Some interesting food for thought.
Specially as some of us tend to leave the old hard tires on "til we know it's a runner"
And it's getting to the cold time of year here in the northern hemisphere.
Takes some thinking to see exactly what deadly combo he's describing and how to avoid it.
 
So true. Last week I was about to take the Bonneville out for a ride. First time on it since early June. Both tires 10-15 #'s low!

Any frost yet up your way Gary?
 
Not even close to frost temps yet or for all of next week. Got up at 1:30 this morning and opened windows, house was too warm. Just the slightest tinges of color in the trees. I'll wave on the way by your place next weekend RD, off to Barber on the lounge chair RSV.
