Guys you won't notice any difference in the rain, but remember that rear tire will now hydroplane so count more on the front. As for the braking it is really more of a confidence thing than actual better braking (I tested it). My ASSUMPTION is that because the rear tire makes the bike feel more flat/hooked up on the road the "perception" is that stopping power is increased when it isn't.
I agree with Lotzafun as well and most of his observations sound just like mine. Glad you guys are happy with the alternative. Play with the pressures until you find one you are happy with, about 35-36 psi was where it felt the best for me and don't forget the tire will need some breakin time (about 500 miles) before the sidewalls begin to flex fully. You'll notice the hump as you turn less after the tire begins to flex. Enjoy
