Is it just me or do both of those 550s have the front tire direction of rotation reversed?

I've been debating for days and days and I still can't decide!

Think of which bike you would most like to have in your garage.

It's a universal tyre that can be fitted on either wheel. The important factor is following the directional markings on the side wall. Although both wheels turn in the same direction, the forces (acceleration on rear and braking on the front) dictate which way round the tyre must be fitted.

Cangrats Mr Moore, well deserved but I was shocked at such wide spread voting.

I thought the results would have been much closer as all bikes were a credit to their builders.

Appears the Cafe' bikes won out on the stockers.

Heck, I would be proud just to stand next to any of them.

Don't know but some of the race guys reverse the direction especially if they don't like it mounted properly. Some say certain tires were better backwards.

Flying J · « **Reply #41 on:** June 30, 2013, 07:39:03 PM »

Hey, thanks guys. Those were all very beautiful bike and it's an honor to be nominated and win. Thanks to all those who voted for mine.

Some people don't wear the recommended clothing when riding their bikes, it's their choice.

Congrats Flying J. Truly a turnaround from the original state. Well thought out and executed. Congrats to the nominees too. All fantastic bikes. I woul literally drool to have any of those stop by my house.

Tintop · « **Reply #45 on:** July 01, 2013, 06:21:23 AM »

Congrats ffj, should take it to Pomoma.

Flying J · « **Reply #46 on:** July 01, 2013, 07:45:30 AM »

I plan to take it to Pomona. I had it in a show yesterday and took second. At least this time I lost to another cafe racer and not a trail 70.

some very nice bikes were there. I'll post pics in the inspiration gallery when I get home.

Fairplex - Grand National Roadster Show. It's were ffj and I meet up when I showed my 550. Got a 2nd in the Vintage Sport Bike class, maybe he'll do better.
