    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    Thank you everyone for the suggestions of venue and for the hospitality!! I have made some plans for the location but I just need to wait for them to get back to me. If it falls through for one reason or another I will make sure to explore the options you have gave me. I really do appreciate the ideas and the willingness to help me out. Very awesome!

    I would love to come but Im on the other side of the Atlantic. If you are putting together a power point presentation or something, I would be very grateful to get a copy though.

    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    this is interesting, any discussion on how suspension settings affect or are affected by tire wear/size?

    I might be in depending on location.

    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    I haven't really thought about putting this an a power point just yet. If I have some time I will for sure!

    I will probably touch a bit on how suspension affects the tire as the tire is a part of suspension. I will go over how the size affects the geometry of the bike.

    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    One of our specialties is proper suspension builds for type of bike/rider/application (street, sport, track,..), and this has a significant affect on tire performace and wear (and vs/vs).
    I let Scer know that I could provide different bikes and suspension parts to help illustrate this, in context with his tire seminar.
    Waiting to see if SuperTune will host this, or if he would like my help with this.

    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    This is awesome! I'm so in! Also Scer, instead of a power point, why not just video tape it and put it on Youtube for peeps who can't attend?
    Respect and truth trump all!
    I don't get lost. I explore.

    Re: Tire Tech Seminar!

    If this goes down at Supertune, then I'm definitely in. It's close enough, and Mike's a great guy--he and his did a great job on my SV650...which so happen to include a rear tire

    Fist post updated with location.

    Sorry but since this is my first time and I am a bit camera shy, I ask it not be recorded. Trust me, this won't be the last time I put on the seminar.

    Do you mean storage and maintenance of the tires over a period of time like winter or other?

    Knowledge is worth nothing to you then? You could always ride P2P down 34 to get there. Not twisty enough for ya? I'm a friend of Scer's, think it's awesome he's offering to do this, and guarantee it'd be worth your time.....unless you're just toooooo fucking cool and already know it all.

    2.5 hours?? If you are close to Supertune its one hour away... and like CycleMonkey said, totally worth it!!

    I am sorry to hear this. I know it is far for some people but all my "stuff" will be with me in Loveland. I wanted to have the seminar on the weekend and later in the day so people could make it out. There are some real good twisties if you travel just west of I-25. Hopefully you can still make it out.

    Never too cool, and pretty damn ignorant when it comes to bikes in general, but especially tires. I need and want the learnin'...just a bit too high price (distance/time and gas) to pay right now...and I do indeed realize how lame that sounds to everyone. But I's on a budget =P.

    Taking a straight shot up 25 from Littleton is an hour and ten minutes. Round trip is right about 2.5 hours. If I were to try and make the ride "fun", I'd have to head northwest, dramatically increasing the time to get there. Now I've done 6 hour days on my bike...but I wouldn't exactly call those days "fun" (at least my ass wouldn't). =)

    Hey, I think it's friggin' awesome that you're doing this! I just won't be able to make that sort of drive. I'd love to meet a bunch of you local folks, as well as learn all I can about motorcycles. It's just a touch out of reach for me this time around.

    yes, we can go over winter storage tips.

    Also, I can cover what happened at daytona, why it happened and what you can do to prevent it.

    thanks for the bump wicky.
