Thor, I must have just missed you as I would have been there just after midday...I have never had anything but a 120 on the front of mine...but I can assure you the handling is just fine, no hint of wobbles, lack of traction...remember this size tire is far and away the prefered size for everything from the latest 1000 cc sportbikes to big sport-tourers...

Tire Update I left that shop at 11:30-11:45, when did you show up?...When I first rode up a couple of days previous they had said....wow....I havent seen one of those since they came out.....where did you get it....I just smiled and said Thanks. But I bet they were really spinning when two arrived in one day! That IS rare. I love the feeling of new shoes.....that Squeek-Bark when you downshift, So far my MEZ1 front and MEZ3 rear are wonderful....much more comfortable than the dunlop that had "bare patches" on the tread. That tire was very scary to corner on. But these new Metzlers are terrific...solid cornering and tight control. I was told never to accept tires that were not the exact size of the OE....so I am confused about the 120s....it seems as though a skinner tire would have DRASTIC effects on hard leans.....that lip isnt there when it should be....good bye traction. Have you had tire wobble? or even worse, tire de- rimming?
