Avon Spirit St

[kentols]

I bought this radial Avon Spirit ST 150/80-16 because the Michelin Pilot Commander 2 that was on the bike when I bought it (2017 july) was a slippery danger in wet.
The new Avon on the other hand has good grip but it is like running on sand when turning in a curve. Feels like a beginning to a slide. Like a snake on white lines. The Commander was real fun compared to the Spirit.
Now to a question. Is there any chance that I will be able to look at all the pictures that have been "labeled" "Please update your accont... Photobucket?
I have to make the switch to 17" and would like to see pictures.

How long have you had them mounted, some tires take time to scrub in. I like Avon tires, never a problem.

[kentols]

200 miles. Have nerver before had a tirechange whitout the great feeling of easyness and precision, this is a first. But i hope you are right. Nerver had Avons before

200 miles.... they are scrubbed. Did you rude some twisty roads during that time. Like a few?

[kentols]

Yes, I live in a twisty road area . I have 43 psi in it. But it feels better now than the first ride. I know it shouldn't feel the way it feels. Just don't know why?

[shpielers]

43psi sounds a little high. Probably wouldn't be the cause of your issue but might be contributing.

[92xjunker]

Like way high...

[kentols]

Ok. So what pressure do you ride on? Recommended pressure is 42psi for this tire said the importer here in Sweden.

[shpielers]

42 is the max on all the Kat tired I've used.

Stock rear is recommended at 36psi, on my 600/750 I run 39 with pilot road 4's.

[92xjunker]

The pressure settings are on the rear tire liner, should be a label. I run mine at 36# +- given your weight and riding style.

Thank you! I will test 36 psi on a 5 day trip to Norways curvy mountain roads, starting today .
