Avon RZR / RZF

For anybody out there who may still be interested in tyre choices, I
recently fitted an Avon AV-RZR rear and AV-RZF front, both of standard
sizes.
These have a nice round profile (like the standard Azaro) which
results in steady and precise turn in. The sidewalls seem stronger
that the BTs and the bike feels more stable when cranked over at
speed. There is definitely more feedback from both ends, especially
the rear. All in all, the profile and construction seems to work very
well with the standard suspension.
Most impressive of all though is the grip. These things stick like a
sticky thing using super glue to stick itself to something sticky! I
have yet been able to provoke a slide from either end under road
conditions. Wet or dry, they're unshakeable.
It's still too early to comment on durability but I guess that 2000 -
2500 miles would see the rear in the bin; Much less if you're trying
really hard. My TL could chew an RZR(rear) in 750 miles.
If you're interested in grip and handling over longevity then give
them a try. You won't be dissapointed.
Martin,
Ireland
