    Front Tire Wear

    I can tell you this much, there is no standard on tire wear! If I could get 5500 miles out of any tire I would be quite happy. Your riding style, even the way some roads are constructed make the difference in tire wear isues. There are some on this board who claim 16K+ out of a set of tires, I...

    1997 KTM 250 EXC... good, bad or ugly?

    Well I guess I deserve all that, since it was only my fault! A 14 year old KTM has as good a chance of being a reliable bike as any other 14 year old bike, I think it would mostly depend on its past life!

    1997 KTM 250 EXC... good, bad or ugly?

    Oh good grief! Now what 14 year old bike would you not have concearns about? I have 2 KTM's that run even somtimes when they shouldn't, I have finally figured out that 99% of the problem is the nut behind the wheel! What other bike can you fill the engine with river water and still ride it?

    Anyone have Dunlop Q2s Mounted?

    ugar-6 I have run many different tires on an 06 and 08 FJR. I cannot get more than 2500 - 3000 miles out of any tire, and I know I ride aggressive. The last set of tires I spooned on were some Pirelli Rosso Corsa's and man I liked how they feel. So no more overated PR2's, 3's, Storm 2's and...

    SFO '11

    If Mark is still on the job, thats great. I like a few of the others may have gotten a bit impatient waiting to hear info on the 2011 SFO. Whatever plans Mark has there are a few of us SFO'ers ready to get that on our schedules. Its easy enough for me to undo what little I've done so far. The...

    SFO '11

    I called Best Western - Eureka Springs no dates have been preset for the SFO. If it was up to me, I would have the event at "The Hub" a neat little place just north of Jasper about 5 or 6 miles. The Hub has an opening April 21st, 22nd, and 23rd. They have a resturant as well and "The Hub" is...
