    The Harley Went down to Salisbury, MA

    And he was looking for a soul to steal and he was in a bind because he was way behind and he was willing to make a deal, when he came across this young bike playin' on the roads and flying around the corners hot, and the Harley jumped up on the curbside and said: "Kid let me tell you...

    Spooked

    Wow. That's terrible for the family and I'm sorry you had to witness the aftermath of that as well. Keep your chin up and keep safe my friend.

    A little help, please

    Oh yea, price. They charged me $155 front, $185 back, and $50 for the labor. Best I could knock them down to.

    A little help, please

    They feel good. I'm riding a little cautious though because everyone and their brother told me to be careful with new tires (slippery). I started leaning a little more after 50 miles today and it felt fine. I can't say I notice a difference from the Dunlops yet but I'll post some impressions...

    CRACK KILLS!!!!...I took a pic to prove it

    Lazamus, if you happen to run into that guy again tell'em he needs a colonoscopy. I'm pretty sure I can see a polyp up there.

    40 mph crosswinds = no fun

    Yep, know the bridge well. Glad you're OK.

    Friends who wreck your bike.

    That sucks. I think the not lending the bike thing is very good advice. I have a hard time with it myself though since I usually let my friends borrow or try my toys. I've switched rides with 2 friends and luckily everything was OK. But you got me thinking. Sorry again for your circumstances.

    A little help, please

    Thanks very much. You make perfect sense. With a little luck I'll have the new tires on by Friday afternoon.

    A little help, please

    Well I thought I was getting down OK in the turns but you've got a great wear pattern right across the length of the tire if I'm seeing this correctly. LERecords, I agree. I think I can get more wear but I like to know I can take my bike out rain or shine, plus I may want to do a 2 or 3 day...

    Did the unthinkable...

    Good post. I've read about this a few times and been guilty of doing the same. I find now that warm water and a dab of mild soap on a microfiber cloth really do the trick on the windshield as well as my visor.

    A little help, please

    Ah, sorry. I thought you were trying to gauge how much of the tire I was using, ie looking to see if there was wear at the edges. When I first got the Fizz one of my buddies was telling me he could tell I wasn't leaning enough since the edges weren't worn.:spank:

    twi? Darn photobucket's killing me. I got one photo:

    A little help, please

    Well, I did the penny thing and am still waiting for the pics to upload to photobucket. Looks like the part I don't touch or touch very little is just about a penny's width. So that probably puts me somewhere between a surgeon and a scooter riding sissy boy, I suppose. Pictures on their way...I...

    A little help, please

    Hey, I try my best anyway. Yea, we should definirely meet for the coast ride. I'm around this weekend if you get some time. Let me take that penny picture for you too... I was thinking the same thing, 10,000 easy the way they look to me. It's just once I start asking about it most people...

    please help me understand this...

    You may be right. We're obsessed with Harley's here. They don't do a thing for me I have to say. I agree with the original poster though. All bikes should have ABS available.
