Weird. I ordered from JW yesterday too. Wonder if they will be here by the time I get home...

I'm trying the newer Metzler M7RR on the K bike.

Yea here are the 4 tires. Image

I like the look of the Avon Trailrider tires. We will see how they work.

I still have a ride or two left on the TKC70's.

I do need to put the Pilot Power 2CT's on the SV as the old ones are gone!

The first set was 3,600... cupped badly. Now I've got 2,300 miles on this set and the front is starting to cup too.

You got some big rubbers there, man. You know how to use em?

I haven't seen Michelin PP 2CTs in a while. I didn't know they still made them.

Steve if you look at the four tires I just got (picture above) you will see that there are 2 PP 2CT's for my SV650.

You're faster than a scalded dog going downhill NC-181 on those TKC70's! That's been my general experience with Conti's. They don't last very long but they sure are fun!
