Mr BB has the ZZR and the first road trip is in May to Scotland . The rear tyre could probably do with replacing.
Does anyone have any good examples for a good set of tyres for this purpose

The Avon Storm 2 Ultra are supposed to be really good all round tyres with longer mileage.

The other tyre they do for tourers is the Azaro-ST.

Avon are very underrated IMO. They have a very loyal following. A mechanic mate of mine swears by them.

They're what I've just had put on the Z1000. The mechanic also recommended them for mileage.
I've only put about 100 miles on then so I can't vouch for mileage claims or even how grippy they are as I'm still breaking them in. If I were going off first impressions though, they're great!
