do you know how much sleep the average kid gets a night their first year with roomates????
one day i came in to work...late as usual...stoned and happy....my boss says some guy crashed on his way home from getting a tire here....could you go check the tire pressure on the tire he brought in?...i went in back saw that it still had 65 psi...ppsssssssssssssssss 36 p.s.i now..took it up front...said "it was fine" and went back to work....that is how shops work when they hire guys for 8-11 dollers an hour to save money and cut overhead.. ......never take your car or bike to a budget place or YOU ARE THE IDIOT....9disclaimer edit 8-11 is okay in some staes where the econemy is equaled out it is not enough to attract high quality experienced motorcycle mechanics in most areas is all i meant

I think I'd rather have the guy double check with me than taking a guess and finding out when I get back there that the tire is on the wrong way. The guy probably sees enough bikes and wheels that one tends to run into the other by the end of the day.
I wouldn't be worried about it if we hadn't talked about the bike for a half hour the day before.
