    soooooo, you go to the "dark side" (aka car tires that are not built to lean over) because the tires are cheaper & they last longer ?? I think, I would try another hobby where my moneys not such a issue..............just sayin'

    Someone once also said.. "man was not meant to fly"

    Keep living in a box, you'll never enjoy new experiences.

    So true. I eventually learned to climb out of the box that I was in.

    The bike leaned fine and seemed to snap upright faster leaving corners. My main issue was the "squishy" feeling. The concept was sound and had I experimented with a better tire I most likely would still be running one. I'll revisit the issue next rear tire although I must say the 888's I'm running feel awesome.
