Time for some new rubber. After reading all the hype on the latest tyres, I've narrowed my choice down to Conti's new Road attack 2 & Bridgestones new BT023. Has anyone used these yet? I'm after a good all weather allrounder to replace my trusty BT021s on my ER6. Appreciate all opinions |

Hi Sparky, I replaced the original equipment BT015's on my 2007 ZX6R with BT023's and i cant fault them.I,m no hooligan by any means but i do like to ride swiftly when i can and they offer fantastic grip even in the wet. Also after 2700 miles the rear is only just started to square off so i am hoping for 5000 to 6000 miles from a set ! Hope this

hello mate i opt for the new bt 23 on my kawasaki zxr 750, they are very good in wet and dry and they can take a beating, have done 3000 mile and still plenty of meat on them. hope this helps, bridgestone are the best race and street tyre in my opinion.

Hi I agree with you all, I'm just about to put bt-23s on my zed12. Other people have recommended them and the write up on them is good too. |

I, like most of you, have used all sorts of tyres over the years but I highly recommend the Bridgestones! I used 020s and then waited for 021s to come out so I could use them on my Fireblade as the 020s weren't rated high enough. Just put 023s on my Bandit 1250 and they were immense. When the 014s wear out on my new ZZR14 (probably in just a couple of thousand miles), I will 100% be fitting 023s as they wear well, great grip in both wet and dry and finally, they are very stable and confidence inspiring! It's as if you can feel exactly what the tyre is up to on the road! Cheers Gaz |

Thanks you lot. Put the Bt023s on last week & I have to say I'm well impressed. Hardly any scrubbing-in needed (although still taking it easy for a bit). WINTER. I'm ready for ya!
