Been using both the touring tyres on my 600's, and diamonds on my litre bikes.
The touring tyres are just that, grippy enough, but treat them with a bit of respect. Sickys they are not. Done about 20k on these, commuting, a bit of touring, and I've scratched with the litre boys on them, and kept up!
Diamonds do feel funny at first, but the design and handling make sense in the real world. I give them a Damn good thrashing, and they perform very well compared to the mainstream s/t tyres. They're great from cold, superb in the wet, and I lost the hero blobs on my gen 2 with them. Got em on my r1, and my bro in law has them on his Tuono. Don't believe the haters, see for yourself!
