Debunking the tire age myth

Possibly when airing it back up, it kind'f massaged itself against the sealing surface of the rim.

I had the same idea. It found it's spot again. The tire is only 2 years old, and has a lot of tread on it. It steers quick, but on the other hand, you can correct just as quickly. Those 16" tires make that 750 feel like a 550 in handling. Funny thing is that when rolling it around to position it, my ZZR1200 seems to roll easier. I've checked the bearings and everything else, it might be the geometry? I don't know. The ZZR1200 handles really well too, surprisingly well, but the GS750SE would run circles around it on the back roads, then again, one straight section and you hit warp 9 on the ZZR1200. Two different bikes, both great.
