I agree with you. The dunflops really are flops in heavy rain in cornering. Your confidence is really reduced if your trying to move with speed in the rain. In the dry yeah they work well but they do slip if your not carful.
Not anymore. They range from good to bad. Some which you are just playing dodge the gravel patch and watch out for the assault course of pot holes. And its one T in scotland not two :spank:
You'd only ride about 50 days a year in Glasgow, Scotland if you worried about the rain, sleet and snow and the temperature. Your right, just practice, I have ridden my XJ6 in downpours and it still stays right way up if your not harsh on it.
