The Honda Owners Club

My '01 Transalp is needing new rubber soon, currently having Avon Distanzia on board. In the few years i have used these, they appear to work pretty well in the wet and are ok in dry. I use my bike every day for commuting and rideouts and only road use, no offroad!

Best recommended tyres plz?

When I had a Honda Dominator I had a set of Pirelli Scorpion tyres which were pretty good and I replaced them with Trailwings which were also good and wore fairly well.

HI, HEARD A LOT OF BAD PRESS ABOUT TRAILWINGS, HAD A 53 VARADERO 1000 UNTIL SEPTEMBER
HAD DISTANZIA ON REAR, GOT METZELER TOURANCE FITTED, VERY WELL RATED !
JUST BOUGHT 08 VARADERO 1000 TO FIND THEY HAVE TRAILWINGS, IT IS SAID THEY ARE NOT RATED
IN THE WET. nelly (new member)

Lol heard you the first time

I rode in the wet/snow/rain with my Trailwings but the Dominator is a smaller lighter bike than the Varadero so could well behave differently.
