what size tire do they run now? 190's?
I believe you're right on all counts.
Switching to 800's completely backfired on the governing body. Going fast straight is easy and relatively safe, going around turns fast is hard and pretty dangerous (look at jorge lorenzo's crash reel from this season. Highsides, highsides and more highsides). Durr, any street rider could've told them that.
