Front is noisy on 800gs and rear squares off quickly, Conti trail attack 2`s on S10 rear lasting well but front can be noisy as well :silly:johnnyboxer wrote:Noisy on the road, though.................on a GSA :whistle:Redmurty wrote:Anakee 3's will give you loads of grip in wet or dry and decent mileage (thumbs)

If your not going to go down any mild tracks don't consider TKC 70S they are not in the same league as the PR4s on the road
I have had two sets of TKC70s on mine this year and have gone back to Anakee3's
I was getting bored of the weave you get on the TKC70s when your on a private road getting a wiggle on
The PR4 Trails are spot on in the bad weather as well never heard any one complain about them (thumbs)

I'm not gunna recommend any particular tyre, but for the use you've quoted you will find Road Tyres far superior to any serious dual sport type tyre.
They will track with greater precision, be quieter & grip better wet or dry.
Most brands have very good road tyres so take your pick.

Thanks Everyone,
I'm going to try Front Continental Conti Road Attack 2.
As some guys mentioned everyone has success and shit stories when it comes to how their tyres have performed.
Thanks for all your pointers and advice.

I'm a mitas convert. Not on a GS but on the 950 adv s. It distroyed the first five tyres I put on it in less the 4000 km each. The mitas e07 I have on it now are after crossing 10,000 Kms and have about 1000 left on them. Might be worth a look. Their cheap then the rest to.
