Ok... 1500km on the Shinko's and (hate to sound boring) but there's nothing noteworthy to report. They just do what they were intended to do. It's getting a lot cooler now we're into June and there are no warm up issues. Handling is great under any conditions, wet or dry (remembering I'm not a speed demon) and wear... what wear? Nothing visible.
I really liked the M1's and before them, the 014's and started out on the Shinko's trying to work out where they fell short compared with the others. They've not displayed any shortcoming - to the point where for weeks now, I'm not even consciously aware that I'm not still on the M1's or the 014's. I just ride the bike and it feels solid and planted and it reacts exactly the way I want it to in a controlled and predictable manner. Can't ask for more than that.
No complaints.
