    Tires

    I'm a bit confused as most here are stating the original stockers were Metzelers. I have a 2003 T100 & it came with the BT45's I replaced them at 8,500 miles. The rear was worn fairly smooth. The front had some miles left on it but I decided to replace the set. I've been happy with their...

    Am I nuts? Help me please...

    +1 on the tire pressure warning. Nice fresh brand new tires can be slippery too. Take that first few miles REALLY easy. I've heard more than once about the back end of a brand new bike taking a slide just turning out onto the road from the dealership's driveway.
