    Had a big date the other month. (A woman) I opened up some old condoms I had in my wallet. They’d turned to dust. 

    I sprinkled them on and went to work. 

    that would be like fine sandpaper......new meaning to the term " having a grind ".

    Just turn the tyre around 180 deg so that the offset is on the other side??? this will also help with those bikes that are heavier/wider  on one side and may eliminate your having to lean the other way while riding your lop sided harley????

    There ya go! two problems solved at the same time. Fucking brilliant ???
    The other solution i found is to put your wallet in the opposite pocket to correct the lean??? It makes your arse 1 inch higher on that side.!!

    Long story but the groover didnt fix it. The near new Michelin is in the shed, replaced with a Pirelli Night Dragon. My heavens the Pirelli out handles the Michy. Chicken strips are 2-3mm wide and its only been ridden two-up.

    Well i'll be stuffed my Metzler cruizetec has just done this also i will put up a pic soon as it as my front tyre has worn mainly on the right side, this is after approx. 9000k's which is for me is not too bad, the rear tyre went on about 1000ks before the front and still has about 2000k's left in it. I am pleased with the performance of the Cruizetec's and the have lasted longer than the HD Michelin scorcers and grip and perform way better also, I am going to try another front as it may be just a one off
