I guess it's only fair to add that I test rode a Glee with Trailwings on it and they were fine while the sun was shining (...while I was nailing it.) I even played around with the ABS with them on and I was quite impressed with the ABS, that ride helped change my mind about motorcycle ABS (previously I was quite anti ABS.) Sunny weather turned to a light rain near the end of test ride and I could tell the Trailwings weren't happy on the damp road. They weren't near as bad as the ones on longman's bike (even though his tyres looked fine and he was happy with them at the time
) The ones on the Glee definitely didn't turn as easily as my Anakees, but that's a profile thing mostly. I've heard that they get bad once they've worn a bit, the ones on the Glee were new, the ones on longman's bike were older. Or maybe the compound changed sometime or another during their life?
In the end, if you're happy with them then everything's peachy
I might be going for Michelin PR3 tyres next myself. I will soon be doing a 120 mile a day commute again and changing tyres around twice a year, or more (meh
)
