Whats up guys I’m new to this forum and the area. I just moved up here from the 845 (Poughkeepsie/ wappingers falls area)

I moved up here for work. I’m in the Army and I manage the new AT&T store in Malta off of exit 12 on 87.

I ride an 06 Buell XB12R Firebolt. I’m down to ride and oh if you guys know where I can find a good shop so I can get a new front tire and brakes I’d appreciate it.

I also drive a 2003 SVT FOCUS

As for the goat picture, my friend added that caption haha.  
Hopefully I’ll be seeing you guys around here.

Here’s some pics of my Firebolt.

Yea it’s massive, but it gets rid of wheel flex that you can get from standard smaller discs

I think you meant how the larger single disk design facilitates how the rotor is mounted on the wheel, which helps minimize wheel flex.
