...not fond of gassing up in the states at all...with an RV.....I never did get a fill up...the gas stations would only accept $100 dollars worth...cash or credit....
Thanks Wayne..
...talked with a few dealers and they seem confused since the size never came up...so they recommended 5.05 - 5.10 17.....went back online to Fortnine and they have Michelin and a listing in a group that the 140 falls into...may just order a Michelin and see how it goes...only...

LOL...yep...she's a beast to put on the centre stand....my 1st time I said "WTF!!!"...then I heard about the board under the rear wheel trick..that helps, but I don't think I would always carry a board.....would hate to try putting it up alone when she is loaded down......you're new Motech foot...
..thanks for the the info on install >>>made a list from it to follow....looks like a real pita for sure...just for an air filter...looks like your filter needed changing but sure did a good job for the kilometers/time it was there.
...I guess tank removal was required..?...it's a task I have to tackle in the spring...not looking forward to it ...any tips? was this the first air filter change ? and how bad did the air filter look ....? ...Mileage?
