I roll on these on my R1150GS. I live in Zambia and do a fair amount of gravel and sand in addition to high speed tarmac. These tires have done well for me and I like them better than the Anakees that they replaced, especially off road. I have ridden on sustained high speed trips in Namibia in high temperatures and see no signs of tread separation. I would have to give the nod to Anakees on wet tarmac but the Shinkos outperform in all other respects. I don't track my mileage - I just buy new tires when I need them. So far, though, the Shinkos seem comparable even though the rubber feels a bit on the soft side. My next set will be Shinkos and at this price it's a no-brainer for me.
Yes, I recommend this product.
