Thanks, KPM. Looks like nothing will happen with tires til I get back from down south. The starter was pronounced dead and the armiture was sent out for rewind. Today the B12 will be shown at another vintage snowmobile show/ride on the trailer, then go into storage for awhile. It has been doing a few miles on the trailer. It has been an attention getter at our show. Some day I'll return it to Jeff. This season is about shot. By the time Jeff gets it back, everyone will have seen it already!!!!!!!! He'll get comments like "Oh, is that BIGDAVE's?" Actually, it is shown under Jeff's name and only a few people know that I occasionally call it mine! BIGDAVE
