    Yep I may have misread it or they've changed their site. I thought it said "designed in Japan and made in USA" before.

    Still not buying them...

    They didn't try to sell them to me and didn't claim any thing
    Was very disappointed in the Dunlops I had, rear gone at 3000k

    So far seem OK (100km) but I am not a hard rider and havnt tried them in the wet

    will update
    dunlops are shit, i changed mine to 003 shinkos.
    they were better than the stock DRZ-SM tires

    Also one of the Cycletreads guys (the one riding the daytona 955) said that he will take them to the next taupo track day and trash them coz they are letting him have them for free as a test.

    Will be interesting to hear his opinion.

    You never know. They might actually be freakin awesome. Good to have other people try them out first tho

    Looking forward to seeing how they go on the track as that's a fairly tough test.

    Ive got the M1 STREET SPORT RADIALS

    Full bore update

    First
    I am no expert and do not pretend to be
    so dont complain to me if you disagree with my review

    update on Full bore M1 STREET SPORT RADIALS
    I have now done about 800 k and tyres going well have rode in all conditions except downpour, snow and ice(which I generally avoid if poss)

    Tyres are wearing well and I haven't had any "moments" like I had on the dunlops
    IMHO if you want a touring tyre seem good for the price. I am building confidence on them the more I ride on them and havnt found the limit yet (Im not a nana but Im not a flat out hoon either)

    Will report back on longevity when they are due for replacing but that may be a while as I might head for asia for a few months

    i'm guessing you havent taken them for a proper trash on a nice fine day on your favourite roads with only 800ks put on them ...

    can you update us when you do 3000 - 4000km how they look, fee, wear and ride please ?

    A KB racer will be riding on them at an upcoming trackday, and will race on them if he thinks they are any good.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
