Now, I just have to figure out how to get the cool yellow and red racing stripes on my tires and I'll be all set.

If you're going to lean right enough to get rid of that yellow one I demand video.grayta_imp said:LOL I really need to lean more to the right and take care of that.

Getting to the edge on a stock tire is not that difficult
But I'm finding getting to the edge on a wider PR3 nearly impossible.

There are some S curves by my house that will do it-unless the pegs scrape first. I could get the Bonneville all the way to the edge of the tire. Haven't leaned the CB that far over yet.

Take your time metal, it will come. Remember I live where there is nothing but curves, and started my 50 th year of street riding last Monday.

Ferret dropped that pic on us before. He took his peg feelers off because he said they were ugly, but in reality they probably just got in the way. Probably has a pair of Tourmaster pants with worn out knee sliders somewhere. Clearly a CB hooligan

I can vouch for that. I was scrubbing in the sidewalls on my new PR3 rear last weekend. I go to the airport where there is a large expanse of uncluttered pavement and just turn circles as tight as possible in each direction. I was scraping the feelers on both sides, so I thought I was doing a good job. But when I was done, a glance at the rear tire showed about a 1/2" strip of unmolested tread on each side.

:rofl: @ "Tourmaster pants with worn out knee sliders" That IS the definition of "CB1100 Hooligan"

Flyn..go to DMV and tell them you lost your plate and get another. Then put the black lic plate frame around it like Chip Beck did. it will look great!

I was thinking "low profile" doing it the other way but I need to add some loctite anyway so I might flip mine like that. Good idea.

Ever since I discovered that someone ran into my license plate a few months ago (didn't touch any other part of the bike), I've been thinking about swapping it for a personalized plate. I just haven't made up my mind what to put on it :huh:The ferret_imp said:

I tried it both ways and opted for the conventional, but I may switch it to the acorns on top method. The fact that we're even noticing this sort of thing is semi-pathetic. :beerchug:
