Weird. The day I installed/tested my Austone for the first time I was doing figure-8's at nearly the same lean in a parking lot as the E3 prior. And I was going around corners with my coffee cup in one hand with little if any noticeable difference in handle bar pressure the first week. To be honest, I have yet to find a negative related to handling, though I have only been to 80 mph a couple three times.
I am not some 'super rider' or anything close. Perhaps this is an actual tire issue? Maybe it is out of round? Perhaps this is some of the difference between a 4 and a 6 ply tire?
NOT bashing your words-- we all have different experiences. Heck, maybe it's all because I am a little guy/lightweight (5'10"and under 160). Though I felt the same with either daughter on the back also. I hope it works out for you, but if you do not feel safe than do what you feel you have to do because nobody wants anyone to get hurt.
