Brands which is best for grip?? pirelli, Michelin, Metzler. have talked to a few bike shops they all say difrent things.// as u do.

the size's i need are a 110/80-17 and a 150/70-17

the more grip the better, need to be good in wet as well as dry.

i ride around town just as much as on the open road.


My gut fealing is michelin but thats becaue i know the brand name well not because i know lots about tires... as far as which model from those brands i dont know...


Thanks in advanse guys and girls.. (thanks for the advice about the ear plugs i got some from nz safty 32/36db atenuwation)

Do a search of the old treads this topic has been covered many times, I checked the dunlop site but they didn't have anything sticky for your bike.

Check out the Michelin Pilot Activ.

Perfect for your bike I reckon. Not super sticky but grippy enough to be fun and get reasonable mileage.
