I had to get rid of my OEM Dunlop in the rear because they got a hole in them about 3 months after I got the bike....figures...lol. Anyways, after that happened I stumbled apon a Metzeler M3 and I bought it....I have been riding that tire for over a year now and haven't had a problem with it. And I ride my bike everyday....it's my only transport...lol. It grips good...warms up fast and it kinda soft so it doesn't puncture that easly. Idk...that's my opinion. Ride Safe!!!

I've had my M3's on for a couple months now and couldn't be happier with their performance. Except for the fact that I had to replace the front tire after 1 day due to a piece of metal or glass in the road. Gotta love replacing a tire with 80 miles on it. :curse

i love mine, great traction and awesome tread life, also work very well in the corners, i feel very confident going as low as i want on it

The Metzler M3's are decent tires, but if you compare them to Pirelli Corsa 3's, or even Dunlop qualifiers, you will see there is a huge difference. The Pirelli Corsa 3's are just amazing street tires!
