jneed53 Posted August 18, 2009 Share #1 Posted August 18, 2009 Well, the Kumho was a champ on the Dragon last week. I rode from Dallas to Vogel at high speeds, in rain, at low speeds, on interstates, on back roads, and on the twisties. I had absolutely no issues with wobbling and/or tar snakes. Cornering was great. I am settled in at 38 psi for now. It seems to be a good pressure for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnawake Posted August 18, 2009 Share #2 Posted August 18, 2009 Glad to hear yall made it back. I found our pics on Killboy on the last page. Pretty good pics, but my mirror was covering my face. Oh well... It was great staying in the cabin with you guys. We saw a real bad wreck on I-26 on the way home. Must have had fatalities. When we drove by, thank godness it was in the oposing lanes, the people were just getting out of thier cages, the smoke hadnt even cleared yet. I still dont like interstates. Give me a country road and a good view. Yes, your car tire worked good on the dragon. I was thinking of installing a Gumbo Mudder. The guys up in the North could even ride in the snow.
