But this new one looks good and rides very nicely and has great reviews. My worry was that I would only see the review based on a sportbike, so I was worried about the looks also. But once on there, it looked great.
I ran the roadsmart tire from dunlop and it was great at first but about 6000 miles the center was smooth and developed a grove down the center like the tire was going to separate. it also got squirmy because the center got taller about 1/4 in over the sides and when you lean you feel a drop. i dont know if it was a defect or not. PM me as you get more miles to let me know how it responds.
