Are there 300 tires out yet that can turn?

[hgwilson4]

I am interested in going with the 300 rear tire but everyone says that I will not be able to turn, I'm not a knee dragger and my bike is already lowered so Im not really leaning too much anyway ... Any advise on the 300? lease:

If you like the look do it. If it isnt seeing track whats it matter?
Bigrod is runing a fatty and never has a problem. Im sure he will chime in soon.

I've got a 360 and i ride with the pack. I'm sure they could leave me in the turns if they tried but no one has to wait. +1 if it isnt going to the track who cares?

Pirelli makes a 240 that leans. I'm not sure what it's called but that fancy ducati half sport/half cruiser (Whatever it's called) comes with one. We had one at the track a couple weeks ago and it held it's own pretty well on that big tire. I was impressed.

I'm 330 and LONG and can still make U turns in parking lots, take curves at almost any speed, weave in and out traffic aggressively! I've tried to get low, but my fairings scrap before my knee and that's fine with me! Turning ability is mostly affected by the stretch, than tire width!

yup im stretched 12 inches with a 300 and i ride just like last year with the factory wheel. i must admit i was scared at first but now im back to leading the pack and sometimes leaving them behind.

I've got the Myrtle West 300 kit. Haven't had any trouble turning. Granted I don't drag my knee, but people I ride with always cringe when I take a heavy turn, till I come back up and keep going. Just really depends on your confidence level in the grip of the tire. I'll have confidence until it puts me on my head. just my 2cents

Appreciate the advise ... I'm getting my $$$ together so hopefully I can come out next season with a new rear

Post some pics up not sure how far I wanna stretch it, was thinking 10 if I went with the 300 ...
