I'm officially a darksider

Got the GYTT 205/55/16 on the VTX after much sweat, a little blood, and then a trip to a local shop to get the other 1/2 of that ^%&*#$^*#@ tire off and get the ct mounted. Only road about 1/2 mile so far and it's different but not bad different, just different.

I think I'm gonna like it.

The /55 fit on without any troubles (removed dust seal and brake mount to get it in) and I wish I went for a /65 but oh well.

After a 15 mile ride at 42psi I'm going to try lowering the pressure to about 35.

It's definitely different but not anywhere near as bad as you might think. I actually surprised at how little it changed the ride.

I scraped both pegs so I know it's all good Smile
