Question Suggestions for new tires????

Time for some new rubber for the Ducati ST3. I've used Metzlers and Dunlop before, both are pretty good. Any others worth considering? Thanks in advance. Cheers.

Mostly touring with a few quick runs in the twisty hills. I save the Track days for my Audi.
Thanks.

I like Bridgestone's offerings.

1. They are the largest tire manufacturer in the World. That means deep pockets for r&d when other companies are spending that money on marketing.

2. They have huge amounts of trickle down technology from top level racing.

3. They last.

The 21's sound solid.

I do 50% highway (no choice ) and the rest split between city and enthusiastic twisties.

Installed a rear Michelin Pilot Road 2 last year, after 6,000 miles it still looks like new (prolly still good for another 4-6k), the grip is good once warm, and they have a great "sticky" feel.

I guess I rave about them enough, everyone around me is switching to them, and I just put a new one in front.

I would absolutely recomend them!
