Seems like the Z6 is the winning tire so far....

I do all kinds of riding, just like the bike wants too.
Riding though the twistys hard, Riding in the rain "two up" coming home from a trip and communting to work.

Now the question is ... where shall I get them from???

I need new tires .. what do you suggest

Ok, I went for my annual safety check and the inspector said I need new tires, especially the front one. It looks like shingles and is almost to the wear mark.

What brand, model tires do you guys suggest?

Thanks!
