Bought my X1 3 months ago... put a set of those on it almost immediately. Almost 3k miles and my back tire has plenty left on it. I have only been pushing it hard the last 1500 miles and have no complaints.

Keep in mind... I have no comparison on this bike it had a bald Michelin on it when I bought it. I have yet to feel like these tires have let me down. Nice and sticky.

Only complaint is I got raped on the price by my local dealer. My fault I know.

Never used a Rosso II, but the Rosso Is are awesome and the stickiest tire I've ever used, and I used several brands and models of tires in 30,000+ miles on the S2.
