    Gone to clean your dusty wheel??

    hmm... mighty wide. Except that you have now proved you have ridden it, but not enough for even the top ones to wear...

    Plenty of time to decrease it, be careful with the brand new sides, less grip...

    Now, if you really want the bike to look neat, you should pop some armourall (or whatever) on the whole tyre to make it look nice and shiny

    Don't do that, by the way...

    This is how you lean a Gixxer 1K. K5 600 shouldn't be too different. I had a 600 pic knocking around here somewhere too......

    Even Nana Jim had sorted that issue out within a day.

    Geez that's funny. It looks like you are "unwearing" the tyre.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    just don't think about it. Bike should naturally lean into corners. Just watch out i find that for some reason the front and back start to slide a little when under power and cranked over..... really wierd that??
