Sport Touring Tire Review Aggressive Rider Perspective

[brianzubia]

You mention in the video that the Bridgestone would be better on a heavier bike...What do you consider a bigger/heavier bike? My bike is BMW R1100R and weighs about 500 lbs.

hi guys - am a bit new to learning about tyres. i ride a HONDA VFR 800 VTEC - I think in the US you call it the INTERCEPTOR. I am looking at some new tyres & was hoping someone could shed some light on whether the PILOT POWER ROAD 2 CT would suit a) the bike and b) my riding.

i use my bike solely as a toy - twisties on the weekends and about 4 trackdays a year. also a trip to nurnurgring every summer about 2k miles round trip

i like riding a little aggressive -

any comments please -

thanks

@aakashkhatwani if you want Michelin and if you are going to do track days, go with the Pilot Power 2CT or Pilot Power Pure and if you don't do trackdays, go with the Road 2 or Road 3. the Road's will last longer but the 2CT or Pures will give you more grip.

getting set of bt-016's this weekend (I was riding on bt-021's for the last seasons) the reason I change is simple... need more fun on the bike! dont get me wrong bt021 is a great tyre,but more likely for commuting....great millage and great wear on them... I am riding cbr 600FX

I have a couple of mates with late model Kawasaki Concours (1400cc) and they've been running Michelin Road 2's with great success with tyre life between 11,000-14,000km witch is really good for our coarse chip road surface. I ran a Road 2 on the back of my ZX14 (Pilot Power 2ct on the front) also with good results getting 9000km out of it before taking off. That's the best milage i've had from a rear tire by a long long way.

My buddy has the bt021 and he runs a 99 zx6 and hasnt brought it to its limits even when racing dudes at speeds over 120 through twisties..
