Default Todays Ride

Well Sh#t
Left out for a 3 hour tour and had to call for a truck.Rear wheel bearings went out.Had a nice chat with some people at a place called Haynes 57 on hwy 57 just west of Basset Va. Great bunch of people.If you are in the area you should stop in.Tell them the broke down rider told you about the place.A good place to take a gas break.[:@]

better the back than the front.. that could be *really* hairy if your front tire wasn't pointing where you wanted it to be..

The front will give a little more notice,You will be able to feel the vibration sooner.The rear wheel is not linked to the rider like the front end.
