first ride

Brewsky,I noticed that you told the op that the old Nitto tires have some value.

I had an old Nitto thin whitewall sitting around for about 6 years that I thought was junk.

I cleaned it up and put it on ebay expecting to get possibly $10 for it. It went for $70!

Thanks for that tip! Mike

Live and learn!
I did throw mine away............ and later saw what they were selling for on ebay!
I would never ride on tires that old, but for restoration purists and show only bikes they must be in demand.
I also threw away a perfect set of original 1970 CL 450 pipes some years back.
