Just got me a new Bridgestone BT021 rear tyre on the VFR as the miles down to Surry and back squared off the BT020.
I was going to try another make but thought why should I??
I have had no issues with the Bridgestone tyres, just went for the dual compound tyres because of the motorway miles I am now doing every Monday and Tuesday.
Shame it cost me £130 though......
just had to buy 2 tyres for mine, they are both bridgestones, like you i quite rate them. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
I use Metzeler Z6's on mine now. I used to use 020's. Same spec as 020's, but these don't square off as easy if at all... ;)
I just bought myself a pair of Metzler Z6 tyres for my bike, £140 delivered for the pair as they are on offer this month :)
I've always used and trusted Avon Storms in the past, so lets hope these are as good of better than the Avons
I was looking at the Z6's but Bike Treads didnt have any in, plus I didnt really want a Bridgestone front and a Metzeler back, I didnt think this would be cricket.

Got this off E-Bay last week.
Great Mileage; But a load of b*ll*x on the cornering.
Found it works better on me Tractor mind! :-/
Now that would be great in the rain, look at the tread on that. ;D ;D ;D
I've always used bridgestones, got 020s on at the mo and love them

Got BT21s on mine as well, rate them highly, got nearly 2000 miles on them at the moment and no sign of been squared off yet.
sweet nice, I like a lot of mileage out of a tyre.
