Bridestone BT-010 BATTLAX - kalbusa - 11-04-2010
I have 2010 Hayabusa LO, just done 4715klm on the clock and my rear tyre has shit it self how many k's should you get? Don't say it from doing 300klh because Bridgeston speed rate them for doing 270+ km/h or 168+ Mph, the front tyre looks like new still. Also i have done no burn outs. Also does anyone recomend a good tyre to get? this my first Hayabusa and i love it.

Another member - Timmy o Tool, just got 23000kms out of his Pilot Road 2 on the rear! I reckon these are good. Having said that, most of the Michelon's are coming outta Thailand now, will this affect longevity?? Who knows!

hey kal,
If you're lookin' for a great compromise between grip and outstanding mileage, I (along with a few others in the club) can highly recommend the Avon Storm ST.
I've been running a set for a few 1,000 k's now and I cannot fault them at all. With the very aggressively deep tread pattern.....I'm actually lookin' forward
to a big, long ride in the wet !!! 
Give 'em a try
.....I'd be surprised if you were disappointed with them?!?keep it fun,
baz.

Same same Bazbloke - the Storms are a fantastic tyre. 10k out of the back when it went into the wear indicators, and they inspire confidence with their feedback.
great tyre.
