Change of tyre manufacturer, more cornering confidence?
#9
Fairly sure your issue Graham is not trusting a modern motorbike tyre. Seen loads of cyclists and scooters lose the front end in London. If you think of a bicycle tyre then the contact area is fuck all, a scooter isn't exactly set up with an ideal wheel size (tyre choice) or weight distribution for decent wet cornering.


What tyres are you running..do you ride 365 all weather, bet there decent tyres and you can't remember the last time you locked the front in the wet resulting in a major. Wet cornering over manholes, lines or diesel as we all know is a different story so I think you need to forget the past.
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
