2 new shoes on the Road Glide. Brakes front and back also replaced.

They were a little used up I guess……..
In my defense I never got one indication they were gone.





Follow me for more tips on bike maintenance………..
42k on the factory set.

Did the rotors get scored Rick?

I think "shoes" = tires.

Geez Rick! Stan is right, you're wasting money replacing them now. Wait until next week.

It's dry here, but bitter cold. It's weird, the numbers aren't cold, in the 30s, but it feels a lot worse.
