I fitted my S2 with Conti Road Attacks fantastic tyre, not sure what they were like in the wet as live in Spain but in the dry now problems, tyres were better than my ability but even this old fart had no bother grinding a bit of the pegs.
MT-09 Tracer for those who no longer can handle a BIG boy Fazer

I'm not going to mention anything on here for fear of persecution from "the haters"
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!
