New front tire

I had a new front tire mounted and balanced at a local shop in Huffman that works mostly on V twin type bikes. They did the job for 25 bucks with me bringing the wheel in off the bike. They wanted 75 if they took it off. Guy ask me how long I had be riding my valk and how many miles I had on it. I said about 9 yrs total and the bike has 150 thousand miles on it. It blew him away and then he ask how many clutches I had put in it. I told him it was still running the stock clutch and again he was floored. Then he said I must ride it really easy and I said no not all the time. My question is do I ride mine real easy?

I think we've had that discussion before, the answer is absolutely not. I think most of the time you're trying to kill it, so you can get another one. LOL
BTW, did you see the one I have posted for another VRCC'r, identical to yours, just cheaper.

If you are riding and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast.
