Ain't being a smartass whatsoever, but my tires got noticeably smoother when I installed Racetech springs and gold valve emulators in the front forks. The good part is they'll outlast several tires, and this on the same scoot you have but 2 years older.

Commander 2s are nice but I get the most miles on Dunlap E3s.

White wall or black wall? Do you care about mileage?
