Hard use from September to October which dropped down to Medium use in November til February netted me 6667 miles when I changed the rear .

My Metzeler Mez1 lasted under 900 miles on the rear
And my Dunlop D207 lasted about 3000 miles which I thought was ok for a Tyre that was gunned hard over my first Summer of Love on the SV , wish I had the Storms on it then though

Looks like a set of storms then
Will need to check my tyre, see how goosed it is first..

Yep, scrubbed in my first set in the rain and they felt more sure footed than the BT-020s they replace right from the start.

Was that as per my pm? I should work for them shouldn't I...

ok spok to rob at halifax motorcycle spares. really good chap actually. Infact when he asked why i chose these tyers he said Youve been speaking to louise.

Anyways only done 20 miles on them commuting so far but they apear to be a lot slower to tip in than the bridgestones i had on before. Also and this sounds strange but they feel a bit noisyer and "feel heavier" its a strange feeling but ill let you know how they progress.

check tyre pressure's

[dizzyblonde]

yes do check the pressures. I have noticed Rob does overfill them sometimes.

Don't know about being slower to tip in, but you do get an awful lot of feedback from them, which is a good thing.

I found them much quicker to tip in the my sticky icky dunlop sport tyres I had previously (which I found weird) do check the tyre pressures like other people have said. Think I'm running 39rear 36 front, what are other people using?
