New Metezler MME 880 WWW 4 Years, 5 Months ago
|
|
I just got my new tires and finished the 100+ mile break in and thought I would leave my review so far. #1 even if the tire guy cleans the blue $^%#*@ off the tire finish cleaning it thoroughly BEFORE riding home!  I got Blue #@*&# all over my bike and it doesn't come off without HOT water!!
I looked around for good prices but, once you add shipping the savings were gone. Found a local shop who only does motorcycle tires and got both installed on my bike for $420 OTD. Dealer would do it for $360 but, I had to bring the wheels off the bike (I'm too lazy) and it would take a week to get the tires.
I did notice that the ride of the tires is harder/rougher than mt OEM Bridgestones (yes I did have the correct tire pressure  ) The cornering on these tires is a lot easier almost too easy especially in parking lots  I find it easier to steer also. as far as sticking to the road it seems the same as my Bridgestones. Only have 150miles on them so far but I am pretty happy.

We like to do things in cycles in So Cal first some idiots light wild fires, burn down most of the state, The triggers a chemical reaction in the atmosphere and it rains then we get mudslides and flooding the grass grows back on the hills thicker than before it gets hot drys out and some idiots light it on fire.......
