    this has nothing to do with nothing, but when was the last time you southern folks, maybe even northern folks or anyone for that matter. had a good old cold glass of milk and a slice of cornbread cooked in saved bacon grease. and you dunked that slice of cornbread in that glass of milk. or just had it with some real old fashion butter. well if you can't remember well that's too long. hot d--- momma i'am back home. peace & love to all best reguards don c.

    hi all let me add this i ran a me880 130/90-16 for over 22,ooo miles. while using a bfg 155/80r-15 for over 31,000 miles, i had no problems period. i just went to a kumho 165/80-15 on the rear and a avon corba 150/80r-16 the front. man what a difference should have done this sooner. will report back as i rack up more miles, especillay runing the 3-sisters here in west texas. don c.

    add me to the list also. put in 8oz two weeks ago, when ponch & kabay came over to help on the bike. didn't get to ride for a whole week. well tuesday i made up for it (almost 300 miles). installed new avon crobra front tire (tuesday eneving) and the week before installed the kunmo c/t on the rear. now i don't think it's my mind playing tricks on me. but i feel /noticed a difference in the noise level. i have never paid much thought to the noise of the clutch basket or the stright cut gears of our tranny's. because my beast has the bub 4-in-2 exhaut system all ready instaled on it, i bought it used 4 years ago. i guess what i trying to say is there is a difference now. i turned off the radio and listen to the engine, i was wearing a shority helment. there was no noise coming from the right side of the beast, all the noise was coming from the tranny/ drive shaft side of the bike. anyway i'll be putting more miles on the bike and reporting back with my observations. don c.

    got the corbra mounted on the beast tuesday after 5:00 pm. ran some lite twistes (the montgomery trace) and i-45 back to houston. wow what a ride, i will have to agree that the crobra/ kumho are the way to go. bike was rock solid thru the twisties and freeway speeds upwards of 100 mph. at normal speeds set the cruise control and let go, not a issue with one hand holding the bars. its like all i have to do is just think to go left or right and the bike goes. the two radials work well together. now to give the 3-sisters a run. will post more as i give this combo more time and miles. don c.
