Yesterday’s ride was so nice.  I didn’t end up getting a chance to take any pictures or video because it was so nice I didn’t want to get off the bike.  We didn’t end up riding up the mountain anyway.  My father in law wanted to cruise along on his V-Star, so we just rode around the lakes and enjoyed the day.  It’s supposed to be 69 today and 71 tomorrow (yes in  January after the high barely reached 32 last week), so we’ll be riding a lot this week.

We really need a new tire, so I’m happy it’s got at least enough meat left on it for a couple more rides. It looks like I’ll be ordering either another set of Pirellis or Pilot Powers as they’re giving us the best results.  I would love to be running 2CT’s, but they just don’t make them to fit the YZF 600r.  We can’t run a 180…booo…at least not safely without changing the sidewall of the tire.

There is an alternative that I’m going to discuss with hubby.  It involves changing over to the FZR rear rim.  We might just have to consider that.
