Anyone have any input on these tires? They are a little cheaper than the Powers and I guess they are supposed to last longer, but how sticky are they?

good touring tires, good milage. not as sticky as Powers, i would not put them on a sportbike used for serious corners. i rode an ST1300 with them on it and they do slide alot.

I have a set on an Aprilia that I just got and I'd have to say they're pretty good. Certainly good for street duty, but I've not had them on a track. The front end feels pretty vague with them

My favorite tire in this category is the Metzeler Z6 roadtec. Plenty sticky and seems to last a very long time.

I guess a better question would have been is there a tire out there that is good for commuting, but also good for the canyons? Keeping in mind I am an edge to edge rider (on the tire). I am currently running Pilot Powers and I love them, just looking for something that might last a little longer, but still be sticky enough for a good day in the twisties.
