    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

110/90 vs MM90 (yet another tire question)

Front tire specification in Suzuki manaul for my bike is 110/90-19, which I understand would be MN90-19.

I have an Elite 3 on rear.

The only 19inch front Elite 3 is an MM90-19 which would be a 100/90-19.

How much should I be concerned about that 10mm difference?

The narrower tire would tend to turn easier, almost like power steering, but the thing that would concern me would be the weight rating.
Make sure that the E3 will carry the amount of weight that is recommended for the bike.
Chances are that it will, because newer tires are rated a bit higher for a particular size compared to older tires.

I hope you enjoy the E3s. I had three sets of them on my Wing. The only reason I switched was that I got tired of the noise. Mostly the rear, but both tires would "sawtooth" the tread, making them sound like monster mudder tires whenever the bike was not strictly vertical.
