When I returned to riding after a 20 year absence (family) a trusted friend recommended the Michelin PR2 for my sport bike (VTR1000). The tire's performance was beyond my own. Then for "touring" I chose the PR3,4,5,6 for the FJR. I have always wondered about the real difference between sport and touring. Just returned from a 4800 mile trip (Mexico-Canada) and I rode the FJR to my limit. R6GT. 40/42. Stable at 110mph, cornering as hard as I dared. Long lasting tires? Who cares. BTW, my 4 riding buddies on the trip had car tires on their Gold Wings. Neither could I corner with them nor (choose to) keep up with their 90mph standard cruising speed. We had some great roads. That's a real world report on the car tires. They love them and push them real hard. I'm sticking with the Michelins.</p></blockquote><p></p>
