Mith, i don't ride like a maniac and i also think i ride pretty smoothly.
The way Carlos says he rides, spinning the tires up exiting corners, passing cars WFO all the time, etc, etc.
I don't do high speed runs, burnouts, any stuff like that. I ride sport/Tour mode. I don't understand how some people can get 7000 miles out of them and some people only get 3400 miles out of them?
