Sumitomo HTR Z II 225/60ZR/16 98W UTCG:360AA $74.42 @ TireRack




Running 38 psi. Preload @ #1. 200lb rider.
You could cross country back and forth on a single tire! If you pull a trailer, this is a very good choice.
If you carry a passenger often, this is a good choice. Increase your preload to #3. Your passenger will appreciate the softer ride.
Did I say it looks Koooool

I cant fully remember - about 17-18 thousand kms. But I do like corners.

At teh time - I was doing a lot of runs on Madrid's outer ring road motorway. Basically lent to teh left all teh way there and lent to the right all the way back - And not slow.

That's still double of what any other tire will give with BarbaGris on the handlebars.

I have a brand new one of these ready to put on.
Can't tell what the wear indicators are. Is it that wedge thing inside the groove on the right side about 2/3 down in the picture?
