Mine is not run flat. The sidewalls are nice and soft so it gives a good patch of rubber in corners.
I guessing the run flat would be a harder tire.
Mine is very close to the size of the MC tire. Maybe 3/4" taller.
Made the speedo read the same as the GPS.

I also agree, I switched to a run-flat because I travel around the country every summer on the bike. This year I will be returning to Upstate NY from Ocala Fl. Flat tires on a road trip are a "B". A few years ago I came out of work to get on my 12 Wing and had a flat. I was able to ride home on zero pressure. I like the security while on a trip. I thought the tire would be hot after 10 miles on zero pressure but it seemed normal. My tire had a valve stem failure. I installed a new metal one and the tire performed normally for many miles after.

bike tire 2.jpg I have about 700 miles on this tire now. I am very pleased. It handles great, it is good in the rain and it is rock solid from 0-100mph. I really liked my Michelin and so far this tire is just as good. I have tried other DS tires and this one is much better than all except the Michelin. Running 30PSI and it feels good. About to head for upstate NY from Ocala. Should have around 3k additional miles when I return. It is a Yokohama Avid Envigor Run Flat.

I apologize if I missed it but is it a 60 series, 55 or something else?
