    Avon Storm 2 Ultras. [smiley=thumbup.gif]

    I'm getting 8,000 miles out of a rear tyre on my CB1000R.

    Get mine from Steve Lynham Motorcycles (ind estate next to Swindon Crem)

    Hi Kurt

    Had these Michelin Road Pilot 3's fitted and have tested them in dry and wet weather. THEY ARE BRILLIANT!!!! No twitching on corners and wet weather grip is probably better than in the dry. Far better than my old Bridgestones which had done 9k and were starting to square off. Gives you a lot more confidence leaning into corners and it's like riding a new bike. Get yourself a set, you won't regret it. Ok, a bit pricier than the rest but how much do you value staying on your seat. 8-)

    Had Dunlop Sportmax II (The dual compound version) on my R6 last, got about 1000k more miles out of it than the standard one. Managed a total of about 3000mi on the I and 4000mi on the II. Both the I and II were good but I have gone back to Bridgestone BT023 now as the last one I owned lasted 7000mi and its cheaper.

    I ride pretty rapidly and cant notice any difference between the Dunlop and BS at all on the road!
