I could feel it slipping a bit on hard acceleration. Plus I figured the guy that had it before abused it a bit (like I said, liked to clutch up wheelies and other hooligan stuff) so, I just thought it was a good idea. Trying to go to VIR next month for the first time and wanted the bike to be in top shape.

it is against the law to have them. When I got my class A. That is what i had to learn. I was pretty sure that they dont even sell retreaded tires for trucks.

holy shat!

Dude was probably pegged in 6th gear. Top speed is what? 160? To move a 4k lbs truck 360 degrees, thats some serious force.

Crazy. I'm guessing he wasn't geared? (not that it really matters at that speed and impact)
