So i need a new set of tires still have factory after 7600 miles. I did a search and looked hard but couldnt really find anything on here so sorry if this questions has been talked about tons but need to know what tires are the best. I live in MN so the weather isnt always good with rain or sand or even snow sometimes on the roads, so need something to have good tractions in all weathers. Any help would be great thanks.

 

I got the Pilot powers and love them. Great traction in the rain or dry ground and I also havent seen any abnormal tread loss over the 4000 miles I have had them.

 

Good price for those Pilot's?

 

i just put on Pirreli DIABLO Corsa III and way better then stock tire grips very good and warms up quick to

 

I wanted extra life on mine, so I went with the Pirelli Diablo Strada's. Took a little getting used to but I wouldn't go back now.

 

I got Bridgestone Battlax bt-021's they are a "sport touring" dual compound tire with a high wear compound in the middle and a soft sticky compound on the shoulders. So far they ROCK in rain dry roads and sand, I have all three as well. I rode them hard as **** on Saturday and Sunday, and I didn't feel like I was ever gonna slip out, unless I was downshifting in the middle of a turn. So far I love these tires and will continue getting them as long as the mileage lasts as long as they claim, I do a lot of flat road riding commuting to work and back so we will see. They are excellent for my riding style.

 

brad sounds like we commute the same. Its usually a straight shot for my jobs so having a good high wear compound in the middle is good to hear. and the way the ride in the conditions is great to hear.

USA what do you mean it took some time to get used to?

 

I use the Pirelli Diablo as well and i love them

 

When I took off my stock Qualifiers, there was a nice flat spot in the middle from all my riding to/from work/school from the highway. So when I got new tires, they were more rounded, almost elliptical at the middle, so it took some getting used to, to get back to the point where I felt comfortable slinging the bike from side to side.

 

Oh ok i get it now. Was thinking that the tired compound felt a lot diff like it was way stiff or soft feeling at first
