Weather cooporated today so had time to get the PR4's mounted.
Okay, so any new tires will always feel better then the old ones that have cupping and squared off sides. At 8k miles I could have waited another 1000+ mi before changing. But since the weather & temps were agreeable thought I would go ahead to make the switch now before "winter" sets in here in NC.
The Michy's definatively feel smoother and softer than the Dunlops. Much better ride quality and a BIG improvement in handling. The front end feels mucher lighter and willing to turn and hold a line.
So far I'm really happy getting the PR4's instead of another set of OEM's.
Making plans to ride down to Daytona in March for bike week fun!

Wow, the title of the post to me reads...'NO BETTER' then the originals...that is what I got out of it...but when I read the post it's obvious your sentiments are exactly opposite!

Anyway, couldn't agree more. Your assessment is EXACTLY what I thought the moment I started riding the bike with those tires.
