After wearing out the OE Metzlers 6650m front 3550 rear Ive fitted Pirelli Diablos (£185 fitted) I will report any benifits over the Metzlers wet/dry.

your right
the back was completely shagged coming back from Devon on the M27 it had no rubber left down the middle and the sides down to 2mm front was down to 1.6 but the profile was good still well impressed.
Only just made it home legally,bike was booked in for new tyres before the hols but i didnt expect to do so many miles.
thats the trouble with the BCR i just want to keep riding ive done more miles on the beemer in 4 months than ive done in the last 2 years.
