28 degrees and first ride of yr on darkside....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well I guess I couldn't wait any longer had to ride after all the mods. Only have 35 miles on the mets and the GY/TT but what a difference. I honestly do not really see any big deal on the tire yet as far as not much countersteering, slow turning, and rreally didn't notice it following the highway tracks. Biggest issue was getting to the hard pavement from the house about 200 yrds of slush but once on dry pavement, WOW!!!.

Scar mod was quite noticeable as was the progressives shocks and metz. Only thing I need to do is possibly adjust the A/F slightly just a couple pops on decel. Oh and ran the shocks on 3 setting at 38 psi. Can't wait to put lots more miles on this set up. Thanks to all the help from the members on getting me thru all the winter mods. Lots of gratification doing your own work. Ride safe all. Oh and if you can't tell I think the DARKSIDE rocks.

Hey Twin,
I just don't feel all the issues others have brought up about this mod. It rides great and even at 5 mph don't really feel any issue. What I really like is how it sets you back up coming out of the turns at highway speeds. Really guess I must be different some how because I feel there is no really gettting used to the new feling because I honestly don't feel there is much IMHO. Anyway glad I tried it and I like it, lol. Don't think I'll even mess with the psi of 30 it rides so smooth. Ride safe.

Hey Partimer, it only gets better from here. Enjoy and welcome. ....... Get in line ..... Twin will be serving cookies


See you out there
Smokey

That Psi should have read 38 and not 30. surprised no one started saying it was way to low. Took it out again today and if it continues to feel this good can only imagine after there are alot more miles on it.
