Great grip wet and dry on the Tail of the Dragon. Handled the dirt Cherohala trail like a champ. Great tire that seemed to wear very well during the 1250 mile trip.
I'm a motorcycle technician retired. Been riding motorcycles for 52years. High performance sports bikes.
I demand traction and performance. Now into adventure bikes. 2013 BMW R1200GS . Tried 50/50. And 70/30. Going to knobbys now off road performance over rides pavement. These are 40/60. Tread is formidable. And compound soft. This Tire is absolutely amazing. Off road adventure riding. Best yet . Pavement its like being on a racing tire. You could do track days on this tires. Wet traction is unbelievable. I've been on hiedindau Michelin anakee both Adventure and Wilds.
I have friends who run this tires. now I'm sold. I ride off road alot and pavement too. Fast.. 2up most of the time. These tires are great at everything. Only 1 flaw is milage.. but who cares.
At the price it is worth it.

I ride a bmw gsa 1200rt. I ride aggressively both on and offroad. This tire is nearly silent and without vibration from the tread, amazing. I liked it so much i immediately bought another. I have already put 1000 miles on it and much less wear than i expected to see.
