If you want touring/high-mileage tyres, factory BT-45s are excellent. I got 18k-miles out of original factory rear-tyre and front could've gone another 4-5k. Changed them out for new ones of same model anyway.

For ease of unmounting, I like to stuff wheels into tyre-warmers @175F for about 30-minutes beforehand. Dunlop Alpha-13SPs and Q3+ are so soft, I can mount them by hand without levers!
