Suncoaster,
 
Could you maybe repost those images?  They seem to have expired and I'd love to see this solution.

This looks like it's becoming a common problem as it  happens to me just about every other morning going to work. The bike idles at about 2500 rpm until I turn the key off and on. I can do it now while rolling with a quick switch off-on and it never happens at any other time (on my ride home or during the day) .

One thing to remember when reading posts about a poster's bike being miraculously transformed by the replacement of one tire brand or model with another is that they likely have been riding on a fairly worn profile for quite some time before they got their new tire and have gotten used to it's increasingly poor steering due to wear. Once they get a now tire they may believe that the radical improvement is due to their choice of tire where actually it's simply because they have a NEW, properly profiled tire.
 
I think the Roadsmart 2 is a pretty great tire for the money and the mileage you get out of it.  I bet PR4's are great too, especially in the rain.  Does any of you high mileage riders have any experience with the two and what differences there are in the milage you get out of them?
