new darksider
Hello all,
I just switched to the darkside with a GYTT, so far im liking it and will probably stay with it depending on how the tire feels after it gets broke in. Im running 40psi right now dont know if i ll change it or not seems to ride pretty good the way it is. Anyways just wanted to say HI, I do have a video of giving my stock dunny a proper burial if anyone is interested in seeing it.

I believe you would like it better with 34-36 psi. I started with 45. Didnt like the handling at all. After reading this site alot I realized the pressure had to come down. So now Im at 34 and I think the tire rides perfectly now.
Good goin.
Good goin.

40 psi still feels pretty good but i ll drop to 34-36 and see what it feels like but i would like to put a few more miles on the bike first

Do we know eachother??? Who do you work for. I was gonna make a bubble head coment earlier but I felt it was too soon to be calling names. If you do know me you would not take it to heart. PM me with your info. Would love to get in a ride with a fellow Darksider.
Peace My borther.

Ok Texans, I'll organize a ride to the 3 Sisters this Spring. We will visit the Texas Motorcycle Museum along the way. Good food there.

Holy Cow! How did you even breath in the garage? Love the guy laughing at you. Notice he didn't move anywhere near the garage to film the video. I thought I was nuts, but you take the cake. Did the neighbors hear you?
