What kind of mileage are you doing Yorkie?

I go for higher mileage type tyres on the Hypermotard as it's used as a commuter bike over a back-road thrasher. I used to run Pirelli Angel GT on it but just didn't gel with them and felt them too hard - even though I get excellent 10,000 miles out of a set - so this time I opted for the slightly softer Angel ST that I've had before.

One the 748 I have always gone with Bridgestone and that gets used on fast road and track too. I went for the BT014 this time - nothing too sticky but good enough for the road and the odd track use as well.

I don't think you'll go wrong with whatever you choose, it's just a case of finding the right balance between sticky and hard
