you got it replaced with the qualifier? i guess so because you had the made in taiwan special before. it was probably tahoe's cousin that made that tire. that's why it blew on you.

 

well that is what i am going to get it replaced with. the tire that blew was the 110 and i do not know what brand it is. But i am going to get the qualifier front tire to match the qualifier that i have on the rear.

 

it was a maxxis or maxxim or whatever tire...
no my cousin didn't make that tire...he plants rice for a living.

 

good choice. i wouldn't mix and match with tires. good luck getting it fixed. are you from sd or were you just riding there?

 

yeah i am from SD i actually live in el cajon. WHere are you from? any local SD guys here? would love to ride and meetup with some fellow f2 owners

 

i'm from huntington beach. quite a distance from sd though.

 

Heal up and ride again soon!

 

Sorry to hear you went down......
I hate to see or hear about any fellow MC rider hit the ground. I am glad you are ok. (Looks like the helmet did its job...thank goodness!)
Hope you heal up quickly and aren;t feeling too much pain. Roadrash never feels good but if thats all you ended up with then <whew>.
As for tires, I would refrain from mix n matching them. I run Metzlers on my ride I have a buddy who has Dunlops both good brands. I'm curious, had you checked tire pressure or looked at them for wear prior to them giving out?
Anyhow, glad your still wiyj us and things didn't turn out any worse.

 

yeah the tire presure was ok on them. I made sure i checked that on the way out. but i will make sure i wear good rubbers next time! haha :P

 

can someone take a pic of there rear set (just the left side) a kinda close up picture. I am trying to see if the bar is bent to on mine. Not sure if it is supposed to be in the spot it is. Thanks
