I used Roadtec 01s on my XR when I had it, so when I first needed to change tyres on my RS changed from the Z8s to the 01s and they have not worn well at all. I am about to get rid of them and will plump for the Road 6s I think.

PS. Coventry is a fine city, I won’t hear a bad word said about it!

So it is. And you'll not hear a bad word from me.

I'm surprised your 01's wore so badly. Mine have 5,500 miles of spirited canyon/mountain riding on them and are just now giving indications of wear requiring replacement in, perhaps, another 1,000 miles. How many miles did you get, and what kind of riding do you do...if you don't mind my asking? Thanks.

quite simple really, there is a lot of evidence that British humour involving irony is lost on the majority of US citizens. For example, the slapstick of Benny Hill was taken by your TV networks in its raw form. It's pretty universal, visual comedy and sold successfully worldwide in the context of the era it represented (would be considered unsuitable in the UK now). More recent UK shows like Skins, Shameless and Queer as Folk were re-written, using US locations and US actors as the UK settings and vernacular use of dialect and irony would not transfer. For these shows, you got the themes from the original rather than a script.

I just watched Benny Hill for the Boobs ..... lol

I think a lot of people on the forum have fitted them. Without exception they all pull to left like an absolute bastard (to the right in the Southern Hemisphere) which makes them almost unusable. I’ve had PR4s R5s and R6 on three different RS since 2015 and all of the versions have been rubbish! You’d think I’d have learned my lesson by now. I even got the dealer to remove some perfectly good Metzler Z8 from my 1250 when it was brand new to fit some of those dreadful R5’s before it left the showroom. What was I thinking?? In your case I would avoid them like the plague, those internet commentators have saved you making an expensive mistake.

That Aye Ronny bloke does not travel well, certainly not to NW USA

My ancestors were British, from Coventry. But too much time has elapsed and I wonder if you could translate that for me, sir. I suspect it was a euphemism for something that indicates a certain "backwoods mentality" in those who reside in that NW part of the country, but I know you'll set me straight. Thanks.

Well that as a lot more fun than a normal tyre thread! I did put a smiley face at the end of my post just in case anyone thought I was serious. I’ll add a ROFL next time. That should do it!

The initial RS forum before this one? Yes I was on that one before it vanished.
