That's a pretty impressive contact patch ever in the steep leans. 40 psi, I think, is too hard and less would even yield a larger contact patch.

That's Dag's video.  He did another one showing a m/c tire.

Yes,
Less psi = larger contact patch.
Higher psi = greater stability at high speeds (relative to psi), and still greater contact patch than a MC tire.

I will say that this is the best video showing the contact patch that I have seen, and I know I have not seen them all. In agressive cornering, my rear tire is glued to the pavement. I run 38psi.

The only neg for me is a little slower countersteer response. Otherwise, I love my Good Year TT.

Don't see going back.
