Some Wheel TLC Done

Did the tyre paint lettering and cleaned the wheels. Took way longer than expected! Rest of the bike will have to wait until tomorrow.....ran out of elbow grease!

Have always loved the front rotor design. Super cool!

correct me if I'm wrong, but to me the direction of the treads on the front tyre look wrong. was it mounted correctly with the direction of travel?. the rear looks right too me but the front looks backwards.
Not criticising but it just looks wrong to me and if it is, Id rather let you know than a misshap in wet weather. please check and let me know

  Karl Janzik, Hi Karl! Thanks, yes, it does look weird. here's another pic, same wheel, same tyre where you can see the direction. It is on the correct way. Thanks for your concern though.

Thats good. just looked weird at the time. I actually stayed awake worrying about it last night. once again not being a smart ass, just concerned.
I had a tyre fitted backwards once when I took the wheels in, and another they didn't balance, just because they didn't have the right tools and didn't tell me, I could feel it at speed though and promptly got it sorted. saying that never been back to that mechanic again

  Karl Janzik, Lol. I did not go to work on my Buell when you posted your comment. I also got worried and started to Google vids and pics of the Mitas tyres. saw then that the front tyre is like it should be
