Yep, I got em. When I put the Kenda back on I'll give it a try. Never used one but with the 7 sets I've change and never popping a tube, I'm pretty sure I can figure it out.
*shhh...don't tell anyone, but the first couple times I did my tires I brought my laptop out to the garage so I could watch the video why doing it. I guess you never rode Walker Valley with us before your last ripped off valve stem. That Kenda was looking like it was going to get some traction that day. Ill admit I have watched a video for tricks and refresh a few times before heading out to the shop to change out tires. Get one of those tire changing stands, it makes tire changing a lot better on the back. Best $100 I ever spent. Look forward to hitting the trail with ya again soon Inspector. | |

| Wednesday noon I ordered a 2.75-21 and 4.10-18 Shinko 244 and a pair of grips from Motorcycle Superstore in Medford. Total of $64 with free shipping. They were delivered to my house in Bend in under 24 hours. I think that was super good service and a very good price.
