I just ordered Bridgestone bt45s for my r65. Even though AM20 and AM21 are still available according to tyre dealers website.
According to all the chat their dual compound provides better grip and at least as good wear. We'll see. Price was good about £118 including delivery for the pair.

I put new BT45s on my R65LS and am very pleased.  The ride is smoother, and the tires seem stickier, than the old metzlers
that were on there...
