The only tires I ride on, for the past three bikes, are Pirelli MT66 Route tires. Had them on a 1983 Kawasaki 440 LTD, a 1979 Honda CB750K, and now my 1993 Voyager XII. Only thing I will ride on.

Rode two-up, in Canada, in the rain, for four days, on the Honda. It was overloaded, for the tour, a 1,935 mile trip circling Lake Superior from our home in SE Minnesota. That bike was glued to the road on those Pirelli's! Ran 60 MPH, leaning in the curves, to make time in the rain, as we were suffering hypothermia... Never had a traction issue.

Put them on the Voyager, have ridden in the rain, repeatedly, without ever a slip, or slide. Love these tires! I won't ride on any other tire, until the stop making these...

Search the Internet for other customer reviews. I have not come across anything negative on these tires yet, and I've been running on them since around 2008. Cheers!
