Yes they are. I hope you have said hello to Mr Hitcher. He stills pines for that FJR you know.

They're available in New Zealand now. Those ones on your FJR were procured in Flagstaff Arizona. You may find it runs better on Avon Storm-STs. I did!

I don't have the mag with me at work, but the latest issue of BIKE has a "Best of 2008" section. The tyre winner was Dunlop Roadsmart.

When I've finished with my little Pirelli experiment (Pirelli Diablo Rosso were runner up in the article) I will seriously consider Roadsmarts.

If there's any problem getting the new Pirelli Angel ST it'll be a done deal.

I also have seen this in a mag somewhere. I was really keen to give them a go but went for the cheap deal of the Pilot Powers. I am keen to find out how they go:niceone:

I have got them on my RF, done 12000k so far but noticed the rear squaring off at about 7-8000k and front starting to wear badly on sides not long after that, tread just gone from centre of rear now at 12k, Think I might try some PR2's next.
