Cheap Bridgestone

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by SP4S, Oct 23, 2014.

  1. Saw this another site, before i order one for my 2002 fireblade which im using to commute on, anyone had any experience with the tyre? it doesnt appear to be an outright sports tyre, but should be ok for commuting i guess, and at that price.

    All comments welcome.

  9. I used s20s on my sv650 track bike in wet and dry. I'm pretty much ok in the fast group on that bike, but not at race pace or owt. SV's lighter and less horses than a blade, obviously, but I loved them. Stuck like glue and very predictable.

    I think Ron Haslam race school used them (might still), but not 100% on that.

  11. Ordered a pair (front and rear) for £138 delivered, will have them fitted locally for £5 a tyre.
    Bike tyre supplier locally wants £270 fitted for the same tyre. Doh

  14. I need some 18" sporty tyres soon but it doesn't look like they do them :( Continental Road Attack 11 is what I want...
