Yeah that bike of yours I would love to have to have too. Dont forget about that victory hammer 
Thats why I did not get a Harley they are terrible for everything. Mine has big 320mm dual front disc and 280 rear so it brakes actully really really well. Handles well to for a cruiser,I am always trying to scrape peg on it. . I just need more power lol. I mean its no sport bike, but its a muscle cruiser as I look at it.

quite a few guys on the street have gone down due to Dunlop's tendencies to be sticking at one moment and then slipping aggressively into a non catch-able slide. What Im saying has nothing to do with what I read on a forum... I ride with a large group of folks.. it only takes 3 or 4 guys that I know, that are experienced riders to have an issue with them to make me leary of dunslops. Tires are so important...etc...
I was referring to Dunlop's street tires.
AMA racers are using special everything... can you buy the exact same Dunlop tires they use for the street? I wouldnt think the tires the racers use would not be street legal.

If you are running any of the top tires from the top companies (Dunlop, Metzeler, Bridgestone, Michelin, Pirelli etc.) you are running on a very good tire. The real differences in the brands is the feel of the tire not the grip levels. You're just getting fed opinions. "I went down on Dunlops so they're a shitty tire." is not a valid argument. plus, you're sitting here saying they suck when you've never tried them, lol.
I have ridden a few bikes shod with Dunslops.. I have experienced their twitchyness first hand. Thank FSM I never went down because of them.
