Thanks but the colors are a mile off. This is closer but the other shot is a better angle.

So far I am wearing good, maybe in a few hundred miles the rubber will wear off quick but so far I am happy with the breakout, including the tire wear.

To much chrome for me, I decided to settle for a little 1690cc engine instead which is bigger than many cars on the road now.

I prolly go through a set or two of tires a year to a year and a half.

Had my bike about 5 years and been through about 7 sets of tires, and believe me.. I wear them down... and do not replace them till they are down to the cord.


Big dirt tires look great, but wear fast, especially on the front..

And those tires make it drive like a truck.. don't like them much other than looks

Sounds good to me, just remember my top speed is about 60 mph. 65 downhill.
