Hey guys,
So on Thursday I was headed north on FL tpke going up to Live Oak, FL and had a blowout. After 6 hours got towed to a nearby hotel, spent the next 2 day looking for a tire with no luck, then a U-haul with a trailer to tow the bike home.
Received a new tire today and pulled the old one following the many threads on here, and as I was about to reinstall the tire, I ran my finger inside where the spline is to see how well lubricated it is, and found this.(see pics).
How worried should I be?
This is my first tire install (tire was changed on to the wheel at Honda) so just installing wheel.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
