In all fairness I can say that I never had any complaints with the Maxxis in "dry " weather. They did give a nice ride with plenty of grip. Incidentally, my chosen tyre fitter said he wouldn't have sold me them as they are Shxxx ! !.
Everyone has different views on tyres. Max is get good reviews from the states as a long lasting tyres. That's from K1600 owners. But they do a lot of straight road riding.
Trust me I am a retired Doctor and lecturer at Oxford University of Structural and Mechanical/Electrical engineering.
