Cold wet weather tyres

sorry guys - back to tyres

I have loved Pilot Roads 1 & 2 on other bikes but the PR3 were not so confident so I have gone to Metzeler Roadtec01 on my 1200s

Only done 70 miles but the profile is sweet it rolls into bends (and back out) so smooth and light, steers nice and precise around road-**** and potholes
Feels much more accurate and controllable than the Diablo Rosso. Also no difference in road-feel on wet roads when we hit a cloudburst (bloody April!).

The road seems bumpier so i think the sidewalls may be stiffer - lets see how they go
