Just had a pair fitted on my 1050r today, the standard fitted Pirelli supercorsa were brilliant in the dry but never inspired confidence in the wet. Keep up the good reviews mate.

Love the M7RR. Apparently Tony Rutter did a 125mph lap of the IOM TT course recently them without warmers set at 35/32 road pressures.. Shame I scrape 3k from the rear...

Nice review mate, good intro :) I've got the metzeler sportec M7 RR's just now, get about 4k before the rear centre is dead, really nice tyre though. Thinking about Continental Road Attack 3's or the Metzeler Roadtec next to get a bit more milage.

Yep I've been using roadtec 01 for nearly 4 years now. And totally agree. You need to keep pressure up. On a tiger 1200 I use 42 rearand 36 front Yep the front is squaring of on mine but rear ok. Great tyres. Great review. I find you have to put 4 to 6 psi more than recommended.

Been enjoying your videos man! I might look up these tires in the states then and give them a try. Side comment: since I've watched your videos on my phone, the audio comes out through one speaker only. For example, hold the phone on portrait, top speaker. Landscape, bottom speaker. (iPhone 7+)

Arturo thanks man, yeah it does the same on mine. It’s because my microphone adaptor is buggered and GoPro have discontinued them for the Hero4, so the ones that are left have gone from £15 to £50!!! Finally got one coming though so hopefully will be sorted soon!

Great video man. I've recently had the PR4's on two bikes, got this Street Triple RX 675 with it's original Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa's still fitted and absolutely loved them on warm sunny days for grip. Worn out the rear and replaced with the non-Corsa Pirelli Rosso II and so far enjoying.. but questioning all-round grip. I'm not a super fast rider and generally want to ride in all conditions. Found myself considering these Roadtec 01's as tested by my family and friends on other bikes, think they felt best on the FZ8 over the heavier bikes. I'm torn between either the 01's or PR5's, but feel the PR5's are just a bit TOO wet-weather focused for what I want to do - dare I say it I'm now a more fair-weather rider purely down to time and how I plan my weekends! What are you running on your Speed Triple now since this Roadtec review?

@Coldfin9er6 жыл бұрын
If they still made PR3's in a 190/55 I'd buy them, best tyre IMO, but the fuckers don't. 4's were just shit and a big letdown. Matey at work just slapped on a set of Road5's on his S1000R and so far he is loving them, he was into the PR3 prior too and says definitely on par. Be interested to see if they last as well. I'm currently on S21's on the Superduke and while they are good in the shite weather, they just don't last, under 3k on the last rear and the front is almost toast at 5k. Torn between the Road5 or the Roadtec for its next boots, leaning towards the Road5 TBH.
@DaytonaDays6 жыл бұрын

Side Bob billy absolutely, still good for summer months as well. Obviously won’t give you the grip that something like a Rosso 2 will in the summer months, but you can still have a good time on them and wet weather performance is awesome

Great review! I've got them for about a year now on my 675STR and they've been mostly just like you've said. Love them, specially during winter and first 9 months... But now I can feel the difference compared with the stock Pirelli's (during summer) on dry mountain roads, in the sense they don't stick quite as much. But like you said, that's to be expected. Might sound silly but... Do you use the tyre pressures recommended by Triumphs' owners manual or do the tyres themselves have a different recommendation? Cheers!
