Hey brother, just wanna let you know if you hadn't seen it.. There's some article using your video as their proof that darkside riding is a bad idea. Great ride BTW. Loving the tunes. Keep tearing it up. I'm about to put on some miles with my first big trip on the darkside. I'm only a few hundred miles into the tire but I can already tell I'm never going back to a motorcycle tire on the rear. It handles like a dream.
Dark siders are almost exclusively guys with giant heavy bikes that don’t lean much they are way better in the streets and let’s face it they are cheapskates 😂 If you actually ride a motorcycle and not some slow ass Harley or Goldwing you’ll appreciate actual motorcycle tires.
Still, a LOT have been doing it for years. I've been on many forums on the subject for months and yet to find someone that had problems or issues with it. Most say they will never go back to MC. I saw only 2 persons saying they did not like the feeling. Will install one soon on my vtx 1800.
@@indigo196799 i’ve been writing for a long time and yes people have been begging other people to do it for years. It’s so weird like ride your own tires don’t try to convince everybody that alone is suspicious
@@JM-ym8vr You really saw some people "begging" other to go with car tires? Yu have any idea why some people would do that? Some would have benefits for this?
Thanks so much for posting lot of us really appreciate have not gone dark side yet on my heavy bike but will soon we are being ripped off by MC tower companies mega high prices and almost no mileage
haha you just commented this video on my post on fb and this is almost exactly how i could describe it.. sure it felttttt different but i don't think it was compromising at all. maybe the people that went darkside and didn't like it just suck at riding bro! XD love the scraping
So glad to see this. I haven’t pushed my wing with my BF Goodrich DG yet. All I’ve heard was there’s no way you could/should run the dragon like that. I love the perspective of this video. Great job
Why are you not using Titanium wear pads instead of steel; the steel give off yellow sparks, the TI give off white sparks, look cooler at night and last longer!
@@jerrywhitejr6645 you're a fucking moron, I've been riding darkside for several years! Handles everything much better than a motorcycle tire and last 10 times as long, dumbass!
Hi Mike just cought the vid Great job riding.I have the dark side tire getting ready to put on my wing to try it.I see air pressure is across the board.what did you run in yours. Thanks.
Hi Mike, is there any weird tricks to make it work out of the box? The instructions are awful and I couldn't get past the "screwing 3 bolts on each side", then everything goes awry. I click the retract/extend buttons and there's a small click coming out of the power adapter but nothing happens. I don't know if I should've bolted the white plastic on a specific height. Hope you still read this. Thanks.
