I had the dealer put Bridgestone Trailwings on my Bonnie when I bought it. I wanted a more retro look for the bike and do most of my riding on road. The Bridgestones have never failed me in dry, wet, even icey conditions and the rear has almost 6000 miles on it, and will probably manage 6500-7000 miles before needing to be replaced. I may go for another rear trailwing until the front wears out then switch to Metzler Tourances just because I've heard good things about them and they may be better for mostly road use.
