Haven't tried the conti, but I was talking to a guy at the weekend who was singing the praises of the Pilot Road 3 on his BMW 1200. He reckoned he got 6000 miles out of the rear tyre.

I just reckon he didn't twist the throttle hard enough Laughing behind hand

Booked in for conti road attack 2s .. as has been said prob most decent tires are much of a muchness, but got a price I was happy with Cool

All about confidence I quess, have to agree Bridgestone and Pilot roads just dont inspire me, but then again thats just my oppinion.
