This is the same front tire that came with my 2013 Triumph Bonneville T100.
I was replacing the rear due to wear and decided to replace the front at the same time. It actually could have been left another year or two. 14,000 km. and the tire felt great and wore well.

Good skinny tire
Not much selection in 3.25 X 19. Tire is so skinny there're hardly any chicken strips left after some fairly reserved highway riding. Can't push a 38 year old collector bike too hard but so far so good.

2nd one good
Fitting on a 70s Ducati with FPS mag wheel... first tire 100/90 would not bead no matter what I did, WD40, liquid soap, 110psi of air, or sitting it in the sun all day with that kind of air in it. Decided to try another. Purchased 90/90 second time round and again had problems getting it to seat properly. Don't know if its my rim or just these tires fitting tight. Finally got the second one to bead by heating tire with a heat gun for an hour, lots and lots of dish soap, and 110psi of air. It's perfect now. I'm a fan of Metzeler tires as a rule, and have not had problems in the past, not sure what was happening with these. Happy now. Love the Lasertech front tire in the wet, doesn't follow tar snakes, or weave on milled road surfaces. Great tires.

Best Tire I ever had
I've used this tire for 25 years, even racing. Well priced, decent life, terrific stick. I'll use no other on the front.

Decent tire
I couldn't replace the metzeler with the one I had so I purchased this one which appeared to only have a higher speed rating. I installed and balanced it my self. I am not sure how much a tire can be out of balance but my old tire did have a shake to it occasionally. When I balanced this one I had to remove weights and I dont have the shake I had before. I usually only ride on dry pavement so I cant give you any wet feedback. So far the tire seems fine. The order was painless and delivery was quick.

Grip well for such a skinny tire.
These went on my 1981 XV920RH Yamaha and there wasn't a lot of selection for such a skinny 120 rear tire to match up with a 3.25 X 19 front which I also bought. Seem fine so far but I'm not going to push a 38 year old bike too hard.
