    I used the machine at a friends Tire shop. Won't do that again, I'll leave it up to him from now on.
    I've spent most my money on Motorcycles and Women, the rest I just wasted.

    I hope the local tire gorilla doesn't destroy my wheel when he mounts the Michellin Alpine PA3 I have...

    .. .on a slightly related note; .I remember Fredericktown Yamaha telling me to never come back for another tire mounting; when I brought in a 240 tire to mount on my past Rocket III. Those British wheels on that bike have no wheel wells; terribly difficult apparently for new tires to be mounted. Apparently it seriously kicked their butt. Or they didn't know what they were doing. And they SELL Rocket III's...
