Just got my PR2's , few hundred miles on them, WOW! what a difference with regard to the Stock tire. I was impressed with the Avon storm 2's I put on the Meanie and I have been going back and forth the last thousand miles between the 2 bikes. The COnnie has me carving up corners and riding in rain with confidence I did not yet feel on the tourer with the stock tire. The confidence I felt with the Avons on the Meanie is now echoed with the PR2's on the pavement eater.
Did you go with a 50 or 55" rear tire?
