Mine was the plain jane Azaro II.  The weave was like
a minor tendancy to hunt a little left to
right--nothing major, you could still keep it on a
paint line, just not the rock steady feeling I was
used to.  This is minor enough for me to say it may be
endemic to my bike alone due to variables such as
suspension settings/tire pressures/loads, even
rear/front tire combo's.  I use a lot of spring and
rebound damping, 39F/41R, run a full set of GIVI's,
and never miss a meal (220lbs.)  It was consistent
with a new Azaro on back, didn't get worse with a worn
Azaro on back (I thought it would have...), still
there with a new Dunflop 207 on the rear.  Hopefully,
I have given you enough info.  I will try this tire
again and wouldn't want to steer you clear of
something that might work good for you.
