There is no doubt that the smaller tire will handle better, at least in the curves that is!

KnotSo,I would bet low 40's
You may be right it will depend on how much Chrome they are putting on that thing, wonder about the cost of the motor, this could end up being a collectors bike some day, first year with this new motor. Kinda like having a first year pan or knuckle head, never know!:2thumbs:

Ray, is that a taller tire also or the same as we are running on our bikes?
It's a 20 and there is a 23 on the front. Liked on the graphic at the top of the first page!

Made in the USA
They needed the 6 piston bigger brakes in front to stop all that rotating mass. Personally I think it may handle hard at high speed with a 23" front billet wheel.
I saw this bike at the factory last Feb, and even got to hear the X-wedge run.
Regarding tire size - they said the trend is going back toward taller tires. You can see it in car design, too, with the tall wheels.
X-Wedge - Really sounded sweet. Deep rumble. Test rider said it had tons of torque.
Fake tank - they had removed and crushed that by the time I saw the bike. It had a real tank, unpainted, with the welds all visible. It musta been real, because they ran it.
Big Bike - this is one LOOONG puppy! With the low dropped seat, it would be a hoot to ride.
Tire width - they said they were going to change the rear fender shape to fit the tire closer.
Now, several months later - who knows what condition it is in now.

Oops. I meant the 220 tire.
