I still have a BT020 on the front and a Conti Road Attack on the back.

Good replies - i might go with the Contis looking at Apes post. Anything has to be better than these standard tyres - they give no warning whatsoever in the wet. The front still has life in it but the rear is squared off.

I bought the bike 2nd hand and it had 020's on did about 500 miles on them and replaced them with conti's. Much better tyre IMHO.
As I've said in a few posts now, I got National to fit them on the bike for £140, worth a phone call anyway. I just got them to price match a place in Spennymoore that's very cheap just a little far to go from Whitley. |

 There's no end of discussion of both these in the tyre section. Buy the RAs, I like them more than the Z6s and the Pirelli Stradas. That's all you need to know, case closed.

Road attacks? Never heard of them. I was going to get Pirrelli diablos like I had on my other bikes.
