I figure there are some motorcycle guys/gals on CP, so I thought we could have a place to talk all things Motorcycles.

Tire Mount and Balance Prices (as of 10/29/16)

Prices based on if you remove the wheels yourself and bring the wheels and new tires with you:

Cycle Gear - $35 per wheel if you buy tires from them. $58 per wheel if you buy tires elsewhere
Rawhide - $65 per wheel (assuming it would be the same at other HD dealers. they book it at 1/2 hr per wheel)
C R Cycle Tires (DeSoto) - $30 per wheel

Cheapest I've found my Michelin Commander II's. Seem like they have good prices on other brands too.

Called the throttle zone; clutch control, with gas and feathering the rear brakes keeps torque on the tires at slow speeds, and control through tight turns. Been a few years but I used to be pretty good in those "rodeos".

Always impressive to watch...I don't know about now, but when I got my License you had to do figure eights both directions in a square.

Wherever you look is where you go...I like watching his head movement too..

yep.

you should see the looks I get from people when I'm rolling up to a bike night or anywhere that parking is full and an open spot comes available on the opposite side of the road/lane/parking area.. I can whip my bike 180 etc in such a tight area; look where I'm going, upright seating position, let the bike lean, throttle/clutch/rear brake etc.

we have a guy we ride with that has a lot of d-bag qualities about him. He constantly races from light to light. revs his ****ing bike for no reason at stop lights. constantly checking himself in his mirrors to see how he looks etc. We roll up to a watering hole and I see a spot where all 4 of our bikes could go - I roll up, whip my bike around and back it in. The d-bag, rolled down a few more spots and parked. when he came back to us, he was like "Man...how the hell did you do that. there was no way i was trying that". My brother just laughed and said "shit...he does that crap all that time to me". my brother rides a Night Train with drag bars, so his overall position is a little different than mine. He's a little shorter too, so his legs are extended a bit more than mine are as well.

Same technique I used to us to make a u-turn on a narrow road on my sport bike. Takes some practice to get the feel for it but it’s a lot faster and easier than duck walking your bike through a multipoint turn just to get spun around.

Next time you're riding with d-bag pull up next to him at a stop light and wait. Just before the light turns green reach over and turn his bike off then ride away laughing.
We used to do that to each other all the time, quickly learned to roll up to a stop light in neutral so you could cover you keys with one hand and kill switch with the other.

Sure, but there's a big difference between doing that on a sport bike and an 800lb+ Road King.
