I tried these.... While many other bikes love these tyres, my experiences with the Anakees on the Tenere are -:
* Great on dry roads, no more grippy than TKC's though. On moderately wet roads, they were OK...
* On very wet roads, well..... it's possible to spin the rear while moving.
* If you venture onto wet grass - you will get stuck ( SteveD & Stumpydave had to push me off the field)
* They do last very well, I put nearly 1000 miles on them, they still looked new with no squaring, despite 200 miles of motorway riding.
Having said all that, they are supposed to be the doggy danglers on the Tiger, so I'll be trying them again on the other bike.
Riders and tyres are different, my experiences are just that, mine, other riders may like them. For me it's TKC's all the way now, same grip as road tyres they just don't last anything like as long.
