You don’t have to slow down for the cold at all
I picked these up for my 690 SMCR. These tires are in the winter. I’ve used the regular version in the summers but I’ve never tried these high silica variants. I put them on in December and it’s never been warmer than +6. I’m riding in rain and around freezing temps. The grip is incredible. I’m rolling on the gas hard at full lean at +2 in the freezing rain and it feels like it’s the summer heat, full traction, great feedback, lots of wheelies off of corners from roll ons at lean. To give you a sense of it, in the three months since December, without really trying, I’ve got zero chicken strips on both my front and rear. In the winter this extra silica compound is unbelievable and I hear they last in the summer heat too. You can ride like a full on savage with full confidence. Very recommended.

Grippy Supermoto tire, but unstable at high speed!
These things are pretty sticky in the dry (standard compound) - I've never managed to get them to slide on dry, clean pavement. They are not picky about temps - unlike some tires *cough* Battleaxe *cough* - >_>
Surprising amounts of grip on packed dirt/gravel and wet roads for those of you who want to do a little extra with your supermoto. So much more front end confidence on logging roads compared to sport radials, much better drive too. Completely useless in mud, but what do you expect for something that looks like these!?
Rather unstable above 120 km/hr on my DRZ400SM - don't buy these if you want to be able to ride above this speed! (my bike was fine at high speed and similar pressures on pilot power 2's)
I took about 5k-6k km to wear through the rear, and the front has at least 50% left.

Bon pneus tout terrain de Supermotard
Excellente qualité et bonne performance sur sèche comme mouillée. Comme toujours livraison rapide. Seul regret, j’aurais préféré la version slick qui est en rupture de stock.

Good overall tire
These tires are decent in the rain, sticky on the asphalt, and can hold their own in the trails/single track

Great tire for a variety of conditions
Haven't put too many km's on them yet but so far I'm impressed with the grip on asphalt as well as gravel and logging roads. These are road race rain tires with a little firmer compound. I live in eastern ontario and these are fantastic on the back roads. I probably wouldn't recommend them if your primarily on asphalt, especially in a warmer climate or if your riding 80 - 100 % paved roads as I doubt they will hold up. That being said if you want great multi terrain tires to tour back roads I'd highly recommend them.

Perfectly Planted in Puddles
Wonderful dirt/rain tire without sacrificing dry performance. Quite soft so it won't last much more than one season but the wet performance is superb, which is exactly what I bought it for.
