Re: Tire replacement choice ??
I have tried the S22's and they worked good. I am not sure on life on them as I swapped wheels and tires when they were still good. Probably 2000 miles and still had good tread on them.
I put Power GP's on the new wheels and got almost 4000 miles out of the rear and put a new one on. The front is about 1/2 or a little less tread. This included some passes on the Drag strip and a few sessions running slow advanced pace at a track day. Rear was done only due to squaring off and low tread in the center of the tire. Kansas flat straight roads tend to do that.

I tried the perelli diablo supercoras because I love them on all my other bikes but absolutely hated them on this bike to the point im pulling them off before they are warn out and will save them for another bike
I felt like the sidewall was too soft and would distort causing the bike to have very unneutral/unnatural feeling. It would fall once off center especially 2 up and never gave me any confidence. I tried running the air pressure higher which helped some but I have never felt comfy on them on this bike
I just got a set of Bridgestone Battlax T32GT's to replace these. I wiill let eveyone know what i think one i get them mounted and get some miles on them .

Re: Tire replacement choice ??
A couple months ago I replaced the OE S21's with a set of T32's.
Great tyre with plenty of grip in all weather. Bonus being that it shouldn't wear out too quickly.

Just the regulars. The bike isn't really that much heavier than a Z1000SX after all, and nothing compared to a Goldwing.

yea I think I overthunk it with my experience with the super coras
I wouldnt consider the wing a sport tourer, which is what the tire is listed as

Re: Tire replacement choice ??
I had the Road 5 GT for my front tire, because they were out of the non-GT. It made zero difference, and the bike didn't need it. I imagine it's the same for the Battlax.
I know they are world's different, but the stock Battlax left a bad taste in my mouth. Curious to hear your review on these after you've thrown down some miles, but the Roads have been amazing, and taken all the punishment I've thrown at them.

Re: Tire replacement choice ??
Any run pirelli rosso corsa 2’s? Im currently running pirelli rosso 3’s. Great tires, currently have about 11,000km on them with life still in them. But on track, under hard braking, constantly feeling the abs kick in. Wondering if going to a more aggressive tire will help prevent abs from kicking in. Dont want to go to a supercorsa as ill only get like 5k on the streets.
