so the stingy bastard that lives inside me decided to save 300 ronts and fit my own tires......mmmmmm what fun that was.

Question:
i put the rear knobblie on the wrong way round. does it really matter, there does not seem to be any change in pattern.
i did a quick search and on advrider they recon it makes no difference and one dude said he never checked to see what direction it is meant to be. he recons its just some EU bollocks.


im leaving today for a 4 day trip so please can some one let me know asap.

then to make my day and personality even more pleasant i knicked the tube on the front tire and now i have to get that replaced.

so to save 300 ronts i probably have to spend 380 ronts! dumbass!
