Default RE: Metzeler ME880 tires

Hey, thanks for all the info on these tires. Was leaning toward them, but now instead of leaning, just fell over, so that's how I'll go. One question though. On my softtail (deuce), I have a real problem with what I could only call a 'wobble' or 'flex' in a high speed turn. Between 70 and 80 I feel like the frame is flexing. I can't really describe the feel, but it's almost like the bike wants to pull itself upright, and fights the lean. I counter-steer almost exclusively, and I'll admit that I'm just a hair over agressive, but now wondering if the tires are the culprit. I am running Progressive springs up front, but stock in the rear. Any thoughts or experience along those lines? Thanks again, very infomative posts. Appreciate it.
