Metzeler M7RR

[Esceptico]

Have done around 500 miles I think with the M7 RRs. So far they have performed perfectly. No complaints at all. However, not had to test their wet weather capabilities.

I want some! Getting another Avon rear tomorrow (booooooo) since the front is fine, I'll get a pair in a few months.

I got 4.5k including 4 trackdays out of a rear with tiny bit of life left in it. The front is still on and I reckon I will probably get about 7k including another track day. Really happy with them considering how well they grip.

That's pretty much what I'm getting as well.

Last rear was 4,700 miles, Front is on 6,800 miles and will be replaced Saturday.

5k rear, 7k front is ok with me for a sports tyre. I reckon PP3's will do a bit more but I prefer these M7's.

After saying that I went and got the front replaced on Monday. It still had about 2mm of tread left but I didn't fancy doing another track day on it. I think it would have got to 6k easily enough which I think is good.

I went for Diablo Rosso Corsas.

Have to say so far. They are a bloody awesome tyre. Don't think they will last long as they are grippy as hell and in my mind that makes me think...soft rubber.

Got them on my bike now and feel just like the Diablo Rosso 2's (a good thing in my book)

rrued them out on track testerday in damp/drying conditions.

Didn't push them too hard, was really struggling with tyre pressures though.

Once I started dropping them below 33/31 going to 31/29 I was struggling to turn in.

Plenty of grip though, no moments. Got up to temperature after 2 laps although in pretty cautious with warming my tyres.

I ran mine 33/31 when it was around 10 degrees. Dropped them to 31/29 once it warmed up a bit on Tuesday and they wore very well. They are ready to go after a lap too, no problem at all.

[jackh707]

At the risk of sounding stupid, were those hot or cold temps?

I was really strugglin to get the bike turned in to the tighter hairpins at Angelsy at 31/29 in my last session, but then it was foggy and I wasn't having a good session and finished early because I couldn't see.

They were cold. I don't have warmers because I ride to the track.
