I'm facing a little problem here at the moment.
I need a new rear tyre, but the Metzeler ME88 I used so far is not in production anymore, and dealers don't have them in stock either.
As I'm living in Germany I am only allowed to use either a Bridgestone combination (100/90-19 57s G523 TL and 140/90-15 M/C G524 TL) or a Dunlop (100/90-19 57H F11 TL and 140/90-15 70H K527 TL Dunlop) apart from the Metzelers.
I'll have to buy a new front tyre as well eventhough it is almost new because front and rear tyre must be from the same manufactorer.
I've no experience with neither the Bridgestone nor the Dunlop, so I need your help.
If someone has used the described tyres plz tell me what they were like, stuff like Grip (warm(+35°C)/Cold (-10°C)/wet/dry, how many miles do they last, cost, and so on....
everthing you can tell me is of great interest
thanks
