What motorcycle(s) do you ride

I love your bike

Thanks a ton, still a lot I want to do but it's been a blast.

That's so cool

Thanks!

I have a customer with an XR1200 Harley that he put aggressive dual sport tires on, he takes that thing EVERYWHERE. Huge respect for you!

Yea it's a lot of fun. I've spun the rear tire/tube in the wheel and ripped the valve stem off twice now, any ideas? I thought rim lock, but have been told it'll be impossible to balance.

It's a 3 inch wide rear wheel? A bead lock might be an option, generally they weigh about 3 1/2 ounces, so it might be a challenge to balance, depending on where it wants weight in the first place. Finding a 3 incher might take a little effort as well, most manufacturers only go to 2.5. The only other real option would be to run higher pressures, which would compromise traction a bit, or go old school and use short sheet metal screws into the beads like drag guys do with car slicks.
