the favourite bike bonus

[RyuNova]

So wait, it resets if you ride any bike? Including NPC's and CEO Sanchez?

I made the mistake and partcipated in a bike race on CP, my timer got reset ugh. Also i shouldn't do the Bunker Marshall sale for a while, because you end up on a Sanchez after the sale.

 

I let my laptop run overnight just idling on my Reever. I limited the FPS to 20, and activated power saving mode, to reduce the noise to almost 0 from the coolers.

 

I hope i don't have to move at all while idling on the bike, my char only uses the horn every 30 seconds.

 

I wonder if i can idle in the LSCM test track, does that still count if i idle there for my fav bike bonus?

Do i have to drive at all while farming time on the bike? Or i can just sit on it using the horn every 30 seconds?

 

I idled out in the open in an invite only session last night. It would be be better to at least kill 2 birds with one stone and farm some REP while idling. But im not sure that works.

 

Edit: I just checked my stats, i think it didn't add any time to "time spent on bikes" in my stats, just idling while standing still. Ugh i will use another macro this night, that pushes S and D so i move backwards with the bike while on the airport. UGHHHHHHHHH all this time wasted.

Edit2: Or the servers just didn't update my stats yet, and it takes like 3 days to be visible on my stats page.

Well this night i will let my char do backwards circles on the bike at the airport, theoratically it shouldn't fall off in that speed at all, i make a macro hold S and D all night long.

Let us know if it works. When I did the Oppressor Mk1 I sat on the train because I think that counts as moving. For the Oppressor MK2 I did doughnuts at the airport with a rubber band overnight. For both I was in a contact mission so I didn't pay the daily fees.

It worked Reever is my fav bike now. It only took like maybe 45 hours or a bit less.

 

First night i only idled standing still, making my char press the "horn" button all night.

Second night i jumped on the train with the bike, first half i stood still like the night before, second half i made it go backwards all the time.

Third night i used a macro, that made my char drive circles forwards on the airport, just pressing D and W. Wow it was tricky creating a macro where my char didn't drive too fast. I just let it drive like 11 or 12 mph in circles all night.

 

So i don't know what worked, maybe all 3 things and only the time on the bike mattered.

 

Im just happy i never have to worry about that stupid bonus anymore. Yay finally getting max hp regen, 30% dmg bonus, etc.

 

The positive thing, my nightclub got full 2 times, gonna do a full sale today again. And the safes are all full too again. So it's like earning 2.5 million yay.
