Kawasaki zx12r Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Avon Viper Supersport AV60 given 80% (200-50-17-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 2600 spirited miles

fitted these to a 2001 zx 12r .. cant find anything bad to say . down to wear indicators on front and rear , 2600 miles . had great grip and feedback both wet and dry . did have a couple of rear slides but had to provoke them . performed very well on such a heavy bike with big bhp . i would say if used on lighter machines they may take a little warming up . just fitting second pair so , i must be happy

Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles

Running on a 55 ZX12R Modded to 195bhp, use everyday for 30 mile round commute come rain or shine, also 'Weekend Blasts'..
These tyres are very very good, have run many different tyres over the years and not much comes close in terms of Grip V Wear. Great while 'Getting Down' to the edge with the triple compound, and gave me an amazing 3700m rear and 5000m front, even with all the grunt of the 12. Wet I would say pretty good but the front a little 'vague', so i don't tend to push it too hard. Prior to these tyres i was on Michelin Pilot Power 2CT's and these are better in my opinion...
