190/50 R17 Tires

Fitted to a Suzuki GSXR 1000 K3
Rode from Fort William to Unapool Scotland 111 miles weather very wet moderate to heavy rain air temp roughly 14 degrees June 16th 2023
been riding for over 40 years grip from these tires in these conditions were unbelievable as you can imagine my desire to get to my hotel ASAP made me push things a bit more than i would normally in these conditions i at no time felt any lack off grip these tires stuck to the road like glue never in my over 40 years off riding felt more confident in riding in the wet cannot praise these tires enough 1st class pay a bit extra never buy cheap allternatives you really only get what you pay for

Only problem is punctures 1 a few months ago and a double puncture last week all repaired but ordered Road pilot 6`s hopefully I won`t be so unlucky as otherwise I love your tires.

On a Kawasaki GTR1400, I have tried the Michelin Road Pilot 4, and Pirelli Angel GT + and the Metzler Road Tech 01 really stood out for being more compliant over poor chopped up road surfaces like our Australian country roads. No complaints in the wet or dry. A confidence inspiring all round tires. Vibration free too unlike last set of Pirelli Angel GT +.

Brilliant tires.i ride 2018 fireblade. Dry n wet riding no problems, bike goes n stays were you want it to. Ride it hard at times. Just starting to flatten of after 8k miles so still mileage left in them. Will definitely use them again. K Hodgson.

I'm on a kawasaki zx9r and I've gone to these tires following three sets of the storm 2 ultras, mileage on both have been similar between 5-7000, 7000 if you stick to back lanes and twisties, I take these tires right to the edge within the first hundred miles on a dry road, I've done the NC500 in pouring rain three times, one of those the water was actually bouncing inches off the road it was that heavy and the tire never flackered even at 80+ mph so god knows what the rest of these people expect from a tire in the wet. I've had the majority of makes over the years on this bike and others over 750 cc and once these are warm they stick like s*it to a blanket at any speed, I also ride throughout the Winter and though they do take longer to reach temperature the only slide I've had was in dodging a pullout not a mile from my home as I momentarily locked up the back end, the car braked and stopped right in front of me as I slithered into it till releasing both brakes and swerving around the guy. I have years of experience, was a dispatch rider for in London for several of those, I don't hang about in any conditions and for an all round winter summer sports/tourer tire these are phenomenal on this size/weight of bike. I notice the whiners on here were on lardarse busa's and what I would call an 'adventure' bike, no these tires very likely didn't suit an off road machine pootling along and not getting warm or an overweight fugly and anyone comparing a bridgestone to these is out of their depth, get your suspension set up properly and ride it like you nicked it and these are top totty.

Bridgestone S20's were OEM on my 2019 Z1000sx tourer. The S20's were tolerable for the first 1500 miles. Lasted 4000 miles before being changed for Dunlop Roadsmart 2's. (Great tire in wet n dry. Will be fitting these again to the Z1000). After almost twice the mileage of the Bridgestone, the Dunlops have more wet n dry grip than the Bridgestones were when new! (Lasted 7.5 k miles,) Also had the Bridgestones on my Daytona 955i when i bought it, which were equally shyte, and were replaced by Michelin pilot 2CTs which lasted 5k miles. (Old tech but a great value tire!) Will be fitting the Pilot 2CT's again, exceptionally good in the wet and dry.

Yyre came as OE on my Z1000sx. These are by far the worst tire i have had on s bike for a very long time. No confidence in them at all other than when the bike is being ridden in a straight line except when crossing white lines, then it shakes its head and weaves all over the place.. In the dry I've had the rear lose traction while cornering on more than one occasion Heaven knows how bad they are in the wet. Fortunately I'm a fair weather biker nowadays so haven't had that experience. The rear only lasted 3000 miles. 2999 too many but hey I'm not wasting rubber. Front faired a little better. I'm hating my new bike at the moment and really hope once I've got better tires on it things will improve. Sadly not these S20rs. Dreadful, dreadful tire.

Just bought a rr8 blade and came with them on. They’re a few years old and probably had a 1000 or so miles on, and look like they’ve never leaned further than the side stand, so it’s probably an unfair review. I rode 300 miles of mainly motorway on the way home and at motorway speed(ish), and they felt okay. The following day I checked the pressures, squeezed into my 1piece and went for a 130 mile blast around the Dorset B roads. I find they struggle with feel and feedback and don’t give me confidence to lean as far as I’ve had on previous tires (I’ve had s21’s and Diablo Rosso 3’s for the road, plus used sc2 supercorsa’s and R10’s on track) Overall, it’s a pretty average tire. Nothing TOO wrong with them, but not for me and my riding style. I’ll be going for a set of S22’s ASAP...
