R1100S rider recomended tyres

[budman200210]

Original Bridgestones: noisy rear gone at about 5K Fair traction and stiff ride

Maxxix Supermaxx rear: inexpensive (comparatively) mileage about 6500 w/ a lil tread left

Conti Road Attacks; good in wet, 2 weeks and 5500 miles of US western mountain roads 2-up and the rear went away just in time to get home. Good traction 2 up wet or dry. Quiet and good ride

Pirelli Diabli Strada: good traction and decent in rain, 5K + looks good, fairly sticky for street use, changed out before gone due to long trip

Metzler Z6: rear has made 2 trips and lots of daily commuting so far. Estimate 8 K rear and 11-12K front. So far my fave.

Pilot road pending maybe ???

I am about to mount another set (rainy season is upon me I guess). I have been happy w/ the mileage compared w/ the others so far.

I've had BT021's for about 3.5K now, and I like them.

I haven't noticed any noise, but then I always ride with earplugs.

The front does seem sensitive to pressure now more than when new.

I may have different results to everyone else though due to my extremely soft suspension set up.

All that remains now is to see what sort of mileage I get from them, compared to the 6K I got on 020's. Its looking good so far.
