New front tire

An SMBC member came over for some help putting new rubber on his front wheel. As long as all the tools were out I did the same for the GS. The TKC-80 I removed lasted 8,814 miles. I could have likley pushed it another 1,000 miles as I did with my last TKC-80, but the ride started getting a bit rough.
