Street Tires

All the top brands make great tires; Dunlop, Metzler, Michelin, etc. I just mounted a brand new set of Dunlop Roadsmart IV's from American Moto Tire. I expect them to be a great tire. But, my bike is a 2019 R1250RT. What size tires does the '16 GS take? I like https://www.americanmototire.com/street-tires/ .
Continental tires has a road service plan
Most any brand name tires will work fine. Everyone here has their preference. I don't understand why folks put bias ply tires on their bike. Radials give us the same benefit that we get on a Chevy. Something else to consider, Continental tires has a road service plan (think tow truck) where they will come tow you to the shop of your choice (150 mile limit) for free. See their website for more info.
(small plug; I usually get about 19-20,000 miles on a set of ContiRoadAttack 3 tires on my 14 r1200gs)
