Your PR2's
I have PR2's on both bikes but just realised they're made in Thailand on the Bandit and Spain on the Firestorm.
That could explain the shit wear I'm getting on the B1250.
Where are yours made?

Spain.
I've only had these on for about 3 thousand k's so can't comment on wear with these ones , but I remember years ago one of the tire suppliers I was at commented that the PR2 tires were made in more than one place , & wear comparisons between the two were different . I changed the last ones both at the same time @ about 15,000 km . ( may have been a bit more in them , but they were getting pretty worn ..........I don't know where they were from )

You wouldn't believe it the front is Spanish the rear is Thai therefore I'll refrain from voting.

I think that it's a bloody crock that manufacturers can make "the same" tyre in two countries that perform and wear so very differently and yet charge you the same money for them.

So the front wants to charge at anything that is RED ! And the rear wants to charge you 2o bucks for a Gooooood time.
