Haters gotta' hate, but I haven't seen any on these sorta' threads recently, not counting the uber-defensive folks that can't accept certain information about the other side of the coin.

I appreciate you guys. I get a good laugh at some of your comments. To be honest, I went darkside initially because I had some close calls with people stopping in front of me unexpectedly and the rear would lock up with the slightest touch. Made me especially nervous in the rain. The car tire gives me more confidence and grip on quick breaking. I traded a little handling in hard corners for stopping confidence.

Could not have said it better myself.

No, Elvis.
To my recollection, you have stated car tires are as good if not better than MC tires!
Don't back stroke on us now, boy!

The hate should go to those stealers that charge $800-$900 to change and put on new tires on the Rocket, and another $50 to clean and grease the splines. If my buddy's Triumph dealsership hadn't gone out of business i'd be on the darkside again today. Back when the DS was an option the haters were 9.9 out of 10. I investigated it and couldn't find anyone that thought it was the right thing to do. Some of you may know Ty Alexander Huynh(picture below) he was the only person back in the day that i knew who was going Darkside on the Rocket. Thanks to YT i was able to get his info and went for it. I remember my buddy saying bring it in when the boss goes home and as i left him saying you didn't get it changed here. Don't fear the reeper...!! Ask grand dad what his tires were like.

Think "hates" a bit harsh. There as those that do run C/Tyres .. those that don't and won't but i can't ever remember conversation getting anywhere near "hatred".

To each their own. I love my car tire and respect its limitations.
