    Federal tire

    Came in from work and started working with tire again got one side to seat using wd-40 80 psi . second side not so good blew the bead apart and scared me just a little. Bike down till I get another tire. Dont know what I will buy this time, 10,000 on Avon rode great, thought I would try a federal for better mileage. Nothing hurt but my feelings.

    Federal tire

    Tried everything but the fire bomb no luck. Can only get 80 psi from my compressor. It will hold air but bead is not seating all the way to the outside of rim. Will try again tomorrow after work may need more psi. Just does not want to seat straight on either side. Thanks for all the suggestions. Not giving up yet.

    Federal tire

    Just wiped off with rag not with a wire brush will go try, I have spent more time trying to set bead than taking off and mounting tire. Thanks

    Federal tire

    Left it outside while taking rear tire off. It is taking air but will not seat all the way around on either side.
  23. Need info. on how to seat bead . Used dish washing liquid and 80 lb psi no luck . jmc
  24. Looks like a great day of riding. I missed getting to ride up with KYrider, wife had to work. Would you tell them I have already seen pictures, he won't have to tell me a thing about the ride. You all have a nice day tomorrow and a safe trip home. Tell Bill and Marilyn HI from Sedalia .
