Don't you worry about bending the rim with those humongous tire irons? It was a PITA using the little 6 or 8 inchers when we did all of our tires in December, but even with them it seemed like we were close to tweaking the rim. I'm pretty sure we're investing in one of those tire stands for the next go-round of rubber... what a pain. I want some better rubber (even though the Dunlops are wearing well) but giving up a Saturday and functioning of my hands for a week sounds like a bust until its necessary

Lookin' good!

Your rear brake fluid is roasted. Your front sprocket is whipped and why is your speedo cabel just hanging there?

yeah I saw a bike a month ago that said just about that except it was a wr 450 not a klx. It was so whipped that I wouldn't even make an offer on it.

LOL Dude, the front sprocket looks exactly as the day I put it on nearly 10,000 miles ago, and the brake fluid is fine. And the speedometer cable is hanging there because you have to take off the front tire to change the brakes.

Nah, I wish I had the shark fin, I wish I had a lot of things, but I guess in today's economy and with millions of people losing thier jobs, I'm just glad to still be working. I have less than two payments left on my Dodge truck, and then less than a year on the Camry, that will free up nearly $800.00 a month for things like food and what not.
