Stone, you dont have to get a Metz, you can get a Dunlop, Avon, whatever tire you want brother. I talked to Tab today at DB and he said that 5 or 6 guys that I had talked to, called an placed orders today. I told him that business is likely to BOOM!! with all the guys on here that want a Quality WW. Every Size too, 21's, 18's, etc.

Hahahaha nahhhhhh, east never beats the west hahaha
not true bobber, got the receipt for everyone to see. Lol paid over $200 for a crap vee, and its crap. Wouldnt give $50 for the damn vee. 2-tone whitewall, uneven ww, oil spots that will bleed through. Have to add shoe polish to keep it white. Ask stone about oil spots. Paid $298 to my door for a 120/70/21 ww metz. Some peeps on here dont have to believe me, thats fine, but i got proof and pics.
Besides, my country a** aint payin $450 for a tire. Seems like us east coast boys may have one up on yall, huh bobber lol j/k

delete
i understand what country is saying they deleted my swing arm bag post about hog deluxe which should have never happened it was because he was a sponsor and was loosing money. If the facts are true then a post should stand if your a sponsor and you screw up big time you got to pay the price. I have heard about the metz avon and so on with 21 inch white walls installed months ago. i believe i put up a post about it. I have not really looked at my vee yet but if it turns out to be crap ill order one from the guy country got his from I also complained about the over inflated prices on the vee that some sellers were sticking it to us i hope they are all stuck with them now that they loaded up to make another killing. I take country's word about the metz if he said its good that's good enough for me

Thanks for the info Stone.
I put the bike on the jack to get the front wheel off the ground and then turn the nipples 1/8-1/4 turn tightening one at a time. Then if they are still loose go another 1/8-1/4 turn. Mine were a little over 1/8 of a turn loose. You dont want to go to far or the wheel will get out of round. They make a torque wrench for this but this is how we have always done our moto cross bikes. No problems.

That stash of Vee Rubber 120/70/21 WW tires I found for $205.00 shipped doesn't sound so good now. Looks like everyone is going to have to start selling them at blem prices. That's gotta suck but I am sure there are still people that will buy them if they just are not that picky or don't mind using shoe polish.
