irc gp-110 tires

I just ordered a set of these tires because I remember hearing some good things about them on the list - now that I look back in the archives, I see it wasn't all that good ;) I'm using them for all interstate riding for an upcoming trip. People with experience with these tires, do you think a set will last for 6500-7000 miles (all superslab)? What do you recommend inflating them to? I find 27psi works for my present brand of tires for highway use (MT21 front, TKC- 80 rear) but that's all relative. Do you think there is any credibility to the recent bashing of these tires? I have never had any hint of a problem running with semi-knobblies right now, including an 800 km trip at 14psi with them (on accident, I swear!). I haven't picked them up yet, so I still have a chance to swap them if I should get a different tire. Thanks for your time! Karl

Greetings All - just fininshed putting on a set of Pro-Gel grips and Acerbis hand/lever guards. Piece of cake EXCEPT for getting the left OE grip off! Man, oh man! Whatever Kawasaki is using for grip glue must be the best stuff on the planet! I'd like to have some of that stuff around for those really tough household problems! Tom
