I've used tourances since I bought the bike in 2008. (Except for when I'm off roading with proper knobblies) not noticed any difference in the tyres and didn't even notice when changed to made in china. I have a set of pirellis on one of my TL's made in china. Nothing wrong with them.
Just ride it.
Used Tourances since 2007 up until now, recently fitted a new set. Zero issues. I'm not a gp rider so don't really need supersticky sporty tyres. I find them a good all round tyre.

Same as. I do get a clip on sometimes and have never found the tourances wanting. I can also get up to 7-8.000 miles from a set. The fronts seem to wear out as quick as the rears. And even when it's really worn on the front edges they have loads of grip. I've had the front tyre go bald on the sides before with loads of centre tread left.
