ingrid ran like a top. no problems whatsoever. the fuzion ZRi's i put on her are plenty sticky: i can't get them to break loose in a straight line! i did almost kill myself by running into a huge piece of road equipment backing into the road (around a hair-pin, no flags, no warning, no cones, nothing. a motorcyclist would have been in SERIOUS trouble.).

well you gotta love that she has weathered the winter hibernation well.

I must look at marilyn tires and see what they are, must say that they weren't too good in the wet puddles I had to drive her in yesterday, she stuck like 5hit to a blanket, but when I hit rolling water or puddles she fairly stepped out of line.

obviously the biggest one wins on roads when you come across large machinery, however the drivers should still be careful of other road users, and yes a motorbike under one of those does not fair well at all, ask my bro, he has some fairly good scars along his legs and arse, from a few fast drops trying to avoid stuff, or hitting stuff.
