Ausgabe Motorrad 11/2008 FAZIT Reifentest
Getestet wurden 110/80 R 19 und 150/70 R 17 auf einer BMW R 1200 GS 
"... Sieger nach Punkten im großen Motorradreifen-Vergleichtest von MOTORRAD ist mit klarem Abstand der Continental Tail Attack. Neben der starken Vorstellung auf trrockener Strasse überzeugt er mit dem besten Verschleißverhalten. Bei Regen funktioniert der Conti zwar immer noch gut, muss sich auf nasser Fahrbahn aber mit Platz 3 begnügen. Der Metzeler Tourance EXP liegt mit Abstand vor dem zweitbesten Regentänzer, dem Michelin Anakee II, hält in punkto Verschleiß aber die rote Lanterne. Bleibt als Empfehlung: Vielfahrende Allrounder greifen zu dem Conti. Wem die Laufleistung nicht so wichtig ist und wer mehr Wert auf einen tollen Reifen für Regentage legt, ist mit dem Metzeler Tourance EXP bestens bedient. "

With a rapidly evolving performance cruiser market, Avon Tyres, a Cooper Tire & Rubber Company brand recognized for its heritage and top quality tyres, have listened long and hard to what their cruiser, custom and touring customers demand from a tyre. Handling, durability and aesthetics were high on the list. So when it came to replacing the extremely popular Venom-R, Avon has more than met these requirements with an exciting new tyre range called Cobra.
With its unique snakeskin sidewalls, aggressive tread pattern and low noise emissions, Cobra silently defeats all roads that stand in its path. While performance figures and the weight of custom cruiser and touring bikes continue to escalate, Cobra is a tyre that coils around these opposing attributes to allow the rider to exploit them like never before.
Prominent motorcycle tyre manufacturer Dunlop has launched the Sportmax Roadsmart, designed for sport touring motorcycles. This is a tyre that Dunlop is confident delivers outstanding performance on wet roads and matchless all around sport touring performance, qualities that are the fruit of more than two years global research effort.
The new tyre, which is reported to out-perform its predecessor, the Sportmax D220ST, in all areas, shows strong performance improvement on wet surfaces. This result was obtained whilst improving the conflicting demand of mileage performance, which was already recognised as one of the major strengths of the Sportmax D220ST.
“These improvements result from the combination of our latest Dunlop Sportmax hypersport tyres’ attributes with new compounding and construction technologies for an optimised performance in all riding, road and weather conditions,” said Sanjay Khanna, managing director Dunlop Motorcycle.
Updated 2023 - Unfortunately, it was to be expected that such a special tire size would no longer be produced. Therefore, all Ducati Desmosedici RR owners now have to change the rear rim to 17 inches and change the tires to the more common rear tire size, e.g. 200/55 ZR17 or 200/50ZR17.
