Thanks again for the great eyes. I had the tire remounted today. They
still had the sale in the computer, so they charged me only for the
new weights needed for balancing.

Pretty respectable, for a Suzuki/Yamaha dealer.

They should have paid for the whole thing. I guess you can't expect
that since they are the "competition".

Well, the damn tire's been on the bike for about two years. A friend
told me the Suzuki drive shaft, on the bike so equipped, was on the
left side of the bike. The Guzzi's is on the right. If the original
mechanic looked at the brake and gears to make his determination, then
I could see the confusion. They didn't have Guzzi manuals as they did
no Guzzi service. (Which was probably why they sold Guzzis for only a
year or so.)

Of course, the mechanic could have just looked at the previous tire.
But then again, maybe he was *real* bright and thought that one was
mounted backwards.

Bottom line - I should have checked. I thought ten bucks was a pretty
good deal, as I had no reciept or anything.

Thunder, by looking at the picture of the rear of my bike, noticed
that the tire was mounted incorrectly. I had it remounted, after
removing the wheel, 'cause the Suzuki place won't take the rear wheel
off a Guzzi. Don't ask me why, they just won't touch them.

Unfortunately, John ran into the same kid that used to work at Walmart,
remember the one who set up Harry's bicycle for him? Now he works at a
motorcycle shop mounting tires...;)

Dad loves his family, and he was a soldier. He wanted us all to remember

You sure have a strange way of expressing your grief.
BTW, now that your dad is dead, do you plan to get a real job?
