I've got the OEM ones at the mo (no triple compound on the rear) and only single compound on the front.

I hated BT 014s (in fact I swore I'd never get Bridgestones again) but these came fitted to the bike and I really like them. They seem really stable and composed, warm up well, and provide good amounts of grip in the wet.

I'd recommend them.

unless you can find old stock you wont be having any more 014s as they stopped making them so im told. i used them for my last three tires and just gone to a 016 on the front as i couldnt get an 014.

i was knee down on the first outing on the font 016. the gsxr has them too and i quite like them, havnt haad any nastyness yet.

Summation - sticky as all get out but don't go planning on touring or commuting with them as you will flat spot them very quickly.
