Hi Rob, I know they are pain to get seated. But I too cannot see going back to a bike tire. It is a hard thing to put into words how they ride. Logic would suggest that it should not work. This time logic is wrong! I hope you have as much success ...

Hey Jeff............. Well I made the switch to the darkside. Goodyear Triple Tread on an '05 Suzuki C-90. Found a local independent bike shop that TRIED to mount it for me. Aired it up to 100 PSI and couldnt get it to seat. Went back to the tire ...

Hi John, That is a good question! You may try asking that on the dark side forum. Also you could try talking to someone at a tire store. They should be able to look at your rim size to see what would fit on it. I would measure the Clearance on you...

Hey Jeff,
You make me want to go ride after talking about your bike ride. Hope the weather breaks soon so you can get out more. Ride safe.

Hey Jeff,
I think I saw an article on riding with ice studs on the bikes during the winter. Have you ever done that. We can always hope for better March weather to get in a ride.Thanks for the info on the bike.

Hey Jeff,
I understand the old part,but I will never admit it. I like to think that everyone else is getting older and I am just hangin' in there. I had looked at a FJR at a dealers showroom and would like to ride one but the dealer feels like I should put down my money then decide after I buy it.. Funny concept to me. I thought it would be an interesting 2nd bike. I have always liked that design on the BMW. If I can get my riding buddy "out of Egypt" for a few days at atime I would like to ride up into the nothern states. I hope the weather will break soon.

For real Jeff,

You put 18k on your bike this year, seeing that you have what, 4 to 5 months of good riding. Now I am getting a bit depressed, seeing that you have that many miles on your bike. For me, I purchased my bike late in May, back in '05 and currently, I only have 22k :(. Depending on how things go for me, I think that I would like to take a trip cross country.

Jeff,

You make me jealous, for I only put approximately 12k on my bike. I am always looking to take trips wherever they may take me.

Hey Jeff,

I would like to welcome you to the club. I like the color of your bike and I hope that you still have time to take it out.

Ride safe.

Thanks ~~~ David
