    here is an e-mail I recieved from dunlop when I e-mailed them and made an inquiry about a front tire for my 1st gen Quote: Ben - Thank you for the additional information. We are sorry to inform you that we are unable to bring this tire to the market at this time. As you probably already know, Dunlop maintains the highest standards of product performance are we are not satisfied with the performance of this tire on the older bikes which use this tire size. We will continue to develop this tire, but unfortunately, it will not be available for this summer's riding season. We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused by this situation

    This morning on the Highway , I looked over to my left and there was a Woman In a brand new Cadillac Doing 90 km-per hour With her Face up next t o her Rear view mirror Putting on her eyeliner. I looked away For a couple seconds, and when I looked back she was Halfway over in my lane, Still working on that makeup. As a man, I don't scare easily. But she scared me so much; I dropped My electric shaver , Which knocked The donut Out of my other hand. In all The confusion of trying To straighten out the car Using my knees against The steering wheel, It knocked My cell phone Away from my ear Which fell Into the coffee Between my legs, Splashed, And burned Big Jim and the Twins, Ruined the darn phone, Soaked my trousers, And disconnected an Important call. Stupid women drivers

    well we all know you need it after all getting off and pushing a 2nd gen up hills is hard work ---- if you guys were nicer we would throw you a line and tow you up those hills instead we have to wait up the road and kill a few while we wait:rasberry::rasberry:

    That would be a total waste of time and effort . If you really truly want to keep your eyes on 1st gens get a pair of binoculars and look straight ahead:thumbsup:

    700r4 was ran up to 1992 and did not use much in the way of elctronics. the electronics were introduced later when it was renamaed 4L60-E . you still will require some speacial tools but overall they are not that difficult.

    As long as they have been stored inside in a cool area and not exposed the sun or high heat temperatures I cant see there being any problem with using them.

    Ive seen it happen maney times on first run tires one being my own. It had a slow leak and I didnt stay on top of it Finally it just split all the way around. In any case the main thing here is that no one got hurt.

    That type of side wall failure is typical of a tire that has either been running under inflated or carried to heavy a load the side wall flex's too much over heats and lets go.

    35 Years ago i had a similar incident, 2 cars were beside me in the lane next to me when car B decided to pass car A and pulled into my lane as if I wasn't even there squeezing right between me and car A. Fortunatly nothing happend. Well almost nothing my buddy who was behind me decided to catch up and pass car B and in doing so tossed out a hand full nuts which pinged of the car's rad and windshield ( he tended to carry them in his pocket for just such occasions).

    Last night my son and his fiance tied the knot. The girl he married was as beatifull as the angle she is.From day one three years ago his bride had made herself a part of the familly and almost instantly became like daughter to us,so welcoming her as part of the familly was easy seeing as how she already had become a part long ago. Of course my son could not for go getting me in trouble with my wife one more time. He invited me to go outside for a drink and a cigar. I am not or ever have been a smoker and my wife detests smoking and my wife caught me smoking, she was not pleased to say the least.Other than that the banquit was great excelent food, good music and a wonderfultime was had by all.

    You wouldn't dare put old faithful out would you ? what lack of gratitude. The new scoot is a beauty though and we all know there comes a time in some riders lives when all show is more important then all go. Just don't forget old faithful I'm sure she still wants to stretch her legs once in awhile.

    Ive only ever been on one group ride (always rode either solo or with 1 or 2 buddys) and that was at Marcarls meet and eat. I was glad that the group captian asked if anyone was familiar with or new to group riding. He then went on to explain how they like to do things and the various signals used on down the line to to keep everyone in the know as to what was ahead. It made for a very enjoyable, safe ride. It never hurts to make sure everyone is on the same wavelength.
