I probably should have a tire bank and if I had a lift and a changer, no doubt some would be stacked up in the corner.
Mrs Ferret, please note that there is 193 days, 12 hours and 43 minutes (at time of posting) to Christmas.
Cheers

My buddy Lee, who came to the rally with me on his RC51 runs a small shop in his garage at home. He was a motorcycle mechanic since he was a young kid, a Honda MC mechanic for 20 years and a Honda car mechanic for 10 before he semi-retired. He's got a nice No-Mar tire changer. I keep my tire bank at his place. Nice to have a pal who rides and wrenches

"tire bank" Do remember that tires have expiration dates.
I can sympathize with dealerships. Who wants to maintain an expensive inventory when customers are buying from the internet and UPS gets it the next day?

For my Ural I have one full shelf in the garage of bits and pieces, full tool kit on bike plus spare cables, nuts and bolts, zip ties, wire, air filter, oil, flashlight and repair manual.If I'm going out f town I take more. Remember - the bike comes with a spare for a reason.
