You know what - that link for the presentation and the link in the tire
catalog were not there when I looked around 2PM EST yesterday.  Just checked
it out - very cool.  I hope they live up to the hype.

Matt,

Metzeler's home page, http://www.metzelermoto.com/#, has a link with quite a
presentation on the Z6.

Motorcycle Consumer News, I believe, had a short review of them about a
month ago.  They liked them, but couldn't substantiate Metzeler's claims of
greatly increased wet weather performance.

I have a riding buddy who very recently put a set on his beemuh, but haven't
heard his verdict yet...
