Funny thing, The Ohio rally was last week and we had a Major trike dealer (CSC) show up to demonstrate trikes. first of all THANKS to them for showing up... its a real coup when you get a tier1 vendor so attend.
I noticed one thing in particular about their new kits.
they have Narrowed the width of the rear tires.
I asked the rep, and he told me the they went to a smaller tire to reduce hydroplaning, and increase wet traction.

:clapping:
I had also noticed that Motortrike got rid of those Fat Goodrich Ta's and slimmed down their tire.
I had been saying this ws a problem for over 2 years, and most recently after last year when my friend and I were in an accident. an accident where he could not stop on water and I could. the only difference between the 2 of us was I had narrower hydro-edges and he had those fat Ta's. (which are still good tires).
I would like to think that some of my letters and preaching to them "May" have done some good...
I'd like to think so :)
but anyway the tires are smaller... Kudos to them!!!!
