But, you need one, to carry one of these home!



Yup, a Kenda rear tire, going on the front! After a year of threatening Jabba, to come down and get it, he, I, and Neal (it IS Neal, right??) met for lunch at a great Guatemalan restaurant. Strapped her down, and home we went.

Jabba told me I should wear it home, like a hula-hoop, but I thought that would look too much like a tu-tu...

Nice meeting two more members here. That makes a total of...well....TWO!   ;D

Thanks again, Jabba!!

Jabba could have just carried it in his shirt pocket !  :o    What is so hillbilly about your innovation?  Looks practical to me,but a few streamers tied to it around your waist would have made great photos !
;D

Close enough...  It was nice to meet another VRCC guy and have lunch....

Because my softside big duffel (with travel clothes) hangs down over my solo rack to rub the paint on the bag lids, I zip tied a half inch dowel across my solo rack to keep it off the paint. (it also makes access to the bags much easier while traveling)

To get a tire to the shop for install on my solo supervalk, I wear it around my waist on the ride over (like a hula-hoop), including a car tire. Do get some strange looks.... "yeah, it's a new safety device... if I fall off, I just roll to the side of the road."

Squealy says it was hell as a kid to have a verb as a name.

I always tell him he should try being named after a toilet.

:2funny:

Good to meet you too pal.  Lunch was good.  And... CHEAP.

I have one around my middle also, wear it all the time....not black though. Kinda pinkish with a small indentation in the middle. Wonder if that's where the valve used to be?!?!

    Forget the rack, I'm digging the white bags with the in process sanding marks. Kinda hotrodish :cooldude:

Jabba,
the Kenda will drop you 5 mph on the speedo. it wears forever though. i have 6000 miles on mine and it still looks good.

I wouldn't dream of telling you not to like it. I just didn't. Cost me about $75 and an extra R&R on the front wheel to find out. I got an open mind. To each their own... I got way more ideas than cash. If I had $$$ I'd have some COOL stuff.

zip-tie a chromium plated bbq grill to your luggage rack to support your stuff... and you be cruise'n. And style'n. Yrmv...
