New Tyres, new handling?

[Dave Hall]

I`ve had Trailwings on my 2001 1150GS and found them very good.
I had a Bridgestone 020 on the back and it was very grippy..could`nt fault it.(for a road tyre)

I`m a fat twat and have to confess that the Tourances have been quite good as well. I`ve never had a moment with them and I`ve often had to lift my feet out of the way when cornering.
Not much good in the mud though or on wet grass.

I`d like to try Anakees next.

My twin spark came with Trail Wings from new, Ive done 5500km,s and there about half worn.
In the dry there great ,I was told by other GS riders that they where crap but in the dry I can get the left foot peg on the deck . It ,s only at this angle that they start to let go ,but it hasn,t left a brown mark in my pants.
In the wet every one is right there crap, I,ve never lost the arse of a bike so many times even when I,m taking it easy.I,ve had it spin up in third in a straight line.
They inspire absolutely no confidence in the wet.
For dry grip I,ve been recommended Anakee,s , I,ve tryed Tourances in the wet and dry with no major problems but it wasn,t my bike so I wasn,t trying too hard.
If I lived in the land of the eternal rain cloud Brigestones would be my last choice.
