I was wondering if anybody has tried the Continental Contiforce tires on their XB yet? My M-1's were on their last leg. I search the message board and couldn't find anything on them.

I have the Conti M-Force radials on mine and have found them to be interesting. They have a profile halfway between a Pirelli Diablo and the Dunlops that come on the bike stock. They handle wet weather very well, and I did find out that they can "work" in snowy conditions last weekend. I have gotten roughly 4500-5000 miles out of them so they did work for the mileage aspect I was after. What makes them interesting is they way they started to wear. It seems for the very first heat cycle they are very soft. A 1000mile round trip made a nice flattening of the center of the rear tread. From that point on, the tire wore evenly. As in the center didn't continue to wear any faster then the outer edges. I have thought of trying the Road Attacks for the mileage and weather handling. Oh, and the front is wearing equally with the rear. Which means I will have to replace both at the same time.
