Well, after bad mouthing the Metzs in an earlier thread (I didn't like the 880s on my BMW due to cupping) I went ahead and ordered them for my BA anyway based on recommendations here. I'm looking for higher milage as well as better performance and I know the 880 to be a long running tire.
I had them installed this afternoon and have all of 50 (careful) miles on them. In that very short time I can tell a HUGE positive difference in the bike's handling and ride. I was especially pleased with how they handle grooved pavement on the Interstate. No more hunting like the OEM front tire did.
I put the 110/90-18 on the front and it fits fine. It's tight, but it doesn't rub. Helps the speedo too.
