~0.4" narrower than stock.
Weighs a significant ~2.2 lbs. less.
6000 RPM in 6th gear, ~60 MPH with stock tire
6000 RPM in 6th gear with, ~54 MPH with Shinko 705
Cost $83.16 delivered. I mounted and balanced it myself. Took 1.25 oz. to balance.
Feels pretty good in the first test ride...
More to come...

I'll be curious to hear how well they work, the tread pattern is so similar to stock.
