What's this headshake you guys are talking about? I used to have a wobble on the front when decelerating if I let go of the bars but I thought it was due to a worn out brake pad(completely). After new brakes and a new rear shock there is no head-shake what so ever anymore. I'm still using the stradas...and they seem fine. no balancing issues or anything. Dry traction is close to the diablo supersport just like they say. As far as wet and cold weather ...i don't have any aggressive riding experience for those tires in those conditions for the most part. I rode all winter down to 25 degrees Fahrenheit and they did fine for my commuting. The cornering grip did seem quite diminished though...not like they could ever get very warm though...and wet weather...they seem pretty slippery but higher mileage has it's price.
