I'm impressed. Went from these:   To these:   Initial impressions are excellent, I know new tires always feel awesome but these feel at least as great as Syncs or RoadSmarts, and in some ways better than both. Bike handles like a motorcycle again, not a farm implement like it did with the Ravens (IMHO, I just didn't like those tires though lots do). Smoother than my favorites up to this point, the 'Smarts. Turn in and transition are great. If the dual compound rear gets even close to the mileage I'm hoping (RoadSmarts would get me 9K then poof they're gone) then I score. Price was excellent also compared to others. http://www.chaparral-racing.com/Product/bridgestone-bt-023-front-and-rear-tire-package-1/PKG-330-1024.aspx I searched quite a bit here for input on these but didn't get anywhere, in fact I was going to try the Conti Motions but they didn't have any fronts in the warehouse, and I like to pick out my own tires keeping my eye on the manufacturing dates. Took the plunge on the 'Stones and I'm happy I did. | ||

I'm on my 2nd set and really like them. I only get about 3500-4k on the rears though | ||

Just replaced my Angels with these on my XT and I`m liking them a lot already. only gone 400 miles on em but got no chicken strip on the back on my usual ramps to and from work! They work very much like the pr2`s i had before the angels.Got 8000 out my angel though so its the best wearing tire i`ve had so far. These turn in a little slower than the angles but roll over better to me. The angels flopped over quicker but needed more input to stay over, and resisted trail breaking more than these. Got em on sale this spring so I`m hoping they get me thru summer and fall. | ||

New to the Buell world. What's the deal with blue tie downs? I assume they keep the Pit Bull from slipping. What does the top look like? | ||

You will like how sticky the BS tires are. Felt like a different bike coming off a set of worn Raven 009's. Funny thing, the center treads on both tires were still good; it was the sides that were worn.  I got about 5k miles, each, out of 2 sets of BS tires on my Uly. |
