which tyres?

[GixerBoy]

Don't Bridgestone market the BT020 as a touring tyre Jen??? ;D

[desmojen]

Indeed they do, but I can vouch for them mate, don't worry!

Why pigeon hole things anyway, that's for those who are short of sight isn't it?

If you say so Jen but i'd rather have something with a bit more gripski under my butt thank you very much!!

[desmojen]

Lol, whatever mate. This was for Dabz as I recall, and speaking as someone who has lapped Cadwell at under two minutes on BT020's I can vouch for the grip too

Now stopp hogging someone elses thread and go clean your bike or something ;D

Dabz - I have used 010's, 020's, 012ss and 014's in various combinations. Unless you are going to do a large amount of trackdays then the 014's are just lovely. They warm up fairly quickly, are good in the wet, and as a road tyre they are very good. If you are planning on doing mainly motorway miles and long distance stuff then 020's are better.

I had a Firestorm with 010 on the front and 020 on the rear and that was a good compromise.

I agreed with Rex the tractor boy, you really do want a stickier tyre on the front, much easier to survive a rear wheel slip than a front!!!.... its a shame "sports touring" tyres have a bad name with so many bikers, as they are really good! most of us will never ride to their limits, especially not on the road. previously i used 020's on an EXUP RU, and they were fine....and i used to give them a good pasting!
