Here's a little of how my ride in to work was this morning, I'm really liking the darkside, it handles way better than I expected

So let my try this again, this a a little detail of my ride in to work was this morning....

Picture please - From front - I'd like to see how pinched a fit it is.
And yes I'm pretty sure it will be slightly as it's designed for a 4.24" rim .

But the Azaro is starting to show signs of wear.
I hear avon stopped making that tire I got a spare already but maybe in spain there a few left in stores?
 
I recently went Darkside with my Rocket T. Riding at speed, I don't even notice. Until you get use to it you will notice it requires a tug of the handlebar going into a curve where previously you just pitch in.
The most notable change is low speed maneuvering on uneven surfaces such as gravel or roads with imperfections at intersections.
That said, I don't intend to go back. I'm Darkside from hence forth.

I'm running a Yokohama AVID EnVigor ZPS 195/55-16. It is a Z rated runflat. ~$130.oo.
The width (mounted) is a perfect match for the factory tire 180/70 R16 however the OD is a bit smaller.
I had to deduct 6% with TuneECU to fix the spedo.

Note: I ran my previous DS front (Michelin Pilot Road 2) backwards and did not like the squirmy feel. (remounted it forward)
