awww man you just depreciated the resale value of your bike by 75% easily, you should sell it to someone fast and buy a new one while its still semi re-sellable.....

Well why don't you just go ahead and let it sit in the sun for an hour while your at it! Gosh there's nothing then guys that ruin their rides by riding them. Next thing you know you'll be ruining the oil and wearing out the tires. Wreckless if you ask me.... Some people don't deserve Harley's...

I think my tires are shot they have chicken strips on them . Is that bad? Should I get them balanced or let some air out?
