I know how you feel.

On Saturday I took the front wheel off the Valkyrie, and removed the tire.

On Sunday I put the new tire on the wheel.

This afternoon, I think I'll put the wheel back on.

How long will it take us to replace my back tire then??......I'm gonna have to order one soon and plan a weekend where you could help me......before the Memorial Day ride hopefully......got to order some Ride-on if'n we aren't using wheel weights......guess it says it does all the balancing?.......looks like this Cobra has about 7,000ish miles on it......the center of the tire is pretty slick..... :( :(

If you come early, we'll get it done... I've got weights and a static balancer if you don't have rideon with you.

I left out the part where I started at three or four in the afternoon each day, and had to walk all over the property, including
over to the barn a few times to find this allen wrench or that #22 socket...

My back tire is basically a slick too, I ordered a new one yesterday... unless you're coming over this weekend,
I'm plan to do my back tire then, or, if the tire doesn't show up, have my bike on the lift with the back
wheel off... I'm going to put on one of those final drives I refurbished - if you think car tires cause flaming death,
just wait  :2funny:

Oh yeah... I got three bottles of ride on from amazon for a good price, and it came in just a few days...
