Re[2]: [ST] Azaro II on rear

[mfay@xxxxxxxxx (Martin Fay)]

Has anyone any views on tyre brand wet weather performance.
     Well I can vouch for the wet weather performance of both the Azaro II 
     and Azaro Sport II. The Azaro II appears to clear a lot more water but 
     the Grip from the Sport II is astounding. It is possible the lay the 
     bike right over in the wet without losing traction and with the Sport 
     II on the ST you can really feel the tyres working for grip so it's 
     easy to determine the wet weather limits. It doesn't have dry weather 
     limits that I can find :)
     
     Last Sunday I was out with an instructor taking an advanced riding 
     course. The instructor is the guy that trains the trainers so he can 
     certainly handle a bike! On a wet twisty section while under 
     instructions to 'make progress' I completely lost the instructor. I 
     waited in the next town and when he arrived he wanted to know about 
     the ST and the tyres. He reckoned I was laying the bike down sideways 
     while he was struggling for grip in the wet. He went home considering 
     Azaros and the possibility of trading his European twin for a British 
     Triple :)
     
     'nuff said,
     Howlin'
