Don't know how I missed it ...but I went on a ride with the back tire bald on my bagger and it blew at 70mph...
I slid into a rest stop sideways and didn't dump it...Heading back up there with a new tire now... :cry:
Ride it...Break it...Fix it...Repeat...

Hi Andre,

Glad to hear that you didn't go down, baggers are hard to crawl out from under. Check your shorts while you are at it.

Best,

I'm thinking my back wheel may not be lined up properly...Good project for next week...
When I went to fix the bike this morning...I got there at the same time as a couple in a truck with a flatbed trailer and ramp...
They looked at me and drove back the way they came from...I think my bike was a couple minutes from getting stolen... :smileo:

Good timing there bud.  :up:
Send me your addy and size and I'll send you new undies.

Check those tires often, ok?

   Glad to here your ok tireater, high speed blowout's are no fun for sure.  Checked my rubber today, it was in the same shape it was in 10yrs ago,  good thing I keep it in my wallet. :embarrassed:
