MacBane, thanks for the input. Saves 3-4K on new race set up.
DJ: Thanks for kind words. I've actually cut back on the size of my fleet. It's a form of insanity/obsession. I've never scraped my TOCE on the street, but I don't ride extremely aggressively out in the world. As a matter of taste, I do not like Dunlops. I would suggest Pirelli (my race choice) or even Michelin. The stock Dunlops on my CVO Street Glide (yeah I know Harley, but we're talking tires) tracked rain grooves common in Oklahoma highways and did not inspired wet confidence - or confidence in general. This summer on the wonderful roads around Sturgis, the admittedly bloated Street Glide was not happy in real curves. Switched to Michelin Commander IIIs in September. Problems solved. Hope this gives some insight. But is merely one guy's opinion/experience. I'm not a rabid brand loyalist in any aspect of life, though I do have preferences. But I'm always willing to adapt.
