170/85 17 Tyre Review Highlights

Avon Storm 2 Ultra rated 64% while driving a Triumph Sprint Sports
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
Replaced worn out Conti's. Agressive/Spirited riding all year round (within limits!) Toured Ireland last summer - better than the same trip on Conti's in the spring. When new/warm wet grip is ok - non existant in cold British winter, to be fair the Conti's were the same year before - conclusion they only work if warm. Fitted as a pair, just got 4K up on them and puncture in rear - bout 2K left - Looking for something else now, not bad but not great, pricey for an "OK" tyre, not sure which way to go now.
