has anyone noticed any improvment with the 190
I guess it would depend on what you are looking to improve? There's definitley a different feel as the tire is typically more flat with more of a drop off towards the wall. That takes some getting used to, but honestly I don't really notice it anymore.
It may be a little less responsive if you're really riding aggressive in twisties. So it just depends on what your goals are for changing the tire.

Hi,netty,no this tire would be going my buell,not far enough along to know what I will be putting on the kawsaki yet,but that is an interesting idea.
