Great tire! I've had them on my 1996 CBR600F3 and my 2015 R1. Just bought another set for my resto-mod 89 GSXR750. Amazing in the wet or dry, with good life even against the 183 rwhp R1. Very light turn in, and good communication while on the side of the tire.

I had a set of these on my ZX14 Streetfighter. Initially hated them. The front had a vibration problem (well into triple digit speeds) and I switched from a 190 50/17 to a 200 55/17 rear. My mistake, I figured.
A buddy who swears by these told me to check steering head bearings before condemning the tires. I did and had to replace the bearings. After several rebalances the front still had the high speed vibration. The front wore out and was replaced with a Dunlop Q4 and I finally acclimated to the rear. I absolutely rail through the high speed corners. The bike puts 200HP at the wheel and the tire has never stepped out or broke traction. At 4K miles the wear bars are flush with the tread.
Gonna order another rear. Docked one star for the front vibration. I highly recommend this tire.

Loved the last set and feel the same on the new ones. Old ones lasted 4500 miles, great wet or dry roads.

I normally run Michellin pp3 on my bikes but I wanted to give metzelers a try. I am glad I did. I am running a pair of these m7s on my '15 hayabusa and I absolutely love them so far. This tire has lots of grip, doesn't break loose off the line and even though I'm on a busa, I like to throw it around like my 600 and these tires give me the confidence to do so. I would definitely recommend these tires to anyone on the fence about which tire to go with.
