The yellow dot indicates the lightest part of the tire and should be aligned with the valve stem. 180º and you'll be using a ton of extra lead.

I'd like to see the original (1st one) brought back! My 2 short sleeve versions are paper thin and need replacing.

I checked my valves last year @ 24,000 miles and all were dead on perfect in the middle of the chart. A bit of a waste of time but at least it's out of the way and I no longer have to worry about it. Probably won't bother again until 50,000. I believe if you break a bike in properly (NOT using...

Well, the front practically installed itself. :) Had the old tire off and the new one on in about 5 minutes. I wonder if the rear being nearly 3 years old had anything to do with it? o_O Can't wait to try them out as this profile looks more aggressive than the original BT56 and even Avons that...

If you do your own installs, stay away from these. Mounted the rear today and holy hell! Between 3 bikes, I have mounted dozens of tires using my Harbor Freight setup and never had an issue. Let it sit on the asphalt in the sun for hours before starting and tried every trick I know of. Even...

Tires arrived this afternoon. Rear was made July of 2014...not exactly fresh but acceptable. Front was made April of 2016.

Thanks! Just completed check out and the $189.85 alone is cheaper than most off brands like Shinko. Hopefully they'll have a fresh date code. If the rebates come through, the $139.85 will be the best deal I got on tires yet.

All those turbo bikes started off life with as a standard production vehicle. They came off a showroom floor with a valid certificate of origin and a VIN that allowed it to be titled in the US. How would someone go about registering a bike that doesn't have a proper certificate of origin...

Hopefully they'll disband now that their resident lawyer is gone.

Westboro church founder Fred Phelps dies - CNN.com Anyone planning on attending this d-bag's funeral? :rofl:

It's 2014...next to impossible for a person to disappear in a car yet a commercial airliner disappears off the face of the planet? Shot down and covered up? Hijacked and being loaded up with things I won't even mention on here? Only thing for certain is no gubment will ever give a truthful...

If they're sending the same HACKS, you're problems won't go away. Did you see the outside condenser running at 10°? The system is supposed to AUTOMATICALLY go to EM heat (gas or electric) at a preset temperature...usually 40°. The control is either an old fashioned thermostat in the condenser...

Get 'em fixed and litter box train them. My last rabbit, Bud, was 11 years old when he had his first accident. It was enough concern to take him to the vet only to find out he had cancer. My current rabbit, Roxie. I think she's finally fully gown...pushing over 20 lbs.

I've yet to watch an episode of this show and only have a vague idea of what it's about. So....is this something different than all the other scripted/do anything for ratings, reality shows aimed at the average brain dead American? Or are the people up in arms over this the same type who were...

I went with State Farm 10 years ago as they were so cheap with the new Busa. Car and homeowner's were on par with my previous company so I was happy. As the years go by, their rates are getting stupid. Part of what pisses me off is they keep increasing the rebuild value of my property which...
