Well

I think there has been one or two tire discussions (and a poll even) over on the Gear channel. Did you try looking there??
Never rode on Avons, so I have no clue.
 
well it happened , new av45/av46 tires on my k1200, they are more than a dream under this bike, the first 150 miles they felt squeshy, but after200-300 miles all was well, i cannot believe how far down i can get in the twisties with these tires unlike the brigstones, the avons have a very smooth feel and solid feeling in the corners no wobbles and my front end whirring went away,also the road noise at 40 mph,the new ones are very quit, if you have not been following this discussion, my bike is brand new with 4650 miles on it 4000 miles were on the brigstone battleass tires , today i put 600 miles on the avons... all is well im back at the front of the bus.........
