Only time today for a quick spin around the neighborhood but they feel really nice and softened the ride tremendously at lower pressure with proven rolling resistance improvement. Wifes FX got the same treatment, we will put some miles on this week and get a better feel for the upgrade.

They look great but I cannot post a picture.....
UPDATE - Wish I had not ridden 1000 miles on the stock tires, these tires are light years better. Less vibration, smooth and fast! Have put around 300 miles on them including some charity rides as long as 64 miles.
