My wife has always been unhappy with the handling of her Wee (fnar fnar), and has lacked confidence in the bike since she got it. Even though the tyres were nearly brand new I’ve been nagging her for ages to change them as they were of the evil Trailwing variety that made my Vee handle like a pig.
She insisted it was the bike and has become increasingly dispondant with it, causing her to talk about going back to a bike like her previous GPZ500. So unbeknown to her I took the bike in and for her birthday had a fresh set of Continental Trail Attack 2’s fitted and then took the bikes out for a run with her.
Helmet off after 50 miles she was grinning ear to ear. She said the bike was turning and holding lines throught the bends. Now the front is less vague and she says it’s the best bike Shes had, and no talk of other bikes.
Only thing to mention, can't comment on wet weather performance yet!
On another plus, it sorted out what to get her for her birthday !!
Big thumbs up for Conti’s
