To start off my review, i'll indicate that i'm using my bike and tires solely for road riding with some mild touring.
Was running the Michelin Pilot Power 3 and it was very lasting with more than 30% life after 15,000km.
Decided to give the S22 a try after reading some positive feedbacks. Initial feel was the willingness for the bike to lean over into corners.
Also rode through heavy downpour at over 100km/h and the bike feels very stable.
i noticed a small dimple pushed into the side of the tire, probably after hitting something pointy, and basically, i could insert my finger nail and pull out the surface dimple... hence quite skeptical about the longevity of the tire life.

These tires are awesome, just on the wet road it's getting a lill bit slippery.
not a bad tire once its warm, you just dont get a good feed back from the tire that its warm enough to corner. very stable at 170mph, And once you corner its not the best on its limit, but a very good lasting tire for all around enthusiastic riding, mine lasted me 4000km -
sport attack on my cbr 600 was very good in the dry,slipped now and again in the wet but nothing major, then had a set of road attack and they were outstanding in the wet...at the end of the day its down to your control
best motorcycle tires ive ever had. unbelievable grip and super fast warm up times. even on road pressures its confidence inspiring and easy to get your knee down..midway through a turn its giving you so much feedback and you can really feel the grip. even if i ping open the throttle mid turn, the tires dont fuss..just grip and catapult me out of a corner. even standing starts at a stop light you can feel the added traction. cant wait to do a track day on these..kept reading about bad tire wear but its average for a soft tire like this. im running the endurance compound. everyone has to find a tire that suits them..i loved dunlops on my car..the sp9000s were amazing. similarly these tires are incredible. have not tried them in the wet yet though..but if you can afford it..definately go for these.
Having shed the stock Dunlops on my 600RR (which are frankly lethal in anything other than 35 celsius!) I can honestly say these are the best tires I have ever ridden on. True they are a sports tourer tire but the solid center section gives superb longevity and the sticky off centers mean you complete confidence to push it a little bit around the bends. As a police trained advanced rider I can honestly give these my highest reccomendation.
