I brought front and rear for a Yamaha yzf r125
The tires are very good in both wet and dry
Iv done 300 miles on them so far and am very pleased with the Avon brand. I will get these tires again when I need a new set

Truly dreadful tyres. Whilst they are a good grippy tyre in wet and dry the manufacture is desperately poor.
The Michelin Pilot Street front tyre 2.75 18 had such a bulge or offset moulding the bike could not be ridden faster than 25mph without massive vibration and the handlebars banging up and down. The rear Michelin Pilot Street 90/90/18 was only marginally better. As a new biker it took me a while to discover what the problem was. It never occurred to me that tyres could be so mishapen.
My replacement Continental tyre is perfectly formed and smooth as silk.

I have Michelin Pilot Street as rear tyre on my R125. Pretty bad in wet conditions, and slips doing hard cornering on dry ground. Impossible to kneedrag with these tyres.
