Metzeler M3 Tires

Didn't like them. Same goes for their twin: the Pirelli diablo. Terrible in the rain and otherwise inferior in all sense to the pilot powers (even non 2ct)
 
M3s are OK, and it surprises me that they still use them as an OEM tire for a few bikes since the M5 has been out for a few years and it's a MUCH better tire. If you like Metzeler's profile, go for the M5's.
 
Yea I thought they were discontinued since the M5? I wouldn't bother with the M3 personally
 
Replaced my OEM M3's with M5's. Huge difference in performance and great wet weather handling. They still sell M3's?
 
Went through a couple sets of these on my 600 in 2008, nothing spectacular. Average tire, no complaints

Came on my bike when I bought it. They weren't particularly great. They seemed pretty hard so you might get some decent mileage but thats about it.

I swapped them out for some Bridgestone S20s.

My S20s were great all -year tires, warming up quickly in the cooler temps, but as many reviewers argue, the front outshines the rear. My rear gave up the ghost early on, especially transitioning from upright to slight lean angles.. You will love Dunlop Q3s when those S20s die out.. I got 9600km on my set of S20s.
