I installed an Avon Azaro for my C-10's rear two days ago, replacing a way-too-slick ME880 that came from the PO. I rode in the rain to work yesterday but it cleared up for the ride home. Since installing the tire, I've noticed that Connie goes entirely too fast most of the time, especially through curves. I keep telling her, "Connie, we shouldn't be going this fast." but she just giggles and goes faster. All I can do is hang on for dear life and display a broad smile of shock and dismay. Her balance is completely off, she's now a lot more Sporty than she is Tourey, I'd say it's about an 80:20 S to T ratio now. So, if you're looking for tires, beware these particular evil black doughnuts. Once you put them on, your bike will be very difficult to restrain and police officers (who do not ride) will not be understanding about it.
