    think you'll be on 110/80R19 & 150/70R17, if that is the case then Michelin Pilot Road 4 trails are good for wet grip. Alternatives with a more chunky tread are Michelin Anakee III and Metzeler Tourance. What do you have fitted now?

    have you tried oponeo ( http://www.oponeo.co.uk/moto-tyre-finder )? They have a good reputation and prices are good. Tyre finder on website works well.

    have heard good reports on TrailAttack2's, don't have personal experience though.

    I have a Tiger800 road version with PilotRoad4 trails and a Bonneville with original Metzelers. The PR4 trails are by far the most popular for Tiger800 road, and that's a lot to do with their wet weather grip. You may find PR3's cheaper and they're similar but Michelin say they don't last so well, doesn't seem to be much evidence supporting this. There's a lot of Bonneville owners who go for RoadAttack2 on the front and TrailAttack2 on the back.

    I have just bought and had fitted Michelin Road Pilot 4. Had only one small unidentified slip. Hug the road very well in wet and dry weather. Come very highly recommended and worth the cost. There are some websites out there that have good prices if you shop around but when it comes to what is between you and the road I would say these are the best for a good price.
