A day at the shop

Didn't get ALL the way over, but here's the rear. Very happy with these tires, we'll see how long they last.

That being said...I got out today and "tested" the new tires. They have excellent grip, didn't "push" and held the lines really well. The rounder profile increased the flickability in the twisties.
Here's the front:

All you have to do is to jack up the front of the bike , remove the brake calipers, take the axle off and just turn, left for the right, the wheel and do the reverse. Just for safety sake because I live in Seattle and it rains here alot.

Drive Train!! I would always recommend replacing both sprockets with the chain. Or if the sprocket goes first same way. Although it may look good when you change the chain once you get a new chain on the old sprockets it can chew them up because they are already weak from use. So keep a close eye those sprockets Brennanop!

I just checked that last post with the busa service manual and that is exactly what it says to do. Just a heads up fellas
