and i must say it is awesome!!!!!!

IT corners awesome and the smaller profile allows full wheelies in 1st gear, It is soo cool riding wheelies on the 1100e

Yep, I enjoyed mine but if you ride like that a lot you'll need to order them by the bakers dozen. Normal riding is hard enough on them. :(

I used to run the K591S on my 750ED in the 140/70 17 size with a ME33 Comp K up front. The Dunlop is a superb bias ply tire, I hear the 501(its replacement) is also just as good. The only drawback was only getting about 1500-2000 miles of hard riding out of each rear. I considered that the price of getting superb grip and worth the price. Ride On, Ed.

Oldschool, I think you'll be really pleased with the GT501's. I've got over 5000 miles on my rear tire and I've still got a lot of "meat" left. :o :o

I run the GT501's on my S.
Still plenty of meat on them, and about 8K miles.
No wheelies, just corners.......
 
Thats good to know-I used to use the Sport compound 591 and really liked the low profile and grip of this tire. Hopefully soon I will be running radials as I just bought a 94 750 Katana complete chasis and plan on using the entire front end and rear rim to mount modern 17 inch tires. Thanks, Ed.
