    14000 miles today and....

    I'm going to Sturgis in Aug So I needed and wanted to do a few thinks before I go. So today I put my new Bridgestone Potenza 195/55R-16 a new K&N filter and 6 NGK Iridium plugs. Now my bike is ready to go and won't have to worry about anything for 50,000 or more

    I had the Bridgestone Potenza on my Valk and IMO it was a little square on the edges for me……just sayin….

    I'll be @ Elkview with my sister and her husband's club. My husband has no desire to willingly go into a sea of inebriated black leather..

    Mike wants to put the bike on display in his compound again.

    One Week later on the Dark Side..

    One week later and 600+ miles...So far I really like my new tire. It takes a bit to get use to the lean. When I put the tire on I had had 38 lbs but as of today I dropped it down to 32ish lbs. Hook

    Not this time. I'm in So. Utah. It would be quite the drive and the gas for the RV would kill my limited budget.
    Sturgis will be a quick drive up from Denver and I'll be living there by then.
