01.02.2025 from Alex Rhodes
Predictable grip in the wet and dry. Seem to not wear quite as well compared to previous Bridgestones, but grip a bit better in the wet on my ‘98 GSX 750, I am not a GP rider but then again, this isn’t a ‘lightweight’ 500 twin either, when riding something like this, you have to mean it and don’t want to be let down by cheapo ‘India Rubber brands’ half way round a corner. These are far better than anything that was available when the bike was new as are all mainstream brands. So far, I can’t fault them. Generally speaking, really sticky tyres wear out quick on heavier bikes and long life tyres don’t grip. These seem to have dual compound characteristics??
14.08.2024 from Paul Knowles
Absolute perfection. These tyres inspire confidence! Superb handling and braking characteristics. The make my bike feel lighter and more agile. I run them 3psi higher than rated on my machine and they feel great. Very happy with the tyres and I’ll by them again and they have now become my go to tyre!
07.08.2024 from Marcio Cunha
I drive motorcycles around 40 years, priming for safety than sportivity. My goal is ride long kms and safe. Not for speed.

before i use Bridgestone tyres, when i chang to Mitas tyres i see hudge difference, rear tyre is much better stick to asphalt than with BS. Propably this is the best choice with lower price.
27.06.2022 from Lenehan
190/55 rear - 120/70 front. I normally buy Michelin, Dunlop or Conti Sport tyres but spotted these on eBay and read as many reviews as I could find, over a couple of weeks, before deciding to buy. I haven't been disappointed! ....Cleaned newly fitted tyres with a blast of brake cleaner, clean rag then warmed them up on a 6-mile high-speed blast around local ring road and couple of laps of 3 interconnected motorway roundabouts, before a big left-hand helical motorway slip road then up onto the pennines for a few miles of twisties. Bike felt comfortable, solid, balanced and predictable from the start. They went straight on font and rear without the need for balancing (after the valve - balance marks were lined up). Tyres have inspired more confidence with every mile and haven't squirmed in the dry yet, even under full throttle. Fantastic performance for the money.
21.09.2021 from Mladen
Very grippy tires, warms up quickly, very flickable and easy to switch directions, especially when new. I tested them completely new and cold, went full gas and they didn't slide. So when new they are very grippy. After 6000 km grip gradually dissapear as tyre wears out in the middle. You can expect 10 000km from the rear and front can go at least another 3-5000 km. Higly recommend. The best cheap new tyre for your money.

These tyres were a revelation. All year round sporty road tyre - which perfectly matches the Street Triple. Plenty of dry summer grip and just on the quick side of neutral steering, but quick warm up and consistent grip in winter. Confident wet grip.

No issues with these tyres, they provide the grip and stability that I need for my journeys I have only done 1200km so far on the tyres and they seem fine l've owned this bike for 20years so I have a good feel of it I used to commute all year on it but now only pleasure runs out

04.11.2022 from Nigel Hinchliffe
With almost 50years of motorcycle riding experience my focus is more on riding defensively and safely and only pushing to the (my) limits on track days. I have not done a track day on this set of tyres yet so cannot claim to have tested their abilities. That said, I have ridden in wet and dry weather conditions without any concerns over grip or stability. At this stage tyre wear appears good, as I would expect from Conti's, with no sign of squaring off. I am very happy with these tyres and am planning on replacing them with more of the same when the time comes.
10.03.2022 from Steve
Bearing in mind being a motorcycle rider with limited experience, the only noticable drawback with the Continental Motion is perhaps the compound is slightly edged towards performance which increases wear. Perhaps this is normal although my riding style is .... how should i say, .... reserved even careful and therefore do not get full use from high performance tyres. Tyre dimension option not possible:- 140/70/17

Nice stable tyre. They were fitted to the bike when I bought it and saw no reason to try anything different when it came time to replace the rear tyre

As a Bloodbiker I ride in all areas and in all weathers. I had learned before I started this that the Metzeler tyre was excellent in both wet and dry conditions. the effect is that you are always riding the same bike with the same performance characteristics - on previous bikes it felt that i was riding a different bike whenever it rained compared to when it was dry. On aa advanced skills training day, one of the instructors ran up to check what tyres I had fitted as he was surprised at the way my bike handled and could stop in shorter distances than most of the other bikes. On my main bike, this is now the fourth or fifth set I have fitted, and when I bought another bike, there was no doubt in what tyres I had fitted straight away, with these being the automatic choice for my daughter's bike too.

25.11.2022 from Tim Rice
Using Metzler tyres on my bike gives me confidence whatever the weather. Too many other brands behave differently in the wet vs dry - it can be like having two different bikes on the same journey. You don't sacrifice longevity with the Metzler either, with 9-12,000 miles per set (15,000km+. That's better than some other brands.). Their latest compound seems to have gone back to what they used a few years ago and the grip quality has improved (it had been deteriating over the last couple of versions - still better than other makes, but not the same as they made 5-6 years ago. As I volunteer to deliver blood products, I'm out in all weathers, throughout the year, so the performance of my tyres is vitally important. the Meltzer's do deliver!

