Yep. He knew exactly what his plan was and what it would cost and what the permit issues were going to be. He has people for that.

Ok, let me rephrase it. When will everyone be gone, so I can plan to be there shortly after that.

I think you misunderstood my post.

What time are you leaving, so I can plan to arrive shortly after that.

Good plan.

Not if it fixed the problem. You paid 800, yours works. Chrome has paid to have his tires balanced and it is still broke.

I'm a mod, in IT and my kid is one of the worlds most elite hackers. I know everything you do and tell him!!

Gump's cat has a bitch, and her name is Gump.

I said it would be cool, but I didn't say I would do it. For the record.

This would be cool if we could tag our gps to it. Constant updates!!

What's wrong with using a 190/60?

Edit it again, its a 190/60

If you don't want to change sizes then the Metzleler's would be the next best choice. Very good tire, they had a bad run a few years ago but it was quickly fixed.

Where did you get those two Avon Cobra sizes? Neither show available from Avon's website. http://www.avonmoto.com/products/cruiser-touring-custom/cobra

Something changed. Until 15 seconds ago if I clicked the 'My Location' drop down and hit 'update location' it give the screen shot Bad posted. But now it lets me. Something was broke and you apparently accidentally fixed it! Thanks Casper!!

I get the same as Brian when I try and update my location.

I can right click and delete you, or anyone else. That may be my mod powers. Go right click yourself and see if you can delete your self. Then check the same on mine and see if you can. Pls report back. tia I am so deleting Casper.

Those are stock on most of the newer Kaw cruisers. Universally hated by everyone. Ride like poo and wear out really fast. I threw my rear right the hell away after only 4000 miles. My only regret is not doing a massive burnout before I swapped it.

The way you describe it makes me want to change my tires more. Typical in the cruiser world, finding exact size matches other than what the OEM put on there is difficult. Especially the Kaw's. Don't worry about it, I can't remember the last time I had the same size as the factory put on.

Ok, I have confirmed with other Meanies that a 190 will fit no problem. Heck if you want you can get a 200 in there but I wouldn't, at that point I gotta think you are squeezing the tire too much with the rim and messing up the contact patch.

Coldish and wet. Road was more slippery than most, it has a reputation for that. It was 16 through W. VA/VA. Came out of a corner and rolled on and the back went out..then the front went with it a bit. Scared the shit outta Tim. Obviously I rolled on too hard, but it wasn't that wet, I wasn't leaned over that far and I didn't roll on that hard. It should not have come loose, imnsho. Tim may have a different opinion, he is welcome to share it. But, I only know one other guy that feels the way I do. I know a boatload of Kaw cruiser guys, they swear by these tires. Thus my hesitation to switch them, other than that day they have been great tires. I have burned up three rears and two fronts. I got a lot of miles on them and only this one event. Very possible I f'd up and should just take my licks and move on.

My previously mentioned 8 inch sideways slide was on those.

Avon Cobra's. The choice of maniac cruiser riders everywhere. I ran the hell out of them on my previous two bikes. They wear very well, ride great and grip like a son of a bitch even in the rain. After my 8 inch sideways slide on the way to the dragon last fall I will probably put them on this bike. They were originally made for Wings, so they handle the weight and the speed in corners very well. Warning, keep the front inflated well. The front will cup in a heartbeat if you don't. http://www.avonmoto.com/products/cruiser-touring-custom/cobra They have a 130/80 for the front. And a 190/60 for the rear. If it will fit that rear will fix a couple of miles an hour on your speedo which I will bet is reading 3 mph fast on the freeway. It is about 3/4 of an inch wider, which will look baddass and make your dick bigger. Size calculator comparison gizmo: http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/infoTireMath.do Modz, lock this thread.
