Metezler M1's are a great tire and Kneedraggers.com has great prices and so does ridenow.com.

 

I use Bridgestone bt 020 front and rear as i do HIGH mileage. in the UK i have found FWR in Kennington, London both cheap and helpful. They also do mail order and have a web site ( all that publicity and i'm not even employed by them

 

Can you mount a 190 on the back? The stock comes with a 180 and that is what i got, but i think i heard you could fit a 190 on the rims and i wish i went that route. The width of the 190 makes it look so much more badass...

 

I have the dunlop qualifiers and they do there job, Im happy with them, and if a 190 will fit on the back then that will be my next tire size....

 

flip, for your type of riding, i would go with pirelli diablo stradas...
will give you great grip dry or wet and will last longer than any of those other tires.

 

I have Bridgestone BT014's (sport tire). on my f4 and I love them. They stick like **** and warm up fast. Not sure about milage though. I think next time I'm going to get the BT020's the sport touring tire they will last longer and my buddy who had both on his bike says he didn't notice much diferance in handling.
