    especially if is is a bit damp. can be a bit of a bugger when your front or rear slip a bit when hitting them. Most arn't to bad but some on the motorway are a bitch and a half.

    want to say tkns for the info on the tires. I hav had them for 2 weeks and have scrubbed 1000 k's into them they have been good to me so far, probly since I am riding grandma style relative to u guys.

    Now I just want a faster bike :P its a bit of a mission overtaking at open road speeds.

    yeh, i got a sport demon on the back of the GF (bike not girlfriend :P) yesterday. Got the day off school so i've been cruising the motorways mid-morning with little traffic on them (wierd that...) but all i can say is "OMG I can feel the road!!!" I've had to soften up my suspension after putting on the new tyre (thank god for adjustable suspension). The bike feels a lot more responsive, seems to take off faster, and just generally corners and feels better. NOW lets see who gets rid of the chicken strips first

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    just make sure you boil off the silicon slowly for the 1st 200k's ok u won't want to discover the traction limits of silicon too quickly aya.

    Being the Devil, i am sure u are on quite good terms with THE demon. should u ever need to wip its ass in line.

    Well had them on for 100km or so, and am about 1cm from the edge of them. Wow what a huge improvement in grip and feel (compared to my old shitty tyres). Has made me feel so much more relaxed and confident on the bike.
