Battlax BT 16's - anyone using them - gday67 - 11-02-2009
Hi all,
looking to replace tyres quite soon and have read other threads, re: Pilot Powers, HPX, etc and was wondering if anyone has tried the Bridgestone BT 16's. I have read the reviews, but am looking for real experiences.
cheers

Ahhhh the great tire debate rears its ugly head again sigh
Have used them - depends on your riding style, expectations and budget. I liked the rear 016 thought it was a great tire (considering I dont really like Bridges but this one changed my view point finally) - took it down to the track expecting not to last more than a few sessions as it was 1/2 worn and to my surprise it lasted not only the whole day but another 1000km!! so over all I thought it was a great tire and on par with the PP2CT but slower turn in as it has a flatter profile so doesnt suit MY style riding ie corner whore

thanks for that,
however, I wouldn't necessarily call it a debate.. More like sourcing ideas from "experienced" folk to help out "unexperienced" folk. the greater the information, the wiser the choice.
After all, isn't that the idea of a forum..........
cheers
