This means a new rear tyre - plus the garage can't get the rear disc off so that may mean a new rim / drilling out the old studs. Gave them my old burnt one but it could be useless due to the severe heat it was subjected to. Figured at this point that I may as well go all in and get a new front tyre to match since at the moment its the wrong damned size.
All in all, the price seems to have had a significant increase from my initial hope. This bike is trying to destroy my bank account I swear...
If, after this, more things go wrong. It may be the last straw
I sympathise with you....had the same sh!t with my bike. Thankfully, i'm turning a corner now and i'm enjoying the bike. Hopefully you will too, soon.
Also, you are not alone...spare a thought for Mr O'Reilly. He's had his carbs out more times than Jordan's Jugs!! :lol :lol :lol
