That car tire was a PITN to get off that rim. Just got back from Dalai's house on my new cobra rear tire
The worst news of the day is I cant use those bag rails that I spent all day polishing as long as I have the bushtec hitch on the bike - not compatible.
I suppose I can either take off the hitch (not going to happen) or put the rails up on ebay
Dalai said they go for 700 plus

That would buy books for my son in college next year something to think about
It was raining pretty hard on the way home and I was riding just 55-60 with my flashers on, not going to push on a new slippery tire on an oily highway.
Turned over 50000 on the way to Dalai's house also WOOOHOOO !!! Now she is gettin broken in.
