I too had the Roadtec 01's on my 2019 R1250GS and agree totally with your comments, superb tyre, but do flat quite quickly. Last time I needed tyres (due to a lack of Metzler availability locally) I swapped to PR6's and have to say I'm happy with them - I'd say grip is comparable to the Metzlers and now they are about half worn through, the flatting is not too bad.I have the Metzler Roadtec 01 superb in the wet and fine for dry even being a bit nippy. My comment would be they wear quite quickly and flats appears. A personal view is the GS is too heavy for them. No idea what the Roadtec 02's are like but I shall probably refer to this topic when I need to replace my tyres. The bike was fitted with anakeers when new and they were ok. I do not go off road, or very rarely down a rough small side road
Got mine fitted this morning at St. Neots. What a place! Cheers Marky.Where did you get those fitted Marky?

Apart from being wheeled in/out of the garage my new tyres are untouched..Good to know and a nice run back to Northampton to scrub them in.
Loose wheels for me too, pissing down all day yesterday.Good to know and a nice run back to Northampton to scrub them in.

I had the pulling with the pr6s, I also switched to scorpion 2 and got on quite well with them.Trail Attack is one of the top tyres for GS.
Road 6 has known issues in size for GS (bike pulls left, slight speed wobble on higher speed).
I've had Road 6 for about 1 month and had to take them out (because of the issues) and replace them with Pirelli Scorpion Trail 2.
I agree!TA3. Brilliant tyres
Brilliant & Quiet tyres!TA3. Brilliant tyres
On my second set of mutants, not the cheapest, quiet and predictable and I find them very good in the wet.Gonna throw another into the mix here. Just put Dunlop Mutants on mine, and really liking them so far - incredibly quiet, very precise and neutral handling - quick without being twitchy or tipping in. I've not tested them in the wet, though they have a very good reputation in that department. We'll see.
