\r\n \r\n i am over 200 lbs and the roads spin alot on my street ride. have not tried them for stunting. i have read in alot of threads how guys love these tires for drifting so that tells me that they do spin real easy. you probably need to run the pilot powers or maybe the newer pilot pures for better traction.\r\n

Not on standups considering my weight is mostly in the rear. (110 lbs of me) \n \nHave ne of u ladies had troubles with rear tire spinning , has neone tried puttin weights on the back end or adjusting suspension or nething and what is a good tire pressure that would give you enuff grip but not too wobily..Im running about 18 i believe, maybe this is a dumb question lol idk. \nMy boyfriend runs the same tire on his 36 and doesnt have as many probs, i think it may be the tire and my weight on the bike, idk.. \nBut Its really annoying! I didnt have probs with the battlelax, maybe you can suggest a good rear tire for lightweight people \r\n \r\n

\nthe bt021 got replaced by the newer version bt023...just put one one last night... its just a redesigned version not dual compound
\n
\ni just came off of the pilot road 2, and personally i hated it, its too hard and barely hooks up, i just got used to it spinning and then getting thrown into a wheelie...
\nif you burnout first it helped sometimes

\r\n \r\n Its your clutch up technique IMO. I weigh 130lbs & run the same tire except with 45psi. Try being smoother on the clutch release \r\n

+1 same thing happened to me when I had my f2, I was about 120lbs at the time. Clutchin to hard=spin.\r\n
