As above, the Road 5 GT is not yet available, looking back at this thread, https://1200rt.com/viewtopic.php?t=0, it suggests that it won't appear this year (2018). "The Pilot Road 4 GT remains our recommended fitment for your bike, and the standard Road 5 tyres are not recommended. We are deve...

Hi Does anyone know if the Road Pilot 4 tires are compatible with the new Road 5 ? After 18,000 kms on the rear Pilot 4 it's time to replace it.

I take it with me on long solo trips, but have never yet used it, I seem to be able to ride all day with the standard seat, with normal breaks every 1.5 hours. Its like all things, some love Air Hawks some hate them. The key seems to be, not to ...
