Thanks, I love reviews; especially tire reviews... I wonder how they would like some hot heavy miles on our pigs...

I just got a set in the stock size, hope to get them on this week. They're replacing an old set of Michelin Macadam that were on the bike when I bought it 4 years ago. I've been out of the country most of that time and have only put 1k miles or so on them since but worry about old tires.
I'll update the board with my thoughts. =]

Hi Gents, back in January, i put a set of BT023`s on mine.
Very happy with them for grip and wear.
Previous comment:
I`m always sus when hear dual compounds mentioned, as the ones i get seem to be the wrong way round - hard on the sides and soft in the middle.......
This time i think i got the correct ones. Seem to be wearing evenly!

I agree with Davo.
last autum I put on a set of BT023 and covered nearly 5000 Km sofar with them and happy about grip and look nearly new from shape around the shoulders and plenty of thread left in the middle. I think they capeble of 10 K.
Yes, I'm a slow driver
I never rev hard
I never brake hard
I never corner hard.
but a hot days cornering with the toes touching the tarmac the rear tire starts to slide and there is some movement in the bike.
I guess I've to set up the suspension again, to solve the wiggling.
