Adventure Bike Rider Forum

I'm going to Europe on the tiger1200, two up all the luggage for 3 weeks going to be doing roughly 5.5k miles , looking for tyres that will go the distance any help will be much appreciated

Road and trail riding, or just sealed Tarmac roads?
For road riding I'd suggest Bridgestone BT23's as they are a duel compound tyre

Just Tarmac looking for tyres to go the distance mileage wise , not looking to change tyres during trip

I had good results with Anakee 2 on my Tex (thumbs)

I usually go for round black ones but dont ride if theyre not pumped up properly, but its ok if theyre flat only at the bottom .. let me know how you get on

I'm planning on doing a 5k trip on my Explorer next month, one up but with too much kit. Currently have Anakee 3's, but wasn't too impressed with the wear on the front, so will be switching back to Anakee 2's.

Have an Explorer and would recommend Michelin Pilot Road 4's (if tarmac only).

Tex 66 I see the sense of humour hasn't improved over the years, ask a sensible question and get a hetton scrote #bellend

What mileage you getting?

I put the PR4's on over a year ago and have about 6K on them so far....they are slightly (and I mean slightly) squared on the rear and the front tread is still good, but I am getting them replaced for another set next week.

Mileage was done loaded for touring (or with my Missus as a pillion). Also some of the roads were in very bad nick.

I found the grip from them in both wet and dry, genuinely, phenomenal.
Hope this helps!!
