Re: Three together
I'm curious as to what kinds of comments do you get about using a car tire over there....

Re: Three together
Always attracts a crowd
I'm told by other RIII club members that it looks alarming riding behind me, with all that daylight under the tyre when cornering.
All I can say is, I've yet to meet someone who's tried the darkside then gone back to mc tyres.

Re: Three together
Hello Steve,
Sure was quite an alarming sight riding behind you, seeing all the daylight under your tyre when cornering.
If I wasn't on the darkside myself, I don't think seeing that would have converted me
Monkeyhanger has dropped out now, so will be riding down from Eurotunnel alone.

It is a custom made 'Predator' system, made by 'Travelguy' in California, from the www.r3owners.com forum.
Has a Supertrapp shorty silencer (muffler) with removeable baffles.

Re: Three together
Thank you Jerry.
Still a work in progress.
Each time I think I've got it finished there seems to be something else I can't live without

That is too damn funny
I hate it too when I pull my perfectly dirty, rode hard bike up to someones nice shiny scoot. Makes me want to trade it in on a cleaner model
See you out there
