new treads Friday! - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

I've got almost 8k on my Michelin Pilot Roads, but really wanted to try the Conti Road Attacks this time. I can't wait to get them put on this Friday, for about the same price the Pilot Roads were going to cost me. The Road 2 are still just too expensive for me right now...

maybe Sat. morning I can go break them in

Let us know how you like 'em after you've got them on.

I have used them on several bikes, including a FZ6. They are a good tire for the money.

Always heard great things about them. They will be my next after my stockers wore out. Overall at SBN I think they alongwith the Diablo Strada and BT-016 are the best allround ST tires...

Well, I had to finish off the old Pilot Roads right?

Holy Smokin' Burnout Batman _that's a good one!

well, they're WAY different than the Michelins

Got the first 27 miles on them this morning, since I couldn't get away all weekend.

It feels like I'm riding on the peak of a V V instead of the crown of a U U . As soon as I start a turn it wants to keep going and carve. I can't wait to hit a few twisties on the way home tomorrow. I'll check back in here on Wed. after I can get into them a little.
