    NEW TYRES

    These tyres were on my bike when I bought it, I'm running on Pirelli Scorpion on rear wich is due a change and Dunlop Trailmax on front wich has loads of tread BUT i'm changing, what would you go for??

    Hi
    I've just gone from Scorpions to a set of Metzler tourance . They feel great both wet and dry and reasonably priced from M&P.

    Thats my vote

    I've got Bridgestone Battlax on the front and Metzeler Tourance on the rear. Someone I know said Bridgestone are fairly soft - so better braking tyres and Metzeler are harder - so better traction without the wear.

    Sounds sensible, but only time will tell.
