What kind of tires you running?

Avon Azaro's on the CBR and they work great. But I'm getting Avon's Storm ST's next time.

I've been using Metzeler's Laser, bias/ply, tube-type tires on my old GS1000 for many years. On a GS website, people are using Kenda tires or Cheng Shin tires. The main reason? Only $100/pair.

I couldn't believe it. I'd rather get premium tires and run them till they're bald than buy cheap tires. You look at any older bike around here and it has Metzeler's Laser front tire on it. I don't know, maybe because we have curves.