Not for this bike. Either tire is bad or design is not suitable for Caponord. Rear feel like ice cube on hot plate at all pressure tries. front OK. Tires are quite but rear is will frighten you. Tossing out a new set of tires.

Had these on my r1200rt le the pair of Z6 Metzlers were fitted for a two up full lugage tour from England to Florence Italy 2500 miles round trip, motorway and all road types I was very happy with all aspects of these tyres performance and would recommend them without hesitation.
21.07.2020 from Keith
Due to Covid-19 not had a chance to do a real test. The commute to work has so far not thrown up any issues. When I purchased the bike it already had the Metzeler Roadtec Z6 tyres fitted, I did 11300km them, did not have any issues at all hence this purchase.
09.01.2019 from John King
Fitted new tyres for Trans Europe trip and experienced a wide range of driving conditions with confidence in these tyres throughout. From very hot temperatures on Italian Motorways, high rough surface on mountain passes in France, to wild windy and wet Scottish roads all with confidence at high medium and low speeds
27.09.2015 from David Mantle
Tyres need warming up properly for maximum effect. Has caught me out on a couple of occasions when not fully warmed. Otherwise a fair choice for the money but may not buy again unless cheap.

Have used the tyres both on road and off road. The tyres are more capable than I am as a rider therefore dealt easily with everything I have put them through with ease.
13.03.2023 from Michael
Tyres were purchased to do some green lane riding. These are very suitable for the purpose and handle as good as road tyres when in the tarmac. Only downside is that you get around 3000 miles out of a rear tyre and it’s done!
29.10.2022 from Lewis
This tyre has been great. After initial fitting the steering was a bit strange but after 50-100 miles it felt like a road tyre. Great off road and one of the best knobbly tyres on the road. Done 10500km on the tyre, only have the tkc80 on the front. I have a 70 rocks on the rear. I believe the front will do another rear. Tyre was great but the delivery time from the provider was shocking

For UK weather, these are great. Fast warm up and not a disaster if you hit loose surfaces. They are a rain tyre pattern, but with a relatively harder compound and originally designed for supermoto bikes. They are still soft compared to an allround tyre like pirelli diablo strada, but do have good tread depth. As one of the few tyres that have the front wheel tread pattern facing down instead of up, i admit that aesthetics played a part in my decision. However, crappy and cold UK roads are where these excel. They warm up almost instantly and don't melt into nothing on longer motorway(freeway) stretches. I think they're too short lived for a commuter because it's a single compound and will square off the rear, but for the weekend warrior that wants a real allrounder for any roads, they are hard to beat. The K60 scout doesn't come in popular 17" sizes and is more plastic than rubber. The ubiquitous TKC80 vibrate at high speeds and aren't great in the wet. The Bridgestone AX41s scrambler and Pirelli Scorpion tyres are a close competitor, although I may only try it on the rear next time. If you have a heavy bike, no problem as k73 are bias ply. If you want to do a track day, get something else. Interestingly, more and more custom bikes are fitting heidenau k73 in lieu of the too aggressive continental TKC80 and the not aggressive enough TKC70.

Tyres act and feel as they look, tight handling on corners lots of grip on bends swift braking where necessary great in the wet on drying surfaces the ride is superb in the wet will out perfirm your expectatiins (but be safe) roll well no real loss of speed a really goid fiit prunt on the road in the winter. I personally have winter and summer tyres i swap out when the seasons are rught , i do ride all year round would love Heidenau to bring out a z-Q rated for a rear 180/55 hint hint as my litre bike would lap at the floor with these on! Great value , great design and all sorts of fun when you have to turn it up.

Break away is progressive, wet weather breaking is very impressive, longevity and resistance to squaring off even on long journeys has made the tyre a great companion for the money. My only gripe is a lack of sensation nearer the limit of cornering grip. although due to the smooth breakaway, understeer is relatively recoverable. Not bad at all.

I am on my second pair, I think they provide great grip and ride quality. They feel much better than the BT45. They wear acceptably, around 9000 miles/14000 KM for rears double that for fronts. Judging from the other posts I guess they don't like German roads.

Better than Dunlop Arrowmax which is fixed by factory.

These are the best tyres in the wet I've ever had. Have given me lots of confidence and allows me to lean further in a corner than I ever have.

Good tyre for the price, but there are better tyres to be found.

Very dissapointed. Tires arrived bumpy. Front tire felt like tractor tire, shipped it back to mitas slovenia, they sent another one (less bumpy) but still bad.
16.04.2023 from Sebastjan
no complaints, the tire is more than great for the money. the handling of the motorcycle is satisfactory both in the wet and in the dry.. the rear tire lasted about 9500 km of quite wild driving in wet and dry conditions.. even on the highway over 200 km/h it is very stable.. the front tire would have lasted a few more km..
