I have recently completed a 2000 mile run on this tyre (MalleRally - Lizard to Castle of Mey / John O'groats and back home). From what I had read before I started I was apprehensive about what to expect. My other co-riders were changing their tyres as we were all on Triumphs which had the tyre fitted as standard. Some reviews gave a unfavourable impression. Having spent a lot of money on other bike preparations I didn't want to replace my nearly new tyres because they only had 1500 miles on them. I have ridden in glorious sunshine, speedy bends, rutty roads, absolute downpours, greasy roundabouts and one particular high speed bend (I wish I had not been keeping up with someone on a Buell at the time). I have to say this tyre probably saved me from some bad outcomes on many occasions. It did not underperform in any way, in fact I did not have to think about my tyres because it didn't hiccup in any way. There was one moment over a cattle grid on the Yorkshire moors (my fault for braking and turning at the same time) and a slight kick out on a very tight roundabout in Ambleside in very wet conditions (I was at 45 degrees) .
I felt I had to right some of the wrongs spoken about this tyre. I have only done 4000 miles on it so far, however this is a good tyre in my opinion.
