What did you do to your F6B today?

Double dark-sided her today.
Put a new Bridgestone BattleAx BT-45 on the front.

If you have the time, I would like to see a picture of the front tire. I am intrigued by "double darkside". I recently went darkside on the rear and I am really starting to like the difference in the handling and the ride.

Will,
Pics below. Only put a few miles on these today, but so far, I like em. That Toyo Proxes on the rear is a 185/60-16 that puts the speedo dead on with the GPS, it tracks good and appears to have dropped my rpms slightly. The BT-45 on the front is the same type I had on my trike for 13K miles before cupping out. Running 43 psig in the rear (not a run-flat) and 41 on the BT-45. Bike tracks great with these, but I don't have many miles on em yet. We'll see how they do loaded 2-up with luggage on our way up to the rally next week.
I did mount the BT-45 in the proper direction. It was mounted in reverse on my trike...don't ask me why as I have no idea why they did it.

Thanks for the picture! I was wondering what it was like.

I went double dark on my vtx, and really liked it. The tire rotation thing was always confusing for me. I "think"!i had the rotation backwards on the front tire, but not sure.

Should have done the same when I got the front tire replaced at 8,650. Next time I'll plan better.

Just finished with the LED turn signals, and smoked lenses on the front, and LED turn signals with a wig wag in the rear. Tomorrow, I'll add the new wind screen, and the LED flasher.

I put some Sea Foam in and filled the tank. Then I went for a nice 3 hour ride to no-ware on November 19 no less.

Now the bike is ready for winter.

If I wanted to work on a bike I would have bought a Harley.
