Im sure going from the r1 to a cb is a factor. The r1 has much more superior suspension then a cb. I also heard u mention it was colder out. And idk how on top of ur air pressure u are.. but i ran the angel st on my r6 and in my experience i realized a st tire feels a bit more comfortable running a slightly lower psi.
Man, I don't understand why they don't sell this here in my country. Instead, we have the awful Dunlop Trailmax Mixtour. So annoying! I want this on my Vitpilen!
Long break in period... got it. PS.apart from weight the BMW is on a steel chassis, different vibration profile compared to the aluminium perimeter of the cb1000r so the feel might be very different
I like these tires a lot. I use them on my upright bike where I know I'll be on varied roads including dirt and gravel. They're also great on wet and cold roads, and don't slow the handling much like a knobbier type of tire. But on my street naked I use a sport tire.
I agree, in areas where the roads can get dirty, gravel, broken up pavement, etc, the Mutants perform pretty well! I've read a couple reviews where guys were testing them on the track and said they liked the track performance as well! I'm thinking they might just not be the best combo on the CB1000R, because I absolutely loved them on my BMW R1150R!
@@PastorMattMoto yeah - on my sport naked I'm using a pure street tire - Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 . Don't know if they're the bestest ever, but 'm not the fastest ever and they seem very good.
I find Dunlop’s (multiple models) take longer to break in. They last far longer too. I’m using the Road Smart 4 SPs on my SFV4s grey Nero. They stick like glue. After a warm up I can bank the bike harsh. Never tried therm In torrential rain and never will test a tire in those conditions (I don’t care how amazing a rider is or the tire is, I it’s nit worth the risk) but on damp roads it’s unwavering .
