Get yourself a PC625 battery and you won't have ANY more problems starting it, even in winter..

the 225 50 16 on my r-3 has got me 2000 mikes so far of course when your on the straights it's track straight and true in the twitie's you need to learn a new way to ride in a turn you have got to get it up on the edge but so far not a hint of slipping the faster you go the better it handles like i said the traction is great you guys don't know how little of a rubber patch your riding on i do like it mike
