When stationary they go into a dormant sleep mode. They wake up and start transmitting after they rotate for a while.

Normally if you're fiddling with shims, there's only going to be one or two choices that will get it within spec ... unless you have (and need) some of the 0.025mm-increment shims that come in bikes as original equipment but don't seem to be in anyone's shim kits!
I removed one bolt and removed the slip-on muffler from the beast ... necessary for clearance to remove the rear wheel. If I do one tiny thing each day, maybe I can stretch out this tires-and-brakes job and have something to do until spring! (more likely I'll get ambitious at some point and just get it done, and then have nothing to do for three months)
I'm confused. I am assuming powered speakers fed by mixer? HT amp is just being used as a switcher for tape and cd? Why not tape and cd straight into mixer?I've been remiss. I added a 1960 watt loudspeaker system along with all my old stereo gear to my workshop. Now I have enough sound pressure in there to make myself completely deaf (not kidding, rated at 127db at one meter at full power). I filmed a brief video of it from the day I got it together, along with costs.
It's been successful. Every time I turn it loud on the weekend, I get the locals popping over with beers. This winter I'll be firing up the wood stove and foosball on weekends.
Right in all cases except that I decided not to do them straight in for a few reasons - A) I really have no desire to mix them and yes I know that I could turn the volume of the ones I'm not using to 0, B) I had all the equipment in question, and C) the amp is not pushing any power to the mixer (though the volume control works, oddly) but it has atmospheric effects if I wanted it, and finally D) the amp cost me $60 years ago which is probably less than conversion cables from the components.I'm confused.

Michelin X-Ice series are nice...but once I switched over to Nokian, I dont think I can go back to Michelin.If it turns out that the Michelins are bad in the winter, we can always pick up a set of winters and run the all-weathers the rest of the year. They perform just as well as a typical all-season in the summer, get excellent mileage, and will last just as long.
Every time I am due for a set I try to find hakkas but normally end up with xice. Xice are decent and I haven't been able to justify the price difference.Michelin X-Ice series are nice...but once I switched over to Nokian, I dont think I can go back to Michelin.
These Nokian Hakkapelitta's were nice and squishy with grip on the cold roads for my rwd vehicle. Love them!
Mind you, they tend to be a bit more expensive that the X-ice series.

My last set I found used. Not a lot of used hakkas and when people are selling them, they believe they have gold bars. I think I paid 200 for xice on alloys with enough tread to last three seasons comfortably and then burn them off in the summer.I usually only deal with Billy or Benny from Tires23 so maybe they give me a bit of a discount lol.
However you are right - it is still a couple of hundred dollars more for a set of 4 vs the x-ice.
Had those on both my Genesis Coupe and WRX.Michelin X-Ice series are nice...but once I switched over to Nokian, I dont think I can go back to Michelin.

That was not the common practice 50+ years ago. Snows only on the rears because all cars/trucks were rear wheel drive. It's only in the last couple of decades that the snow tires on all four corners has become the norm.You need them at all four corners.
