These are good tires in the dry or wet but the front tires have developed cracks from the tread going into the tire wall on the right side of the tire. This is the second tire that is has happened to & I now feel that the front can no longer be trusted. I am going to try the supermaxx sport on the front to see how it performs, if not i will choose a different brand of tire.

Bought a matching set for my ZRX1100 having seen some good reviews. I've done 2600 miles this year, mostly in the dry (rarely wet). Very impressed. I've not yet had them slide or give any un-towards feedback at all, if you nail it hard out of a corner, they do sometimes squirm a little, but that's been a rare occurrence.

Most riding is done on country and A roads, with a couple of longer motorway trips. Not noticed any particular noisiness, and they track straight and true.

Overall, tons of grip (in the dry), I had no worries at all banging into corners (although I'm not a racer), and the front tire wear has been excellent, the rear is now worn down and is about to replaced, so relatively softish compound I guess. I'm putting another on to replace it.

I found that these tires have good traction wet or dry but they do have soft tread and the one thing that lets them down is the fast wear rate, used for commuting and only lasted 2217 miles until the centre was down below 1mm. I have previously used the similarly priced Continental Motion which lasted just over 4000 miles with the same use and I had expected similar wear rates on this tire. It has now been replaced with a Pirelli Diablo and I will see how long that lasts.

Great tires once scrubbed in . Great feedback . No slides even when pushing hard . I've used these on a VFR , a GSXR 750 & my 955i Daytona . Mostly in dry . Why pay more ??

These were already fitted to my Honda VFR 750 so I've had the latter half of their life to use them. A 60 mile ride home in torrential rain when I purchased the bike gave no sign of any scary happenings, but riding pace was comparable to cars so more cautious as it was a new bike to me and unknown territory. But I've since done 2200 miles on them, mostly in the dry and am very impressed. For every day use, commuting, A-roads and motorways and twisties these are fine. Not a single slip, I have provoked a couple of rear wheel wobbles, making the rear tire squirm and fight for grip while accelerating hard out of a sharp bend but it never stepped out or lost grip and I was fully provoking it. It gave excellent feedback!
This tire is one of the few that defies its low price and is honestly comparable to tires like Bridgestone BT-023's and Michelin Pilot Road 2's. But probably not quite as good as Michelin Pilot Road 3's and the new 4's as their wet road handling is another level. These are tho very good tires and will out perform most riders capabilities on the roads.

I live in New Zealand and its hard to find a set of tires here for less than $400 but i happened upon these maxxis m6029 tires for my bike for only $120 for the rear tire and $100 for the front. Scrubbed them in on a 30km ride on my fav twisty road right to the very edge and i have to say these tires are awesome. Not a hit of slip ( road was bone dry 25deg temps)and i was really moving. They felt good under me with a very secure feeling, but new tires always do compared to the stuffed old ones. They replaced some Pilot power 2ct tires and i kid you not these are better and less than half the price for the set. I ride hard 90% of the time and hardly ever take the main highway , always the back roads and right away these tires felt right at home on my bike in fact they felt so good i rushed out and brought a second set for when i wornout these ones. would i recommend these .... hell yeah go get your self a set and try em for ya self..... there as good as any road tire iv'e ever used and iv'e tryed them all , i own 5 bikes (All sport bikes) and im in my mid 50's but dont think for a second im slow..... excellent tires and after trying them even if they were the same price as the expensive tires i'd still buy them.... Im off for a ride catch me if you can...hehehe

Bought these tires after reading the reviews on this very site, also the price swayed me :). I have managed to get around 4000 miles from these tires with around half being motorway miles and half been local A roads around my home, after scrubbing the tires in first impressions were good, riding through summer they seemed to give plenty of grip allowing me to get my knee down and footpeg scrapping on most round abouts and suitable corners. They aren't fool proof and when really pushing hard out of a corner they do struggle a little and squirm around but I think that's to be expected, they are a budget tire after all. Wear seemed pretty good with no real squaring until around 2500 miles when I took the bike to the nurburgring via Belgium and France with the missus and luggage. The extra weight really seemed to kill the last couple of mm tread even when pumped up to correct pressure so not sure on suitability for heavier bikes, also found it to be dangerous in the wet when it had squared off but fine in the dry, overall a good tire that I'd use again unless planning another big trip

aprilia shiver 750 mounted and very happy with his dry grip and in water is a very decent tire

After reading may reviews on the suspiciosly unexpensive and very well rated on forums. one review of some pro-tester riding them hard on uphill corners I decided to try a pair. So far I have to say they exceed expectations I have driven them very hard(always dry cond., NOt in circuit)mostly in curves and some speedway(also mountain) 180-230kmh and I definetly will stay with them on the future. theyll give you confidence as you slowly ask more and more of them.tried many hard case tires on my heavy k12r08 and they are very impresive in how smooth and fast they move the bike.made 4000kms on them and they have thread for another 4000.as a supersport bridgestone 0116 or michelin power2ct last me 5-6000km im pretty confident thesee so called top brands benefit unreasonably on peoples fear of"I dont risk any chaces on trying anything else"mentalyty hell my budies ride as hard on trail tires on their GS!!!
