Got New Tires
installed today. Took the wheels off today. Dropped them off at the indy to have new rubber put on. When I was putting the wheels back on, Patti came out and helped me with the wrenching........

I put Metz on again. I've had a replacement 150 rear sitting in the basement since Oct of 07. They gave me a free one to replace the 150 that was really about a 135.

I did do the vent mod, but don't have many miles since I did it.

Curious Warren, what kind of mileage did you get out of your Metz's? I'm about 6,000 miles into mine, and I don't think they're gonna go past 8 or 9.

For the life of me I can't figure out why I'm chewing up my front tire so quickly. I killed the front Dunlop well before the rear as well.
