changing tires = pain in arse

Post by crono782 » Sun Mar 18, 2007 6:34 pm

geez, what a pain just getting the wheels off my gsxr600. switched from the dunlops to michelin pilotpower 2ct. so far i'm happy w/ them. i would've rather done my chain conversion while i had everything off, but ran outta time/patience. :-o
ah well, it was a learning experience. hopefully my alignment is good. i checked it w/ the string method and it was close enough. guess i'll see after a good hard ride.

I just got a new set of the Pilot Power 2CT's for my bike too. In fact still gotta put the wheels back on. I've never ridden on Michelin tires before but everyone seems to like them-so I figured I'd see for myself what everyone was talking about.

Na, a preppy would take the bike cause he needed new tires and leave with a new bike.
