On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate the improved handling after going dark?
Ours is a red, black and chrome 2017 F3 Limited. Bought new in 2/2019. The avatar is my first bike back in 1952, a Simplex Servi-Cycle. Photo taken at the Barber Museum.

That is actually a difficult question for me. I have had no handling problems with the Kendas. I do not feel the darkside tires are that much better as far as handling is concerned. Where they are supposed to shine is in the longer mileage per tire. That remains to be seen for us. 6K and counting so far. For me, I would say the same for handling at this time.
I will also add, both of us are conservative riders. We obey the speed limits, don't do burn outs, donuts, or anything like that.
Linda says I drive more aggressive than she does...but I don't think so.
