed true to the classic design. Which means that, for a classic like the Chopper, we’ve had to make a few small tweaks to fit modern standards. Manufacturing processes are better, and safety standards are higher. It’s been over half a century since the launch of that very first Chopper – and, naturally, things have changed a bit since then. We’re also using the same numbering logic for the serial numbers – so they’ll fit in right alongside the original models. Other replicated elements include the light bracket (which can fit one original light), the seat strap, the R nuts and the kickstand.Īs for finishing touches, the reissued Chopper comes in Infra Red and Ultra Violet – the same iconic colourways that featured in the original MK2 launch. To make sure we matched the original, we created a bespoke design for the spoke protector, and the rear hub is a modern-day equivalent of the original Sturmey-Archer. The tyres are based on the mould used in the original Chopper production, and the rims are still that classic chrome-plated steel. ![]() ![]() And that’s exactly the same design you’ll find here. Thanks to our studies of the old Chopper (along with outside counsel from some expert fans), these updated handlebars are a close match to the original, with handlebar grips and brake levers that are close to replicas.Īnother iconic feature of the Chopper is its wheels – particularly that mullet setup. Those iconic U-shaped handlebars – one of the defining features of the Chopper – haven’t gone anywhere either. The same goes for the pedals, mudguards and chainguard, all of which were designed using the original technical drawings to create exact replicas of the original parts. First off, let’s take a look at all the elements that replicate the original MK2 Chopper design.įor the bike’s frame, we used original measurements to make sure the geometry of the tubing is as close as possible to the OG bike. ![]() Create your first GoodSync job Create and name your first GoodSync job, and select between one-way backup or two-way synchronization.ģ.
