I have one of these and I am pleased with it on the main roads. I use it on country lanes and I find that the handling is poor on anything but a good surface. I nearly dropped the bike again today and so I will change the tyres. I currently have a Metzeler Enduro 4 on the front and a Bridgestone Trail Wing on the rear. Does anyone have any suggestions which tyre combinations make the best compromise on rough roads with grit and sand patches.
