Louis, asking people for opinions on tires is almost like asking them which oil they prefer.

My experience - the bike came with Bridgestones. They were terrible. When they were *finally* worn down, I mounted a set of Continental RoadAttacks. These were excellent. When the RoadAttacks were worn, I mounted a set of Metzeler Roadtec Z6's. These were just as good as the Continentals. When the Z6's were worn, I replaced them with a new set of Z6's.

Dunlops aren't particularly popular around these parts, so I've never though about trying them...and Pirelli doesn't make their Diablo in the right size for my bike (although Pirelli now owns Metzeler, so they are both made in the same factory).
