Tire Shopping

Lots of good choices out there.
FWIW, I`ve been running Metzeler`s for decades

OP if $522 OTD is balanced and mounted on the bike, then that's a buy in my book. I just paid $601 for that with the winter discount at my local dealer. If that price is just for the tires then you can do better.
I wore out my stock Dunlops in less than 8,000. I replaced them with the CII's and got double the mileage. For me the timing on the release of the CIII's was just about perfect so I pulled the trigger.
As for previously mentioned tire failure, that's very scary but all tires are going to have a certain failure rate and for me I trust the Michelins over the Dunlops. Really don't have any experience with other brands except Pirellis in my old flat tracking days, but that's going way back ha ha.
Me and little bro tearing it up!
