New front tires

[tfeverfred]

I finally got some new front tires. A member of the NTBA, Phil, gave me a sweet deal on the pair. First thing I noticed was she steers easier due to a smaller contact patch. Secound.... they just make Miss Behavin' look awesome.

Thanks, old friend. She's very basic and I like it that way. No headaches and she makes me smile. That's all I ever wanted.

Hey Fred, what is the height of your windshield? Mine is 16" high and I've decided to cut 4" off.

Haha Mine is 14" and I'm playing with the idea of going to a 16". I can ride with a hat on and the wind goes over my head, so changing to a taller windshield is just a passing thought. May do it when I have disposable income. Could be a while.
