Unofficial Start of the Motorcycle Riding Season


One of the things I never liked as a motorcycle mechanic, was changing tires or doing tube repairs. In my personal opinion, even with the proper tire equipment, changing tires was the worst job in the shop. If I am not mistaken, the last tire I've ever changed was in the year 1987 when I replaced the rear tire and the clutch plates on a 1987 Honda Gold Wing 1200. 

This coming weekend is the unofficial start of this year motorcycle riding season. The biggest and most popular vintage motorcycle event in the east coast, the Gathering of the Norton, is this Sunday in New Jersey. My bike is ready; new rear tire and oil and filter has been changed. I am looking forward to attending this motorcycle vintage event!
