    Dammit!! If I didn't just buy a set of Q3s I would be all over these.

    If GMD setup my bike to run with Dunlop D211, will changing brands dramatically effect handling?

    It will change your geometry setup a bit. To what extend will depend on whether you were running the US or UK D211's:

    The diameters of the tires are as follows:

    D211 US
    120/70 = 604mm
    190/55 = 647.3mm
    190/60 = 657.4mm

    D211 UK
    120/70 = 605mm
    190/55 = 649mm

    Pi's
    120/70 = 604mm
    180/55 = 641mm

    So adjust height accordingly. The V2's carcase is supposed to be stiffer, more closely to that of the Dunlop UK's. So maybe a few minor tweaks on the knobs to dial them in.

    Kumpy, John nailed it. Very small adjustment needed up front. The V2's behave very similarly to the Dunlops so you won't notice much change.
