Avon Storms
I had Avon Storms installed today. Could not believe how much that handling improved. I use my bike as a daily commuter and for long distance trips. The storms are suppose to be a sport touring tire I will see how well they do in the 4 thousand miles and let you all know. What tire are the rest of you long haulers using, and how well do they perform. I have used Pirelli Stradas on my ZX7R and they seemed to handle long miles just looking of any other recommendations if the storms don't hold up like I would like.

try the tomahawk T-3... for the price, if you wear them out inside of 4,000 miles you can buy another lol. The rear is $105 shipped. I've got around 3500 miles on mine right now and it's not to the wear bars yet.

I have had Storms on since March. Love them. Great wet weather tire as well. (kind of important up here in the PNW) I believe I have about 7000kms on them. (4200 miles) Started with 8/32" of tread depth. Down to 4/32" Best 1/2 is over but still lots of riding left. Still feel great.
No drag strip work though. Just ride the bike and take trips. Leave the stunting to others.
