Metzeler RennSport Street Super Sports

not so good slow warm up

My XJR1300sp needed it's first set of replacement tyres in 2007. Having ridden the Michelins it came with I was blissfully unaware of the quantum leap in handling I was about to experience. I'm now on my 3rd set and wouldn't change them for anything else as long as these are still available.

I only ride from April to October, A roads, B Roads and the odd bit of Motorway but they make the XJR handle like a pussycat.

Great tyre in the dry but truly amazing in the wet.

I got caught in a storm while returning from a biking trip over seas and had to ride the last 200 kilometres on a road where the road markings were under water.

Was doing around 150 kilometres an hour the whole way and had absolute confidence in the tyre.

Fantastic grip even while cornering.

These Metzeler RennSport Street Super Sports tyres are awesome. I bought these brand new and spent approx 100 miles scrubbing in and never once did they make me feel that they were slipping. Total confidence at all lean angles....

If you want a set of really sticky, confidence inspiring tyres then buy these... You won't be dissapointed.

I just lurve Metzeler RennSport for the summer, not much use in winter but these tyres will outgrip all but rossi or stoner when warm and juicy ,good warm up time and dont wear too bad either, I had an rs2 front standard road rear on my rsvr factory, ps they are the same tyre as Pirelli supercorsa they just go down the other side of the factory.
