  1. thats what i did with my last 2 sets, the last ones i accually made a smiley face in the road in front of the house, you can still kinda see it:D..but i still need to ride to hob's if it isnt raining. If its raining im going to just take him my wheels.
  2. The deciding factor for me was when i found out the were 180/55 i swear i paid for 190/55 and thats what my receipt said if i could find it. Plus i never really liked the PR1's in the twisties, never really had confidence in them. ill need to hit some local twisties next weekend to brake them in on familiar roads.
  3. I knew having kids was going to pay off. So whats the rest of you using for diversions?

    Looks good, but i thought this was going to be a thread about Sharks with frick lazers on thier heads.
  5. Looks good and to top it off it's Exarch approved:feedtrolls:
  6. WHO YOU CALL'N OLD???..im just getting better, OK maybe not ill take the previous compliment
  7. Ryan is the man, replied to me even on a holiday weekend that i interrupted with buisness...thanks man
  8. That tempting but i dont like getting on someone elses bike, i dont even like throwing a leg over them unless im invited to or have a damn good reason to. Im just funny about that Anyway ive got a appointment with Hobs on thursday to get a set of PR2's, i figure even if they lasted the trip i need a set when i got back.

    Pa chl

    ditto too.(or).ditto 2???...I GITTED MINE!!!!
  10. no how much..because i made him a offer for it
  11. Last year by the time we got back to the cabin after a day of riding no one felt like drinking much we were tuckered. Will have to work on that for this trip. I need to stick to the crown and dew, or just beer i should not do both or there wont be much of anything happening the next day for me
  12. i think as long as ryan can get me a set in and mounted this weekend im just going to change them, ive never liked the feel of these anyway...if anyone wants these for free let me know before they going the scrap pile at Hoblicks
  13. ok i just figured out why i never liked these tires and why they wore so uneven, they are 180/55..i thought they were 180/50 this whole time
  14. OK doing some pre trip inspections today and when it comes to the tires I'm scratching my head. The front is 70+% so its good. The rear is right there to be 50/50 for this trip. The center is maybe 25% left, the right 12-1 o'clock area is maybe 35%, the left 11-12 o'clock area is maybe 50%, the far outside is over 70%. As you can tell I'm far better at making rights than lefts. I'll post a pic in a few but i don't think it will tell much. What ya ll think take my own advise and make sure i have 50%+ tire for this trip or am i being over cautious? FYI im trailering down. Tires will take a huge chunk out of travel budget and if i get new ones it will be a pair not just a rear(i like matching tires), my cheapest option would be goto IP and get another PR1 mounted on the rear so i have amtch set( but i really not a fan of these any more)
  15. this is what i used http://www.lowes.com/pd_45272-412-RH200S_0__?productId=1087313&Ntt=riveter&pl=1&currentURL=%2Fpl__0__s%3FNtt%3Driveter&facetInfo= or http://www.tractorsupply.com/surebonder-slim-nose-rivet-tool-3831866 or http://www.harborfreight.com/hand-riveter-set-38353.html id be leary of this one
