I feel so dirty...

Lurked for a while soaking up info.
Got a spare rim a couple of months ago.
Conti Pro arrived last week.
Had it mounted this week.
Put it on the Wee Beastie this afternoon & went for a short spin...when i got back, my wife told me I was grinning like a kid who just found the hidden batch of brownies. :excited:

After 186 miles, I think I like it. It took a little more effort (not quite the right word) to initiate the turns, but I quickly forgot about it. Held the turns like I was on a rail & popped out of 'em quickly. It gave a softer ride on some of the roads where the expansion joints usually rattle the teeth. I'm looking forward to warmer weather & the salt getting off the roads so I can head up to the real twisties & see how it does there.

Murgie...can I have a number...please?

Thanks for the number...headed out the door to drop off an order for a couple of stickers (and add a few more miles on my way to the post office - I tend to take the scenic route). :yes:
