Yeah, I hear that ! .

Sliding on two wheels isn't any fun no matter what .

Back when my daily rider was a SWB '72 R75/5 BMW I was finally able to afford new Metzler 'Laser' tires, slapped them on and the next week rode in the pouring rain 35 miles to the BMW Club's monthly meet ~ that was the very first time I'd ever felt safe at speed (75) in the rain on any Moto .

Of course, I was the -only- one who rode there in the rain, I didn't bother renewing my member ship as no one ever seemed to want to actually _RIDE_ their BMW's .

Go figure .

FWIW, those Metzlers were, IIRC, 33 front and 77 rear...
