Even after 30 odd years of riding it's easy to forget how great a new set of tyres feels

Just swapped the original Bridgestones for Dunlop TR 91's following the Adventure Bike Tyre test and whilst as yet it's too early to say how good they are the difference in having new tyres is amazing. The bike feels like it's lost 100kg's. Turns, stops just feels so much more responsive.
Can honestly say the Bridgestones were the worst set of tyres I've ever had on a Motorcycle so was please to get rid of them. Being a tight arse though I did manage to squeeze nearly 7K miles out of them so they were truly knackered.
But, as tyres deteriorate so gradually one really doesn't notice just how bad they can get.
Not quiet up there with sleeping with a new woman but a pretty great feeling all the same
