• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

New Tires to Mount - Is Walmart Automotive qualified - anyone use them?

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

i will never understand why those who love their ride look for the cheapest way out when doing things with it

:yikes:.....And I will never understand how after paying a Dealer $125 per hour they can't get the OIL LEVEL correct ......I guess I didn't pay them ENOUGH :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:.....................PS......no amount of MONEY can fix STUPID ........jmho....Mike :thumbup:
 
Jim,

I took mine to a tire shop in Eden Prairie and they removed the old tires and mounted the new and with disposal fees for the old tires the bill came to $67.00. I am sure you will find a tire shop close to you that can do the same.
I did not have them balance the tires as I use Ride On for that.

If you and Teresa are going on the Caswell ride next weekend we will not be joining you as Kathy and I are going to the SOAR event in Wisconsin.

Hope we can do a ride together soon!

Thanks Les...I will find a shop around here that won't harm the chrome rims when mounting the tires....thanks for the $ reference that you paid. I plan on using ride on and will not have them balanced just like you did. I am hopeful for a little smoother ride from the new tires and ride on! I could stretch another 5K miles out of the tires, but am not going to risk it. The rear Kumho and the original front Kendas are getting near the wear bars and worth changing at this time to be safe!

Also, just installed the BajaRon shock adjusters. Wow, with the BajaRon high performance sway bar and the shock adjuster, this machine really handles corners. We notice when riding 2 up, that the shock adjusters have helped on the roll of the bike during corners!

We will NOT be going to the MN Spyderlovers ride on Aug 15th as well. We are going to a wedding on the North Shore that weekend. Enjoy the SOAR event and we'll catch up with you and Kathy some other time....ride safe.

Jim
