..when I stopped for gas; after coming home from work. Normally; it reads 99 miles after being zero'ed in the morning; before I leave for work. Last night it read.... 89 mikes :shock: I was like... WTF? :?

Then it dawned on me that the new Bridgestone Exedra that I had mounted on the rear; had a slightly larger circumference. I didn't know that it would make that much of a difference though... so for every 10 miles I travel; it appears I need to mentally add 1 mile to the total.. for an almost true measurement of actual distance traveled..... :-|
