Maxing out the Excedra

[Ugarte]

Squeezed it out down to just about the last mile......

Nearly 50 years ago I made a clipboard in junior high school woodshop, it was my first project. The only thing I've ever used it for is to help install the huge and heavy rear wheel on the Rocket. Nice to finally get some use out of it after hauling it around for decades.....

You got your money's worth outta that tire!
This was my last Excedra Max.

Wow, now that is pushing it to the max! Nothing like getting a good return on your money.

Geez, talk about stretching a dollar...@Ugarte & 1olbull, So how many miles did both you squeeze outta those tires?

Been guilty myself of rocking into Tyres 4 Bikes with similar " nearly worn out tyres " .. hahahaha

Eff that you only have two tyres keep them in good condition, plus if were pulled over a nice ticket would be waiting for you well two tickets one for going 100mph plus and one for a bald tyre.

Ok, I am not worthy for sure, i got nearly 16,000 miles with my Excedra maxes and they did not look like this; how many miles is that?

That clipboard looks like it would stop a bullet. P.S When I was a young apprentice butcher I was known to walk around the shop with a clipboard and a pen doing nothing in particular but LOOKING like I was doing something and basically left to my own devices, especially on Wednesdays which was sausage making day - I hated making f#$king sausages!!!!!!

I'm lucky if I get 6,000. It's gotta be the RED PAINT !

Sorry to divert this thread, my 22 yo son is a butcher now, started when he was 16 and seems to be very good at it. The owner of the shop let him make his own receipies for a few sausages and they are now his top sellers. The kid is loking into culinary school; and he rides a Ninja 1000.
