Tire pressure tire pressure tire pressure tire pressure

I for one am not gonna blow him....but I when he does anything to my bike I will be thankful for what he did and check all my other shit .....
Toe your a good dude and quite a few folks out here wouldn't be riding if it weren't for you.... and thanks for the valve adjustment the bike is running a lot better than it did before....now about those head bearings................

 

ANYONE who thinks i am blaming TOE CUTTER for anything (other than being a reckless golf cart driver after dark) didn't see the deeper question here. The discussion is about shops in general, not Toe's shop.

When i worked as a service manager ( briefly !!!!) i asked all the techs to always check tyre pressures before releasing the bike as "customer service"; hell, it takes only a minute. A few times the rider said his bike felt better, and that was reward enougth for the time it took.

You aware riders who don't want anyone jacking about with your pressures are NOT what i'm thinking about here; instead, it's the guy who's riding on seriously, dangerously underinflated tyres maybe 10 psi or more low.

A brief test ride( shop should be insured) can reveal many problems to a tech that the bike's owner is unaware of, and lead to better safety for the rider as well as higher profits to the shop.

 

Well, there goes your place in the queue to give the Toe a blow.

 

maybe you kinda missed it squirrel...its not a shop...its a garage at his house that he drinks beer and parks his bikes in..as well as an old kick ass chevy..... and he helps people with their bikes that's it
"
TOE is just about the last man on this site i'd dare criticize because his generosity to other riders and his comprehensive knowledge of our bikes, of all generations, is legendary, and he has my total respect....however."

sounds like a criticism to me and you finish with

"in this case it was a simple detail that was overlooked.

 

1.This is Cunda's issue. Every rider should check out their bike. He had a Duh moment and that he should have checked the pressure
2. Not kissing Toe's ass for any amount of money .. Never know where it has been.
3. If we get too far into this, people will stop helping fellow VFRW's
4. I have never ever once had a shop car or bike set my tire pressure correct. I have always brought my Bike / car home and checked my pressure with a dial guage and set my pressure.

Cunda also knows we all like him here. So does Toe.

Thanks to Toe for helping a feller out ... Thanks pal

 

...and with that the Krispy one moves to the head of the queue but not before reading and making a small attempt to understand what is being discussed.

 

the whole part about not knowing were his butt has been...I do its been in northern sacramento for 40 years ....uke: I would not touch it for all the rum in the caribbean

 

uh...it was a typo.......add a not

 

I was just thinkin....I had my bike over at TOES and the tire pressure was a little low.... I wonder if there is a correlation between the two? I bet its that rascally yellow lab ..she did learn how to escape the fence and was a little pissed that she got caught.....
