I really like the scores to movies like that. I wonder if its possible to get the scores from new movies before they'r even out yet. Most of the summer blockbusters this year have awesome music in them and I'm not used to finding soundtrack cd's with just the orchestral/instrumental scores.

where's your shop? ... the tire thing was already sorted out. The tire with the screw was not actually punctured all the way through, but I am curious if the tire is still ok. Wouldn't mind having a profesional opinion. also... what's a dyno? sorry but I am still a noob to alot of this.

got a tire from sport tour.. I forgot bout them, thats where I got my helmet and jacket [the jacket of which I may be post for sale soon]... gixxie750 put the tire on for me. but get this, that screw didn't even go all the way through the tread of the tire. Not even a bump was visible on the inside of the wall. So I probably spent $90 today that I really didn't need to spend, and now I have a spare tire. But what really blows, there was a ride today I wanted to attend. I thought it was next week. Nope.. was today. I coulda been riding instead buying a bike tire. hahah oh well.

uhm... hey, that actually could work out for me. I'm waiting for a call back from sport tour. They could sell me a tire for a good price but they couldn't install it till Monday plus it would be an extra $45 minimum. And if I do want them to install it, I can't trailer my bike. I'd have to ride it over there and hope I don't have an accident on the way. If your serious, uh... the old tire still has to come off mind you. My bike has a center stand. I have no tools for the job myself. And if you are able to do it, what about balancing? I'm gonna send you a PM.

oh that's cool, what part of DP you in?

I'm in Deer Park.. near kenwood. I don't make it over to the west side very often.

sport tour.. if only they weren't so far from me. But if they have a tire for me at a good price I might be willing to make the treck out there. I could buy one online but I'd still have to pay for shipping and wait around for it to get here. Catman, I don't have the tire yet, nor do I have the other one off the bike. I haven't done either due to lack of time/energy. And I haven't bought the tire yet cause it turns out I need to wait for payday. I hope to have this whole thing accomplished by Sunday. I want to ride some this weekend.

does anyone here in cincy have equipment for putting a tubless tire back on a rim? I may need some help with that later on [today possibly or maybe just later in the week] if anyone wouldn't mind. ...goin to church right now but be back home later this afternoon to see if anyone has any yes responses for me.

so how hard/often does he ride? ...see on the one hand I want the new tire because of the whole.. thought lingering in the back of my mind deal. But on the other hand... I just blew alot on some recent car work and I still need to get parts for the oil leaks on my bike. this is crappy timing because there are two rides this month I wanted to attend I think I already missed one of them. since I don't ride very hard or very often, if the patch/plug idea would fix the problem I'd probably be willing to go that route. Course I'l still have to pay for mounting and ballancing. >.>

do you have any idea how much they will do that? of course the fastest I usually go is 70/75. I actually try not to go on the expressway too much because most of the times I do I will stall out.

friend of mine says he can patch my rear tire. are patching and plugging very different? Tire is in good shape minace the screw, i'd love to save it if I can. ... I also don't ride as hard as some of the ppl here. Only once or twice a month and I don't hug the curves major hard. I wont put a peg or a knee down.

ah, you think it wont do much harm to be riding with the leaks? the one on the left side, I noticed last time I was riding was bad enough I could really see it leaking out. Not gushing but I mean there was a very clear line of oil and drips on my left foot. I do need to change the oil anyway. I'm probably not as tight on money as I am making it sound right now but I am penny pinching when it comes to fixing the bike. The cheapest I can go, the better. course, who doesn't want to save money when it comes to stuff like this?

thanks for these replies. I don't have time at this moment to look into each but I will later. gonna go fish'n. I just hope I can get the tire fixed before next weekend. *crosses fingers*

I was a walk in also last year. I got very very lucky. It was the first week of July, there were alot of no shows the day I walked in. I was late too. Me and 14 other walk ins all got a spot in the class. two of them had to go to diamond oaks the last two days but it all worked out.

Hey I have some oil leaks I want to get fixed... I am tight on money and figure someone around here may have some good advice as to where I can get the parts I need....Be it a shop or a website. I have some pictures in my albums of some of these leaks. I've heard there are seal kits you can get and I wonder if I should get something like that and if so what kind.... I am not knowledgeable when it comes to the mechanical stuff. If anyone wants to inspect my bike in person and tell me what they think I need to get, that would be appreciated too. I can also take more pictures. I have a manual, similar to a haynes manual if you've ever seen one of those. I haven't had much time to search for parts in it yet though, it's kind of greek to me. Any help would be appreciated. I do have a friend from work who said he'd fix the leaks for me for cheap if I just get the parts I need. But I don't know what parts I need. thanks guys!

...I'm so bummed about this. The back tire was in such good condition I wasn't gonna need a new one for a good while, maybe never since I wasn't planning on keeping the bike for tooo long. but I need a new rear tire. so not happy bout this..... as for tire size/type... this is the info from the tire that I have, not sure if this is what I need? B45R tubless, ATTLAX BT45r 130/70-17 M/C 62H Someone from work mentioned you can get some bike tires from firestone or tire discounters... I'l check there unless someone on here has a spair they'l sell me cheap, or knows of a better place?

haven't been on here in ages but this thread was right at the top so I stopped in. Congrats on your first ride hon. I took the written exam last year for my temps so I could go through the ohio baisic rider course and got my license that week. got my first bike a month later. been great ever since. and I never rode before the baisic rider course either. I just wish I had money now for the kind of gear I really want. I'm not happy with my current helmet or jacket.

I saw this the other day thought someone on here might be interested.

Deer Park, myself... >.>
