An experienced rider I know just dropped his brand spanking bike not even a few feet out of his drive way.  Brand spanking new tire and cold day did him in.  0.4 or something on this speedo at drop time.  You got to admit that is pretty fun in a sick way.  Came out of it with a scuffed crank case, bell pan and nothing else.  Oh except a broken rib.

So take it easy.

But at 100miles, you are way way past " the take it easy, I on rding new tire excuse"  Grin

Acetone is a solvent.   Don't put solvents on your tires.     Just ride it.   I have some big 100mph sweepers on the way to work.   I just roll into them faster and faster and after a couple of miles, done, good to go.

You're good to go with that 100 miles.
