We just returned from an epic 200-plus mile motorcycle adventure for the press introduction of Metzeler tire’s new Roadtec Z6 Interact sport-touring tire. Today’s ride took us from the summer-like warmth of Palm Springs, California up through more temperate sections of the Anza-Borrengo Desert State Park and back.
 
You name it, we probably rode it. From ultra high-speed triple digit bends to tight and technical second gear switch backs and, of course miles upon miles of straightaway’s often smooth, yet other times pretty darn rough.
 
And we’ve got to hand it to Metzeler. They keep raising the bar in terms of performance for us sport-touring enthusiasts. Quick warm-up times, outstanding outright grip, better than average bump absorption and of course rock-solid stability. Indeed it’s a good time to be a performance-oriented motorcyclist. Hold tight for the full review in the upcoming week.
