I need me a new tyre for the rear on my 2001 R6.

I need one for all conditions wet and dry as I use my bike everyday as well as weekends rides out.

What can you recommend for me ?

Michelin Pilot Power 2CT.

Had 3 in the past couple of years on my '99 and have been all right. Motorway commutes, twisty A & B roads. Grip is excellent: 130mph in December with snow piled either side of the roads and grit, salt and crap covering the roads. No issues whatsoever.

Wouldn't use anything else.

Just to give you an idea of the conditions:
