WOW

"Chicken Strip Assessment Technology"

I think that will further increase the amount of accidents from people trying to chase the numbers without properly learning the skills needed.

I like the elephant at the edge though...something about it...

wow, that is actually kinda funny.

Kinda cool though, a good way to judge how much your lean angle is, but i dont think you really need a chart on the tire for it...

And the elephant is cool =D Fastest elephant ive ever seen.

All...FYI....One of my co-workers had purchased a set and rode on them to CA. After a couple of hours, his bike started to get a vibration that he did not recognize. When he pulled over he noticed chunks of the rear tire missing. He purchased a different set of tires later and contacted metzler only to only have the company deny any culpability in the incident. For this reason, I will not purchase any metzler tire......

I agree. I see a lot of bone heads chasing the elephant and crashing
