Spring 2011 - Tire Replacement Update

Went to Flamingo...
They took care of it right away when I went there around 9:15am.
Hopefully riding tomorrow.

Spring 2011 - Tire Replacement Update

I went to put the wheel back on the bike and decided to do a sanity check. I had Flamingo Motor Sports mount and balance the tire on the wheel. Upon inspection, I found the tire mounted backward. I guess it is a ride back to Flamingo to get this addressed.

Spring 2011 - Vulcan 1500 rear tire replacement

On March 19, I raise the bike for the first time on the lift, to replace the rear tire. This was not too bad with the lift. I had to make some pads to lift the bike on 4 points above the lift, since the motor extends below the bike frame. I did this with 4 hockey pucks that I modified slightly to help keep the bike in place.
