I put Sumitomo HTR Zs on my 90 a couple of months ago. The things said in other threads about these tires were very accurate. They don't grip as well as the factory tire, but they ride much better. As for driving in bad weather, I don't think either tire is all that great. But, we have terrible roads where I live (very uneven, lots of large puddles to hydroplane in...), so no tire does all that great here in heavy rain. All things considered, I feel like I made the right decision. But, if the price were closer or if I didn't have other projects demanding my $$$, I would have went with the factory replacement for the grip.
