[QUOTE="an-guy, post: 1460343, member: 99303"] I get it, it's annoying to keep seeing tire threads for those who've been around for years. But with forums dying in favor of other means, I really don't feel bad for starting one up. This one has 66 replies now, that's a lot of members who engaged with the site. A lot of opinions, yes of course. But that's exactly what I wanted. All I could find about tires I wanted was "this works good on my 200LB lighter sport bike that does 5k miles a year" so I wanted to hear opinions from FJR owners. I read RoadSmart many times. I actually had a rear of these on my VFR800 because I ran over a nail somehow but I really hated them because I accidentally broke the rear loose in the rain many times. I'm also no longer happy with the PR4s I have... I might ride a little harder than some riders but this front tire is pretty much done with the rear having about 2-3K left. An FJR owner I know ran R6s on his, they were awesome for the first couple thousand miles but are now cupping pretty badly. And both of ours are developing this issue where they kindof develop a shoulder and once you lean the bike past it, the bike feels like it's low siding. We've both accidentally drug pegs now just during normal riding. Thinking I'm going with the Metzeler Roadtec 01s. [/QUOTE]
