Flat Tire

[silveradocowboy]

My source told me this about metal stems....

He has put some in MC wheels and they worked well but the size he has did not fit all the MC wheels he tried it on and does not know what size the hole in the wheel or stem was.

A burnout before changing tires . . . why didn't I think of that!?!  I changed my tires last summer, and I still have the old ones sitting in the basement.  And to think that I could have had tons of fun before taking them off.  Instead they just take up room in my small workshop.

Are used tires good for anything?  I've been meaning to throw them away (at a recycling facility) but just hadn't done it.  A burnout might have made taking off the tire a little easier too.  Man it was a pain to change.  dc

I am changing out the tire tomorrow so at work tonight after lunch I did one.  It was my first time on a street bike to do this. My wild stuff was always restricted to dirt. On my two stoke 250 duel purpose bike I could throw a rooster tail a good 20 - 30 feet.

On the Magna it was a little unnerving when it started to vibrate and slightly slide to the right.  At work the parking lot has a rain run off slope.  I though I was a little weak but the guys I work with though it was cool.


It was a fun.
