Best tires for a metric cruiser?

Discussion in 'Motorbike Technical Discussion' started by That One, Nov 11, 2009.

  1. Actually, that's the phrase Avon used for their Roadrunners.
    They didn't, once you got off the vertical. SMs were squarish section. I
    think you're muddling them up with Roadrunners.
    Annd all your blathering has *nothing* to do with your essential
    inanity, which was to tell people to fit the OE tyres.

    Oh, and learn the difference between typos when something's knocked up
    in haste and crap language. The first is me. The second is you.

    And the Bridgestones were called Exedras, btw.

  2. Protecting the world from all the "misinformation" that I seem to be
    spreading must be a challenging task, consuming most of your day.

    However, I suspect that you'll find somebody else to follow around the
    interweb
    when I'm gone, as a long-nosed busybody's work is never done...

    P'raps it really isn't that your nose is so long, it's that your chin
    is so short and that makes it easier to get your nose closer to
    everybody's plumbing...

    And this is why you have no credibility.

    It is, rather.

    Just in this thread you've managed to advise people to fit (say) 30
    year-old tyres to 30 year-old bikes (if they can be obtained), given
    an unwanted treatise on (the lack of) Japanese natural rubber
    production, managed to mis-spell two major tyre types, confused Avon
    Speedmasters with Avon Roadrunners, called Cheng Shin tyres crap on
    the basis of your experiences of several decades ago, told the world
    that they're Chinese tyres when they're not, and used your antique
    crappy old Suzuki as some sort of benchmark for tyre technology.

    I honestly can't think of anyone who's managed to make so many
    mistakes, and prove themselves so ignorant, in one short thread of
    (checks) 26 postings.

  5. As if a WOP like you even knows the difference between "frijole" and
    "fagiole"...

  6. I honestly can't imagine any rational person keeping track of supposed
    "errors" made by a total stranger thousands of miles away, and then
    spending his precious life pointing out the supposed errors to Useless
    Net news groups.

    That makes about as much sense as singing opera down a toilet...

    But *you* are the one who bangs on about how important it is that you
    give advice to people in this ng. And Usenet is a global medium, isn't
    it?
    They're not supposed. Or are you going to deny that you told everyone
    Cheng Shin is a crappy Chinese tyre brand?
    If they're useless, why are you here?

    And I can't imagine a rational person telling people thousands of
    miles away that they're homosexual.....

  8. The only advice I can offer is get tires with *air* in them!

    Last Friday, I rode over to my local dealer for my annual state
    inspection. I got in line behind a guy with a Victory cruiser.

    He passed all mechanical inspection, but then the inspector added at
    least *20 pounds* of air pressure to his rear tire!

  9. Well, maybe you just never noticed that aspect of your existence,
    thinking that *everybody* was into the same thing as you, and was
    *proud* of what they did secretly...
