Hello Chaps,

Time for a tyre change on my Z1R, which has had Pirelli's on for some years now. What do YOU recommend :?: ?

Cheers

Always used Metzelers myself good balance between performance and longevity although it has to be said Im not particularly adventurous in my riding style :oops: you live longer though :)

You will be amazed at the performance of BT45`s.

I`d say most on here use them !

Although I have in the past used some dreadful tyres.... I seem to remember Dunlop K181's were particularly bad...........
My report would be similar to KeithZ1R....my main criterion is how the bike feels. I find Metzeler so good I have not felt inclined to experiment further.

Thank you very much Gentlemen. Your feedback is most appreciated. Has anyone managed to squeeze a 110/90-18 on the front instead of the recommended 100/90-18 :?:
