Hi All -
I ride a 1996 R11RS. The original tires were Metzlers. Its time for new tires (I know ... way overdue, although I only have 2000 miles on the bike, unbelievably); the dealership sells and recommends the Metzler Z8 RoadTec.
And Indy that I called said he recommends the Michelin (not sure which model he was referring to). Said it is stickier, has a better ride, and better traction in the wet than the Metzler.
What tire do you have on your bike ? Do you have a certain recommendation ? Note that I tend to stick with OEM (although I understand that OEM is not necessary for tires).
Thanks very much all.
