REDBACK TOURERS - ONCE BITTEN RALLY

Funny bout your front looking a bit sad, my front was balling up too :boohoo: And there was me wondering why her indoors was showing me white knuckles :banana:  Now back to the purpose of this post
I run the 009 on the rear of the b6, its the hardest of the shinko range rated as a sports tourer. The next softest is the 005 makes a good front so I have been told. Then for the real loonie tunie the sports 003. soft enough that some say "I carnt believe it aint butter". Bruce Collins Enterprises is the wholesale distributor here in Vic if you have trouble.

I checked with the local Bike tyre specialists and he had heard of Shinko's, infact he used to sell lots of them, but after a few people experienced "failures" their popularity dropped off.

Anyway he can do me a 'deal' on an M1 front for $199, which to me sounds pretty damn good.

The next hurdle though is getting the treasurers Duke a new chain and sproket set and a service. No change from $1000.00.

The other crappy thing is when we picked the youngest up from the babysitters Janice just happened to look at the rego label, due 1st April,  :duh:   so the front tyre is going to have to last a bit longer yet.  I suppose I'll just have to ride a bit slower round corners for a while. :crybaby:

There's nothing sweeter than the feeling I get leaned over in a long sweeper while the sun shines over fields of wind-swept grasses and trees that bracket me, the bike, and the warm lovely sitting tightly against my back.

Paki, Septic -  I even have trouble understanding those two, the Yanks and Canadians would have buckleys.
