HellFire is Going Darkside !!!

28psi was too low, 30psi felt very nice and will probably to back to it, 32 sits better and the tire doesn't "bulge" much. I was out scraping the pegs on purpose to see just how far over the tire would touch the ground and even with the floor boards bent up at 45 degrees the tire never used all the tread.

New tires are greasy of course, I launched with the intention of raising the front wheel and the tire slipped one revolution ... it wiped the "new" off and stood straight up.

I LOVE this tire ... I've been mean to it and the little "nubbies" are still there! I don't think I could wear this thing out if I tried.

I just noticed that my white cat has black grease down his back ... his lack of fear gets him in trouble and dirty. When I came home with the mounted tire, he was sitting under the rear fender while it was on the center stand and jack. He's the only pet I've seen that will ride on a lawn mower taking a nap. Silly animal

I'll probably just put the other back on when the Metz gets worn down a bit.
