THANKS FOR THE OFFER OF HELP BUD...SHAVED MY HEAD TODAY IN SEMI-USMC STYLE TODAY SO I DON'T HAVE TO TRY AND COMB MY HAIR ;O). I'M CHUNKING THE METZ ROADTEC'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
I had a friend do something similar a few years ago. Immediately thought something went wrong with the bike. After checking the bike out, found nothing wrong. After some time went by, when he thinks about it now he admits that he probably was the one at fault.

AFter some time goes by and you get a chance to replay the events you may be able to "see" more of what happened.

 
Brian - I just bought a tire changer so if you want to save $100 plus, you can be the first one to use it! I found that Morton's went from $40 to $62 PER TIRE if you don't buy the tires from them and FBurg Motorsports is the same. I finally said BS to spending $120 to mount two tires especially when I bring them the wheels!

And I have a question, I have a meeting at the Pentagon tomorrow and am going to ride the bike. I've got a DoD sticker on it, can I park in the motorcycle section there at the Pentagon or am I risking too much??

Thanks and let me know.

Jim
