Yea a 130 is as wide as you should go. That is a whole lot of bike for that skinny rubber. I think the wiggles are just from the flimsy tube swingarm. Mine is not real confidence inspiring when leaned deep. But now I'm used to a sport bike so I'm also a bit jaded. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

Allen - at one point someone had stuck a tire on it that was one or two sizes too wide - it hit the swing arm and caused a serious wiggle in corners. Wouldn't recommend it. Paul - Moody's is a Maine icon - hence the photo :-) Ironically, despite the hype I have not always been impressed when I've gone there. However, the Frappes are awesome!
