Bridgestone T31s.

End of discussion. If anyone tries to tell you anything else, they're wrong.


Or as the cat in the hat would say . . . .

You're not just wrong, you're stupid.
And you're ugly.
Just like your mom!

Always found it advantageous to keep em rubber side down (y).
on more serious note fitted a pair of Avon Sprint STs last year, can’t comment on mileage yet but if they’re anything like the Avon Storm 3dxm’s they replaced I’ll be happy, good roadholding and feedback on them as well, and I do chase mates on sportsbikes so tend to ride with ahem, enthusiasm at times :).

Check manufacturer's web sites whichever brand you chose.
Fair to say they should know which particular tyre. Generally heavyweight tyre particularly if you are going loaded.

Interested in your thoughts on tyres
It is worth mentioning Donk, that if you post stuff on the coffee shop section it is open to abuse and piss taking.. If you post it in the help section no one can take the mick until the op has been answered to their satisfaction

In answer to your question, for me, and a lot of others, the Avon 3D are good.. one of the few tyres that were actually developed on big heavy sport tourer type bikes

That’s a bit rich coming from someone who carpet-bombed us with posts about Brexit bollocks for goodness knows how long!
Brexit facts.
Lots more. They're/we're on a steep learning curve judging by what I hear on news. (Not the Mirror/Sun)

And a lot of confusion. And it seems lies from the usual quarter.

That surprises me.
It looks like more people are interested here than there.
I'd be far happier if you returned to your Irish Tourist Board postings. At least they were worth reading. :eusa_whistle:
