Second set on a K1600 GTL: solo, pillion commuting and touring with and without luggage. Never let me down, and I found them to be great even when soaking wet.
Don't use the bike in very cold conditions, so can't comment on winter suitability.
I am now getting the Smart IV so I look forward to even better tyres.

Lasted 16,000 km (just down to the centre tire wear bars) mostly on British Columbia Canada roads. Front - 120/70ZR17, Rear - 190/55ZR17. Goes into and comes out of corners effortlessly. Riding over a grated metal bridge deck is like riding on a smooth surface.
