    How do you like them? I have a new, unmounted set ready to go on.

    Re: tires

    I just scrubbed em in today (chasing a 911 Turbo up upper Bear Creek!). They feel surprisingly different from the Roadsmarts I had. The bike feels like it wants to lay over and turn. Almost like they're more round with a tighter radius. But it stays nice and straight without any input. They're nice and stable until you try to turn, then they just lay over and pull you right around. I think I'm going to really like them. Plus, they don't even notice longitudinal lines or cracks. And they should last even longer than the 5k I got from the Roadsmarts.

    I still need to install them, but I got new tires for the Dakota. After the clutch, tires, and the shocks I'll need to put on it eventually it'll be like a new truck!
