RE: Thinking about a wider rear tire

Along with size, the tire profile is important too. My old Quota went from so-so handling to "flickable" went I went to a more rounded profile. She would drop into corners like no mans business. The Griso is certainly more flickable, more so than the CB (but not sport bike quick) but when it comes to the twisty bits the big old Quota could show the CB a thing or two.
