Just installed the car tire today. Feels different but not in a bad way. Just have to get used to it. A bit more input to get it to lean into a turn. Exited about the miles I'll get out of it. Installed a Federal 595 size 205/50-17.

 

Update on Car tire after 2000 miles. Now I see no difference between the car tire and the MT. As you can see, I ride this bike hard and there is no sign of the tire riding on the sidewall. Rode it on wet roads a few times and felt no difference on riding. I see no visible wear as compared to a MT at 2000 miles of riding. I put about 600 miles a week so I'll be posting regularly. I ride in the San Diego, CA area. Talk to you later

 

Thanks for giving us the update. Please do more in the future! Interesting to see your pegs in that condition, you do like to lean this thing out!

 

I just got this tire today and my bike is a 2012 fat boy , just looking at this tire and comparing to my old one on the bike it looks pretty doubtful it’s gonna fit. Can you please confirm this is the same tire or not. It appears this tire will rub my belt at the very least.

I got it on!!!! Wasn’t to bad to install.

Feels pretty good , it’s gonna take a few rides to get use to the edges of the tire in turns but Otho g major to worry about just alittle resistance as you go on the edge of the tire. As of now I have no plans to ever go back with a bike tire
