I guess you had to take the rear wheel off to clean out all that Georgia clay, huh? I still have not washed my bike. Bought it April 22 and have put 4600 miles on it, yet haven't taken a hose, plastic polish, or any type of soap to it. I may have to soon, as it's now completely covered in bugs from last night's ride.

Did you change the tire just because of the GA clay, or were your tires really shot?

Yeah. There was barely even the pattern. It would have offered no rain puddle diversion... The wife would have no approved either... need it to be just "so" for our trip. Besides with the new warrenty, it don't matter. Why push it... the next one is free.

Just goes to show... Gas Man garage goes to 4 wheels



Of coarse I set him up in style. And you know how he repays me for my hospitality and sweat? He calls me names, breaks a glass jar full of brake fluid all over my driveway. Then gives me shit about it all...

What a pal!!! I tell ya...
