Performance and value
I currently have exactly one rear tire choice for my odd ball rear wheel. After 200kms I can say these radials are as close as I can get to OEM rubber that isn't being made anymore. Handling and shipping smooth and quick as always.

Solid tire for the price
Great tire for my DRZ400sm. It’s got a better tread pattern then OEM. Had it off road a little with no issues.

Good value tyre
Value is the relationship between quality and price. This tyre is great value. Good cold and hot weather grip. Predictable adhesion qualities. Wears a little too quickly but that’s the price you pay for a performance tyre.

Questions
The information on this tire suggests it is available in a v rated or w rated tire is this correct? I am interested in the w rated tire. how can I specify this when purchasing on line?
This is not an option. V or W rating depends on the model you choose.
You can find the information at http://www.shinkotireusa.com/tire/006-podium
BTW, I love this tire on my Bandit 1200.
