Is it time to replace my battery and tire?

Is it time to replace my battery? Starts up fine every time, use the battery tender on it when not in use for more that 3 days.

Usually when I turn on the Key it lights up at 12.4 or 12.5

And how much more wear can I get on the rear tire? My next oil change
isn't for 2500 miles, about 2 more months of riding. Should I chance it ?

I hate to say it; but that tire is toast! :yikes:
Batteries; I can barely change them in a flashlight so I'll defer to the experts! :opps:

That tire is done. Change your battery every three years and get on with your life. I change the relays too. It looks like you have gotten good service out of those time change parts in any case.

Let's see..!!

The battery is a toss up. Seems fine not knowing how old it is. Batteries last different amounts for different folks. I have seen 3 to 8 and beyond. The tire is gone, time for a new one...good luck lots of choices..!! :thumbup:

I agree the tire is worn out.
Looks like it was over inflated.

Ok, replacing tire with another Kendra, 1 hour labor install I believe is fair:thumbup: They didn't have one in stock so leaving there at dealership with trailer that they are repacking/servicing the bearings.:clap:

:2thumbs: Glad to hear that you've got the bearings on your radar screen as well! :2thumbs:
(It's a lot cheaper to do them when the wheel is already off the bike, than to have to break things down again... :shocked:)
