Talking about/worrying about chicken strips is lame. Focus on your riding instead of your tires.

... im slow, not much to worry about :p

I check my tires every time I ride. Not the strips but their condition. Pressures and what I may have run over. No one I have ever ridden with has ever said a word about unused rubber on the sides of my tires, but many have complimented me on being smooth.

Lack of strips may mean your doing it right, but also lack of may mean your doing it wrong!

BTW I have fallen in love with this smiley and will be including it in all future posts:diitb:

it was a set up for my following post...

created these going in a straight line, down the highway in a wind storm...

i was runnin on only the right side of the tire for 30 miles, in a straight line

stop worrying about your damn tires and wash your fucking bike... that thing is a mess

Tends to happen on a couple thousand mile trip across most of the country.

no shit, and im tralioring it down to nashville saturday, so its not like im gonna let it sit in a garage and ignore it, i plan on beautifing it up when i get the chance, not now though its still packing and planning time

Wind strips. Once I was riding up to Boulder on 93, which parallels the foothills. The wind was steady about 40mph from the west, and I was heading north. I had a Suzuki GT750 with a Vetter fairing. The bike was leaned about 30 degrees to the left, but with the wind, the bike was going straight. Until I went past a small hill and the wind stopped. The bike would go across the double yellow. And there were several dozen small hills. Only about 20 miles, but it was worse than riding in a thunderstorm.

There you go... clean it and then trailor it 500 miles and fuck it up again.

That'll be one of the more interesting reads within my blog.

yes, please clean that thing. its gonna be the first time i see it in person.

Front and rear... my strips are gone.

sandpaper?

osp has a way with words, im letting him say his peace before i put my blog together

318 grit.

you got that right. very dramatic storytelling.

That's what your mom's patch feels like after she hasn't shaved in forever. Hurts my face.

Am I riding too hard on the street when I have tire residue(rubber) stuck to my license plate? I'm noticing that the PP's are spinning more and more when i accelerate hard out of the corners.

Don't lie Drewpy... that front is only like that cause it was carring massive man weight!!!

riding 2 up i had to inflate my tires to 67psi just to keep them off the rim, we figured 500# of riders and a 484 pound rc51, that close to 1,000 pounds of weight flying around deals gap, frick that, and trip wondered why we didnt keep up

What's the GVWR for the RC?

i dont know, but we prolly exceeded it, i was thing gw

67 lbs???? Damn, thats way over max inflation, you are lucky that shit didn't explode.

Seriously.

you adjusted the suspension too, right?

yeah, when we got to wheelers he set it up with zach and my ass on it, before that we would hit an ant then bottom out

damn, didnt you even think to stiffen it up a bit.

i cant imagine what would have happened if you hit a beetle.

:lol:

with all that weight you probably had your front tire a couple inches off the ground the whole time... and now have the worlds longest wheelie... from colorado springs to Deals Gap :lol:
