2001 Tiger with original tires....OMG!

[D-Fuzz]

I took the front wheel off my Tiger today.  I figured I'd better at least put a new tube in until I get around to buying a new set of tires.  I pulled out the old tube and it was stamped "1595", which I would take as 15th week/ 1995.  Good thing I hadn't ridden too far on it.  The rear tire has been replaced since the bike was new (2001 date), I am just wondering what the chances are that a new tube was installed with the tire.  It is still at least a 10 year old tube, so it will need replacing as well.  That will be tomorrow's job.

I bought the tires but have not bought the tubes yet.  Don't know why I didn't buy them at the same time but hey, still too much snow on the ground to do anything anyway.

Next time I stop at the dealerships I will pick them up.  Hoping they have some Micheline's in stock...
