BT 08-11-2002, 10:58 PM Someone who knows from Freddie Spencer ( the Michelin Distributor Western U.S.A.) told me when I commented that the front H2 felt strange that I must run 32 in the front because of the high sidewall or it would feel strange. I was running 31 and the one pound made all the difference. I was running Race softs in the front and went to the retail H2 which is "hard" I found it was okay but not nearly as good as the Race soft for me. This is at Willow. Instead of trying the H2 soft I switched to Dunlop GPs. Also the H2 changes your front height quite a bit, because of the high sidewall. I liked the H2 rear alot. Hope this helps. | ||
