  they are a good tire. I'm using an Avid Ascend 195/60 now and I like it even better.

Why did you downsize to a 195, meathead?

Just trying different tires.

Narrower tire usually = less countersteer.

not that the 205 was all that hard, but this one seems effortless.

You got "sparklers" on your control pegs! I want some but I'm afraid I'll set the mountain on fire.
Glad you're likin' the Yoko that or the Khumo is prob my next one after I burn up these last 2 Raptors.

Yeah, I went the other way with the Wing jus' because everybody kept sayin' the 205 wouldn't fit (so I stuffed it in there anyway, haha).
I won't lie, it's a bear at slow speed, but it sure is hooked up in the twisties!

Ride safe fellas!

Mr. Whiskey, I burnt up 4 Raptor's before this Yoko...I loved them but think I like the Yoko better...none of the slow speed problems I had with the Raptor...

[Mr Whiskey]

Yeah, I knew you got into the Raptors. Will be interested in further reports on the Yoko as it wears. Less slow speed issue sure is nice
Don't think I can stuff the 205/60 on the Wing though. I'm awful close at 205/55. I see TireRack's got it in 205/55 V rated for less that a yard dog. Good tread pattern too!
Glad you're diggin' it & thanks for the report, carve on!

What pressure are you running?  I have 205 60 Mitchlin and I found 32-34 as a sweet spot.

I ran 36-38 on the Yoke and that seemed to be about the sweet spot for a good range.
