X2 on that...
I'm not in this game to save money or to just get high mileage.... Dunlop 400s are to slick in the rain, I think the rubber is just harder than others. They also tend to dive into road snakes, especially the narrower 21"er on my FXSTC. I've settled on the Metz 880s and now 888s, I ride hard much of the time and only get about 8K on a rear but they have good grip, especially when the roads are wet. Just took off a set of 402s from my springer that were half worn and put a set of Narrow whitewall Metz on, I just have more confidence in them.
