Ciao.
That's what happened last weekend.
Just a normal curve at a normal speed.
Clean an dry road, no oil, no gravel, no dirt...
You know, a Street Bob cannot lean that much...:s
Well, all of a sudden, my front wheel slipped!
It lasted just for a moment, then the grip was regained...
But it scared the......EDIT.... out of me!
(Note: EDIT stands for terror and fear and shivering body :s)
The tyre is stock Dunlop and the pressure was correct.
I have about 9.000 km on it (about 5.500 miles).
I was planning to change my tyres at 12.000 km, and replacing them with Dunlop again.
Now I'm no longer sure about that: are Dunlop tyres of a lower quality???
I need grip more than duration: whats the best tyre to get?
Metzeler? Pirelli? Michelin?
Safety first! :s
