Boring motorcycle repair post

Hrm. Will probably total about $4-500 for bike stuff. I was hoping for something more towards $400, but, there's nothing majorly wrong with it that I didn't expect, which is great.

My brakes are fine for the time being. The pricey parts are the chassis service/inspection itself, and the new tires + mounting. The tread on my rear tire is not safe, and possibly not even legal. Eep. Kinda expected that, since I had it lock and fishtail on me once or twice last year, which is a little scary. They changed my oil, replaced a signal light, and they're going to make some adjustments on my exhaust, grips, and steering head bearings.

Good thing I get paid this week!

Yay for safe bikes!

Do you know how much just the tire replacement would be?

My dumb ol' bike won't start reliably. :(
