Hi all,
My factory tires are almost due to be changed but im not sure which tyre to go for :?
I ride in all weather so it has to perform in the wet and dry.
Im mostly looking for grip and performance but wear rate has to be slightly considered.
Your opinions plz????
Ive been looking at the Continental Road Attack (very well priced)what do you think?
See the tyre section.

:D Metzeler Z6 Roadtec's...... They are brill in the WET and DRY
Ask Cloggsy, his Dunlops 220 were not so good in the wet so has just bought himself a set of Z6's... :twisted:

Yep, another recommendation for the Roadtecs... though it seems the Pirelli Strada should be very similiar. Road Attack seems a good choice too, I don't think you'd go far wrong with any of the 3.

I'm on Bridgestone 020's and very happy!!!
I wouldnt have anything else but 014's on mine now.
Rock solid wet or dry, enough grip to take the ****, quicken up the steering nicely, although they do make the bike a little more "lively" (compared to my old Avons). I find the wiggly bars quite entertaining, and its not a full on tankslapper, just more of a message that your giving the old girl some, however this could be more down t my riding style, or the fact the suspension is erm standard and erm ****e.......)
I can't fault them.

me too, theyre grippy, have air in them and when i ride them they stay rubber side down and they stay round, oh and when i get off the bike they stay black.
ive always found these things to be very important when choosing tyres
