New tires are so round

Even though I put a BT56 back on the rear it is amazing how easy the bike turns now. That highway flat spot really screws up your cornering.

ALL tires are round...it's the profile that gets messed up.

I thought the exact same thing when i put on my new ones. If you dont do alot of twisties they flatten out quick. I wore my new ones in at the last bash and on the way home (400mi) they soon started to flatten out. Just an excuse to find MORE twisties around here!

Yeah, just got a new pair of tires myself, Pilot Powers. Huge difference in handling!:beerchug:

is exactly why I trailer the bike to these events now.. it is cheaper than buying tires/fuel and wear and tear on the bike.. tires cost me more than gas per mile....
