And welcome

Thanks for any input. I guess the Motorrad report I quote here: http://www.adventurebikerider.com/forum/9-the-pub/239761-tyre-reviews.html#239858 might give some pointers to relative tyre wear, though I don't think they'll do a few thousand kilometers up and down the motorways. And to be fair, not ...

I expect the coast road will be very busy with hordes of caravans and campervans, so will be challenging making progress. Inland Croatia including the Plitvice Lakes is pretty, but the lakes can also get very busy. Last year we visited Split and Zadar, both very nice places. We're hoping to go down ...

I had them on my Gladius and wasn't that impressed, especially with regards to squaring off and mileage acheived on them.
