I have 30,000 miles experience on Darkside with 2007 Burgman 650 (made several posts on this site with pictures regarding that). MY 650 died in NOV - no power to back wheel after 73400 miles (might get it fixed, some indication it is the clutch -- posted about that also).
Anyway, I bought a 2011 Burgman 400 Thursday and plan to Darkside. Would be nice to know a particular tire that has been used. I have searched around on here and all kind of talk about different tires, but hard to read 40 posts about everything and not find any CT recommendations.
So, I would like to see a thread with nothing but tires listed and experience with the tire. DO NOT NEED ANY MORE analysis or discussions about: Do or Don't, Advantages or Disadvantages, Experiences or Lack Of Experience, Do Not put CT on a MC as CT not made for MC, Can't curve as good, Handles slightly different, Need practice and practice with it, etc., etc.
Been there done it - know many folks that have done it and ride hard. NO PROBLEMS. I ride East TN (ever hear of the Dragon 318 curves in 11 miles? many roads like that). I don't knee drag or race, but I do hang off the scooter (Play Racer). NO PROBLEMS.
PLEASE - just keep it to tires you have used and your experience or problems (rubbing, difficulty in mounting and seating the tire on the rim, wear miles, etc.). THANKS
Maybe direct me to a thrad that has that information condensed.
Any Comments on any of these for Burg 400?

In particular this one - symetrical tread and near right size.
