Looks like miles of burnouts left on those.
Nat, I'd just fitted two new tyres prior to this ride.
I get about 8-9 K Km's out of the set.
My "Garden ornament" is growing :D

Hey Paul! Beautiful - can you give us some info on those front rotor discs?

These are Artrax disc's.
They were hanging on the wall at a local M/C shop, when I asked how much it was something like NZ$400 each..... Nope, not paying that.
Anyway, every time I went in there these disc's "snagged my eyeball" !
So I made an offer of something like NZ$400 for the pair.
Pete the parts manager said O.K. better cash in the till than those hanging on the wall, they've been there 8 years !

As long as ya got that stack in the garden, might as well use them to grow ya some 'taters in next spring Paul. Start with one, fill it up with dirt and some seed 'taters. When the sprouts get up 8 inches or so, throw another tire on and fill it with dirt. Keep repeating till yer out of tires.

Wait until fall then just kick the stack over and you'll have more 'taters than ya can swing a cat at.:thumbsup:
will it grow new tyres ? :thumbsdown:

I know and certainly a few others here know just how hard you gotta push to wear a tyre that thorough and that quick . I wouldn't wanna race you old man !

It's that old saying Nat, 'How good are the brakes ? Dunno, never use them" :D
I don't go fast, i just don't slow down for the corners.
