I had the Yoko Geolander M/T (not M/T+) and they were loud as hell on the road. Yes, they looked awesome but they absolutely ROARED at speed on pavement. That was the only thing I didn't like about them. Perhaps the slight design changes to the M/T+ have helped out a bit, not sure. The current shoes on my VX are just as aggressive and much quieter. I do like the Yoko's, but that's just my 2¢.
