Quote from: Djairouks on October 26, 2018, 17:09:57You know lately I bought a 2nd mistress and old love of mine from Yamaha, a Fazer 8 to do everyday riding, it is better to me on highways.So it led me to compare handling capabilities and while the position and ergos are of course totally different, I feel on the Yamaha I am in total control, meaning I can also do crap.On the Honda, I feel more ease it's less physically engaging, but I also feel a kind of "autopilot" factor, where it takes the lines without me working and sometimes I would rather place the motorcycle myself in turns.Not sure this is relatable to any of you, but is this a tire brand feel, because I've only used continental on the Honda and the Yamaha always Dunlops. Or is this just the 21 to 17 inch front feel !?I'm contemplating eventually changing to 19rims, so this interests me !Do not know you've changed the bike... sure a lot of elements, geometry of the frame, size of the wheels, manufacturer of the tires; an AT can be very different with different tires; so comparing different bike is much difficult; but it's why there is a choice of different models took recently a Crossrunner during the AT's revision; and very difficult for me with 17" front wheel; and it was difficult to retrieve the 21" on the first turns ... So yes each element have its matter , (IMO). And you've to choose which are the best for you ...

Have put some more kils on my anakee wild this WE. Tried twisties roads, and (for instance) not so confident as with TKC70; not so precise in driving turns.In off road condition obviously perfect; we've ride rocks (not so hard), tracks with a lot of dead leaves and melting snow; I was every time in confidence, bike stay (quietly ) every time where I want she was; and fabulous traction every time ...
How fast they wear out?

Landed on this tire today while looking for winter stuff, maybe Norwegians and Finns know about it.http://www.anlas-tyres.co.uk/winter-grip-plus-tested-on-africa-twin-sport/
