Tire or tyre? To tire is to be weary.

You had it right the first time, ritz. alexis is from the UK and American ways make him uncomfortable—probably couldn't find Chicago on a map. :hehehe

Well, Chicago is a small city, midwest, close to a small lake. Just trying to help. 🙂

Very helpful!

What do you have for rims? You'll need a three-inch rear rim. The three-spoke rims are three inch. An 18-inch front Rosso II isn't on the program as far as I've seen.

This tire is a spectacular upgrade on my son's Ninja 300..no Brick app to reference though.  Metzler Marathons are working well for me....

Laitch, old boy. I've even been there. Not saying I could find it on a map, mind.

I rest my case—if I have one.
