    Duct tape is like "The Force". It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.

    I found this interesting:

    CUPPING:
    Cupping, which is more accurately described as scalloping (see pictures, but we will use the more common term "cupping" here), is a natural wear pattern on motorcycle tires and it will always follow the tread pattern. It is not a sign that you have bad suspension parts. It merely shows that your tire is indeed gripping the road when you make turns (thank you for that Mr. Tire!). This cupping develops within the side wear bands of a leaned motorcycle.

    I learned a ton from the tire guys down at Loudon this year. There is so much more to learn...
