@beeoproblem @hellomiakoda @TechConnectify I feel like the way to deal with this on something with a scooter transmission would be to immediately straighten out if you're in any sort of curve and come to a stop, but if the engine seizes, be ready for a loss of rear wheel traction followed by regaining it. This will just yeet you into the void if it happens during a curve.
The centrifugal clutch rotor is connected to the engine and the clutch will try to release immediately once that stops.
@beeoproblem @hellomiakoda @TechConnectify And by "connected" I mean, uh, indirectly, but directly enough. I still don't understand why that weird little centrifugal flyweight controlled wonder even works the way it does. I probably will in a week or so when I've had one apart in my hands to inspect it while changing the V-belt.

@AdmiralMemo Only time I've ever had it come on was about 3 seconds after the timing chain in my EJ22 Subaru decided to fail catastrophically in the middle of US 169 in Tulsa. Damn near every valve got hammered shut and I had to import a junkyard engine from Japan, twice, to fix it.
@BalooUriza I had the sadly infamous VW 5 cylinder 2.5L TDI engine to lose oil pressure during the emission testing. It was effed up in a glorious way, the camshaft lobes ate their way into the valve tappets. RIP that engine.

@apzpins Wow, I can't even fathom how that would happen.

@BalooUriza Volkswagen finds the way!
It was an interesting engine. No belts, no chains. Everything, from auxliary systems to AC directly driven. Yet they found a way to make it suck.
Their old Diesel found in T4 Transporters was a tank, I've seen 600k - 1M driven ones with original engines and after a rebuild it reliable for another 30 years.
The T5 and beyond were just technical disasters, although very nice to drive for a van.

@bclindner @TechConnectify in this video, did he mention the refrigerator cycle at least once?
I definitely should play a drinking game with friends, and drink every time he says anything about the cycle.
@yacha @bclindner @TechConnectify he didn't mention the refrigeration cycle, however dishwashers were mentioned.

@TechConnectify The part of the video that was worth it weight in bits, was showing the speed a crank rotates at idle.

@44 I have a very long career with pinball and I still found his pinball videos entertaining and I was really happy for such a high profile video maker to bring publicity to the hobby.
