Michelins get a bad press.
I did a CSS 2 day camp in Spain and it's the only time I have ever had my toes down on the right - that was on Pilot Sports.
Have run Michelin slicks and you can take serious liberties with your bike and they stick like glue.
Whatever you feel happy with.
Swapping tyres may lead you to the wrong conclusions and it may be your riding style on a VTwin in wet conditions.
Give the tyres a chance to prove themselves in the dry too.
There is much talk of silica this and silica that, ride them in various conditions and then let us know - maybe in a back to back comparison as if you get it into your head that they are dangerous, you might as well change them.
It would be more psychological that fact me thinks though.

Just my pennies worth.
