Tyres

What tyre pressures do you guys recommend for Tourances front & rear?

Do you add pressure and lose it according to how you're riding (i.e. when riding two up, single with luggage or off-road?)

Dunlop TR91, used to have Tourances, tried those after a friend recommended them, have to admit that they are superb, little bit less in off road situations (compared to Tourance) but better on onroad situations!
They have excellent grip on wet and dry and on extreme lean angles!
Would recommend them and would gladly install them again!

Cant seem to find them in the UK tyre dealers, anyone else tried these or know where to get them, My rear tyre wont last a trip to Athens.

I find it strange, since this tire was developed and tested on GS bikes...

Conti Trail Attacks every time

Just put a set of the new Tourances on, feel fine, getting an acceptable amount of feel from them, grip seems OK wet and dry, no problem for me. See what the wear is like in a few months!

J-P you must be some kind of a nutter riding (no offence meant) or have a serious suspension fault on your bike I get at least 20K KMS from a back anakee and I've had a couple already.

That means four times more than you, I know you might think I am steady but believe me when I say I consider myself to advance at a steady rapid pace on most roads. I don't get overtaken much and the mileage I get from a GS tyre is twice as much as any bike I have previously owned.

J-P sorry you are not a nutter, my last Bridgestone is fcukd and that is at 2.5K Miles... I ride the same as always, just on different roads....

How are you?????

I absolutely agree! Best tyre I ever had on my GS. Lots of grip in dry and wet conditions! A+++

Do all on-road, tourance just getting to 1mm at rear, doing 10,000+ miles/ year on a mix of A and B roads, with a weekly 150 mile motorway run thrown in.

Works great on Tarmac.

Mostly in recent years I have been using Tourance. how ever I am going to have a go with a pair of Road attack 2's unless some more experienced sage berates and belittles me ??

I've tried Pirelli Scorpion, love those tyres especially on off-roads.
