It's been a year now... How has the Yokohama car tire worked out for you so far?
Any issues at all? Anything good to say about it? Other comments?

I came down from MI to Cedar Key FL for the New Year to be with a motorcycle/camping group and it is where I am now, but I'll be heading down to Collier-Seminole State Park near Naples FL tomorrow. (1-6-15) I have my 2006 Honda Reflex hanging off the rear of my truck. Did a little bit of local riding, but it has been cooler and more damp than I'd really like. Naples seems like a sunnier ride prospect.

Hope I can get wifi somewhere there so I can post... If not, then I will when I get back to Michigan. I'll will try to take one last look here before I head out. (internet service has been intermittent here though)

Cost does matter

Bandio, the Yokohama has 15000 mi on it and shows little wear. The ride characteristics are slightly different than a cycle tire but for a commuter this is the ticket. It will last forever and provides great stability especially with two up riding. Thanks for your pioneering efforts and information.
