" Overall great tire, heats up quick. Pros: Great tire, used on the street in dry/wet pavement works well. Took the bike to the track on this tire as well and world of a difference from the Battlax BT15 tire. Also ran a track day with initial damp pavement, no problem. Cons: If you're in the intermediate group at the track, don't user this tire. "

I love these tires
" Will most def keep these tires on the bike. They suit me very well and are greatly priced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pros: Excellent dry traction. Warms up within a couple miles. Great when raining. Did 80 + on a straight and had no problems. Front has about 7000 and has a ton of tread left. Rear has 7000 but is getting the flat spot from riding thru town to work and back. Should be able to get another 2500 at least. Cons: None so far....... "

great tire
" no problems w/ slippage on this tire, warms up quick and rolls over nice in the corners, i just wish the tri angle would never wear out. too much highway riding for me to keep it peaked up. great tire w/ 6k on it now and will get prob another 2 before i have to replace. Pros: great feel when first on, i love the way it wants to fall over in the corners. Cons: none "

" I chose this over the pilot power because people we're complaining about the lack of feel the michelin has. I wouldn't be any happier. This tire is absolutely fantastic, did slip on me at lean the other day, well not slip but i felt it. Probably still a bit cold and cold roads. Pros: -Warms up within a mile or so. -Has so much feel even when cold. -Have about 7000mi on my rear tire and about 7700 on the front. Rear was replaced because of a nail with 700mi on it. Replaced this one at 11,000 at about 18,xxx. -Perfect wet traction, can cruise at about 80 on the highway in pouring rain with no problems. Cons: None whatsoever. "

" I have got a flat on my Triumph Speed Triple and needed a replacement. Did not have a chance to test it on a wet pavement. This is the original tire set supplied by the manufacturer. No experience with other brands with this bike. Pros: The tire works well in dry conditions. Cons: '0' up to now. "

My 1st set, and I'm sold for life
" Recommend them, again, and again. I am happy with the tire enough to say I will buy again pending how long they hold up. I'll be happy with 6000 plus miles. Pros: For the money, these tires out performed the Dunlop max I've been riding on in years past. Minor break in, decent warm up time and able to handle the power of my YZF 600. Driving habits are mostly city and country roads. I feel stable and confident. Cons: Feels little soft at full lean, but could be still breaking in. "

Great affordable sport tire
" Pros: This tire is great, I ride fairly hard on the street and I've never had it slip on me. The tire makes my bike very flickable and feels very stable in the turns. You can't get a better tire for this price. "

Ridiculously good
" I have not worn through an entire set yet, but I've run about 3900 miles on the front, it has half of its tread left. The rear was replaced after 2000 miles due to a wood nail, and the new one is showing good wear after another 2000 miles. I am opting for the Pirelli Rosso out of curiosity, but will return to the Metzeler if those tires do not impress me. Pros: Incredible warm-up time, excellent traction, possesses a multi-radial profile that provides a better contact patch as you approach full lean. Tires quickly return to optimal grip after a short stop, and the rear tire is optimized for literbikes (190 profile) I ride a GSX-R 1000, and have only had it slip once during a hard lean, because of sloppy throttle control on my end; the tire regained its composure before I had time to react. Both tires provide wonderful feedback, especially the front under hard braking. I can consistently read what the tires are doing, and am not left feeling doubtful, especially in the twisties. Greatly improved over the M1s, and those were great tires for their time. Cons: Tires seem to lose a few pounds (2-3 PSI) after hours of hard riding, but it's not a big issue. Mileage is not as good as its predecessors (M1s), but this model favors grip over tread life. "

Far superior than a stock Dunlop!
" Heres a comment for ya on how good these tires are. A whitetail slammed into the side of me-at full lean-and I did not crash!! Check out the pics on Myspace. Look me up and we can hookup! -Muzzyman Juggernut- Pros: The term "warm up" need not apply! When I leave work, I pull out of there like a rockstar-leaned over and nailing it-just a little wiggle-wiggle and I'm gone! It's all throttle control baby! I had two sets of the M-1's and I'm on my second set of the M-3's and I get about 6K out of them. These tires don't square off on the sides either. Also, I don't throw it sideways anymore when shifting from 1st to 2nd while leaned over. Those junk Dunlops nearly put me down several times doing that. Just to let you know, I ride a 150 rwhp Ninja ZX9-R. Cons: None . "

Track or Street- One of the best!!!
" Pros: I can't say enough great things about this tire. I have used these on both the street and track, and I have never encountered one problem with them. On the track, I have never experienced any movement through the corners. They heat up extremely fast and maintain a high level of grip when ridden at track speeds for a long period of time. The last about 500-600 miles on the track which can last a full season depending on how many track days I attend. They wear evenly and maintain grip throughout the tire's life. The price is right- you won't be dissapointed. Cons: I wish they lasted indefinately, but no tire does. "

" For the price its a good tire, I am an above average rider that pushes these beyond their limits, the Michelin 2CT will be my next choice as I still cannot confidently go into a tight corner and expect these to hold. Pros: Good warmup and treadwear stick pretty good when HOT Cons: They have pushed on me several times when I came hot into a corner, and once the front completely gave out on a corner when it really shouldn't have. Has made me nervous ever since. "

" Pros: excellent tire, much improved over the m-1's quick warm-up and great feed back. no tendency to swirm on grooved payment (wouldn't be grooved if the squids just killed themselves or stopped riding). hopefully they'll last 7k like the m-1's "

Sticky buns
" Pros: great tires! Was torn between these and the Mich PP, but when they recently had a recall on the Mich PP, I went with these. Works great! They're allowing me to slowly push my lean closer to the ground. Got caught in the rain yesterday and I have to say they had great great in the rain, especially when I hit the puddles on the turnpike, and I was doing about 95 mph! Here in SOLFLA its always hot so "warm-up" is not a problem. Heard they're predecessors wear quick, but I'll have to wait and see how these do. I commute about 140 miles daily. Cons: Hopefully I wont find any!!!! "

great tires
" I think this is a great tire and would recommend it to anyone. I previously had the metzeler sportec M-1s and there are noticable improvements to the M-3. They broken in quickly, warm up quickly and grip is excellent. i'm very please with these tires. Pros: quick break in and warm up. excellent traction in steep lean angles and fast drop points Cons: wet traction is still good, but not as strong as the M-1's "
