    As said lots of info on tyres on here. I used to like Bridgestone then went back to Dunlop and found them to be much better for me. I highly recommend Sportsmarts and am now on D211 GP which are more track based but very good and lasted me a good few miles and TD's

    I've used Pilot Power 2 CTs on mine since I took the original factory tyres off it.

    I only really tour. They will do 3000 miles to the South of France and back and never cause any concern in the mountains.

    Theast set of Dunlops I bought was in 2006 (Sportsmax Qualifiers) and they were shockingly shit.

    That's after a couple of laps of the Nurbergring GP Track, Forgot to change pressures so it went round at 42psi. Stuck like glue.
