Are those the snowtex K60 or the regular?
I've had the regular K60 on the GS, and while dry grip is fine, I found them downright scary in greasy wet conditions. The rear shouldn't completely let go just from a careful downshift.

Agreed they'll never be an Anakee or something similar, but I was prepared for that. I've had TKCs for ages on the dommie so I'm used to having less rubber on the road and the sometimes funky handling that goes with knobbies.
I'm a complete chicken in the rain anyway, and was being extra careful with the K60, so I wasn't quite prepared for it to let go completely and have the tail swing out significantly on just a gentle downshift. I've had involuntary powerslides as well, without even trying. Never had that on TKCs...
Though in the dry, even the kind of cold late november dry like now, K60s are fine. As in scrape the footpegs fine. I like 'em in the dry, it's just that it rains a bit too often...
Haven't had them on the dommie though, so the difference in weight may make them handle differently. (170 vs 215 kg)
