Hello

I moved to the Darkside yesterday. 2011 HD Ultra Classic and a Dunlop SP5000 195/60/16 tire at 34psi. 25 miles on it so far and loving it.

I started at 30psi and it felt "different". I upped it to 34 and I can almost not even tell the difference between a MT and this tire. I am excited.

I am still leery in the curves, however...I guess because of all the naysayers out there and the scare tactics. Slow and careful until I am confortable fully with it. The wifde will not be on the bike with me until I am fully confident.

Congrats and welcome. Enjoy the smooth and better ride. Get rid of the molding before scratching pipe and boards.
Robert.

I was the same in the curves as you at 1st, now I don't even think about it anymore. Unless it's raining, then I think of how much better it is. thumbup
