Hi All,
I thought I'd share. Last night I bought a set of new Metzler Z8 tires for our bikes from Motorcycle Superstore.
I got a front and rear tire for $300 and free shipping. I'm going to need new tires in about 2K miles, which for me is about 2 months. I was actually going to try the new PR3 tires but after reading the latest issue of BMW magazine it rated the Z8 significantly better than the PR3's for our bikes which they used for the tire testing, especially in the wet.
I've never had any negative issues with the Z8's that came with my bike. I've ridden in downpours with excellent stability and handling and I've commuted to work (96 miles round trip) in temps ranging from 29F to 96F.
