In WV, we call them tars, the rest of you call them tires. I just screwed down a set of PR2's. 7 miles and it is an interesting transformation. Smoother ride and an eerie sense of smooth control. I'll do 100 plus miles today. More impressions later.

Thems good tars, I got some a little while ago- I sorta know what you mean about the eerie sense of smooth control.

They're very good in the wet too.

Did 110 miles, much of it between 85 to 100 mph. I like it. Twas Thanksgiving Day and all the smokey's were eating turkey. I was on my way down to the coal fields for a feast. There is a sweet spot at 90 to 95 Mph on the Uly. High speed cornering was good, too. Little wind gusts shake your arms just a little and induce a shimmy. 95 mph wind gusts are not that little. Nonetheless the Uly holds speed over long distances quite well.
