  1. Time for a new rear tire, car tire or bike tire ?

    I just noticed that blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah .. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. And blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...

    For those masochists who are still following this thread, even though they have no interest,and not inclined to reading, please skip this post and read the next. As I take a closer look at the roads here in sunny Florida, I see they are silk ribbons compared to the roads up north. Five miles...

    Please do not heckle the caged animals - unless you can provide proof of insurance.

    I have spend considerable time studying the "scientific method". In the case of the use of CT, there is one part of the SM that is missing, and that is experimentation, or (as in the case of rogue waves) documented real world experiences. If there is no disagreement about the other 80% (by your...

    "In use" is not the same as 'accepted as part of the Scientific method'. You are the one who said the SM should always require experimentation. Simulation programs are not replacement for light of day experimentation. Science (actual science - with computer modeling) - along with mathematics...

    The anecdotal evidence is overwhelming. Anecdotal is not scientific, but neither is logic and reasoning. Which is the more convincing scientific evidence? Anecdotal, million of miles. Strong circumstantial, but lacking scientific validity. ZERO anecdotal, zero scientific to the contrary. No...

    I hate to be the one to break it to you, but logic and reason are not Science. Science uses logic and reason, it also uses imagination. Logic and reason do not yield scientific results. Experimentation yields scientific results. If you need a lesson, I have the time. Logic and reason are...

    SWMBO and I help our son with three young boys under the age of 5. When I sneak out for a 2 hour ride I am missed. Hoping to do RAA, but just a dream at this point. Me, I just can not understand 10k on a rear MT (not you, but others). I have the same disbelief as you do.

    So, I have asked for this documentation many times, and many places. It seems now you will be providing it. I've waited a long time. I hope the wait was worth it.

    The scientific method has, in recent decades, allowed the use of computer models, with varying degrees of success. The Scientific method requires actual, real world, experimentation, when it is possible. Mathematics does not. When physicists resort to mathematics, they are not doing science. Do...
  11. Time for a new rear tire, car tire or bike tire ?

    The 2000 mile mark is just past the mid point - where I am starting to loose confidence in traction, especially in the rain. First two MC tires, less than 3500 miles to bare steel. With the CT I get traction like a brand new MCT, all the time. I was a commuter rider before retirement, no long...
  12. Time for a new rear tire, car tire or bike tire ?

    I do not have experience with the vast majority of dealers. Mine, five years gives me some knowledge. If you don't know a guy by then, you're in bad shape.

    Anyone who has read "fan magazines", on any subject, knows the writers give clearly biased information. Are they liars or just purveyors of misinformation? [This new XVTZ750 motorcycle requires a brick under the side stand to support the bike. So the writer says: "The proud owner of this modern...
  14. Time for a new rear tire, car tire or bike tire ?

    I was thinking I could ride like a little old lady. Seems to work for some. But you are right about not trusting magazine writers, except, it has nothing to do with tires. Pick a subject, and it is the same. Cameras, camping gear, cars, motorcycles, or tires. All the same to the ones who know...

    Greater Gainesville. We like it.
