Made the switch this week
Nomad Sat Jul 31, 2010 7:57 pm
Made the switch last Saturday, got tired of changing three to four rear tires a year, sometimes in the middle of a trip.
BMW R1200RT running a 175/80R15
Sweet spot 35 psi and can not feel a difference between it and the Dunlops and Metlers I have been running.
1200 miles this las t week, 1000 miles next week then off to monument valley Aug 7
will run over 8000 miles in 3 weeks, would wear out an MC tire, see what this CT will do.

1400 miles so far
35 PSI seems to be the sweet spot
actually runs quieter than the MC tires
Headed for Colorado and Utah Saturday morning.
