Darkside (Y/N)?

Just a simple poll to see what percentage of KawaNOW has gone to the darkside, or is considering making the leap.

Please, no sermons about the evils or dangers of running a car tire on a motorcycle.

The Dark Side is evil and dangerous and should not be done. Sorry, couldn't resist :). 771 miles and as the song says "just keeps gettin better every day"

By the way, is there anyone on here who really does think ct is a bad idea?? I think with all the recent activity on the subject you would be hard pressed to find someone who is against. Just my humble opinion.

I've seen a few posts that indicate that the writer thinks it's really a bad idea.

I have no problem with anyone who thinks that. Each person has to live by his/her own beliefs and I respect that.

Looking at it very seriously next year. I am still looking at several tires. Still have some miles left on the E3's.

I'm replacing my rear Cobra next week after 12,000 miles.
Putting on an Elite 3 180/70-R16.
Does that answer how I voted?

Still researching myself, but the more I look, the more I lean toward a CT for next year. We'll see, I got some time yet! Northern winters, ya know...

Will probably need a tire next year and with all the reading I'm still undecided. Someone will come and push me off this fence one way or another.

I suppose you'll go to a car tire at about the same time you trade your full-face in for a half helmet, eh TC?
