Jeff Sluiter Rockford,  IL Z6 Sport Touring Front Tire This Metzeler tire is the best. It does everything I can ask of a sport touring tire in dry and wet conditions. Traction is always available.

Kevin Plummer Chesterfield,  VA Metzeler - Roadtec Z6 Front Tire I ride >10,000 miles a year. I usually get a full riding season from the Z6 without any major issues. The bike came with dunlops and ran ok. The Metzelers are superior tires. It's all I use on the street everyday. Kev Plummer '02 R1100RT 38,000 miles

Brian Parkton,  MD Metzeler Z6 I replaced the original tires on my '99 VFR with these and what a difference. I don't know if it's because the original tires were shot or if these tires are that good. The ride is ultra smooth, cornering and traction are great, and the bike rolls from side to side so easily. I've only put a few miles on them so I can't report on tread life. If the tread holds up, I'll definitely but them again.

David Collingwood,  MI 15,000 life span Great tire for sport touring, can get 16000 miles out of front, but then you are riding completely bald and with the grace of God. Below the wear bars riding in rain is real iffy.Change at or before wear bars are level with tread.

Jim Wonder Lake,  IL Zero Degrees is right! This is my 5th set of Metzeler's on my ST1100. The mileage isn't so great (5000 mi), but the grip is excellent! And even better is the feel of the bike with these tires. With the zero degree carcass, you can lean the bike at any angle, and it stays there. No dropping in or dipping too low, or fighting to keep it down. Makes the bike feel like a fighter jet.

Howie Holland,  MI As far as I know these tires are great. Installed on a 99 BMW K1200 RS. I have total confidence that these tires will stick for the purpose of my riding style. I don't have enough experience to compare to other tires. I hope to get over 6K out of them. Time will tell. 3 were recorded as it is too early to tell.

Dave Rice Austin,  TX Roadtec Z6 This was a very good deal on a great tire. I cannot comment on wet traction because I have not ridden in the rain and we shall see on tread life, so far so good. Very prompt delivery and very happy with the experience.

Lance Orick,  CA MeZ6 Tires These are the only tires I've run on my BMW R1150RT and I've been pretty happy with them. I've gotten between 8,000 and 12,000 miles on them, but of course, I wish I could get more. I put a lot of miles on my bike and I don't foresee me getting a different tire in the future.
