Thanks for the info, guys! Tire prices have gone up a lot, and the 002s are a bit less expensive. NESBA is switching from Pirellis to Dunlops this year. Never used Dunlops, I'd probably try them, but I hear better things about Pirelli, Michelin, Bridgestone.... we'll see.

Front feels more planted to me ..but that could be the new suspension...
Rear tire feels exactly the same with better wear... |

I would like to know since I research things before I need it....
I had seen on a web site about Bridgestones BT 003's that it is a good aggressive street tire and track day tire. It sounds similar to the old Diablo Corsa. The Corsa were always my favorite and have been looking for that similar type tire. Is this the tire or are there others that some of you may recommend? I had the DCIII's on the last bike and I didn't enjoy them. Weird of me to say and I am not a fan of Dunlop, but their OEM's are actually decent...I was thinking Qualifiers too but with the Dunlop name, I am not too sure I can trust them. Thanks |
Hey Billy, hows it going man? The BStone street tire/track day tire they're talking about is the BT-003 R/S...not be be confused with the all out BT-003 race DOT. The 003 R/S would be comparable to the DCIII, maybe even a tad better. Hope this helps, good to see ya around :cheers:

Thanks Joe, the DCIII's I was not happy about, I did however like the diablo corsa. The BT-003 R/S you speak of, are they dual compound like the dcIII and 2 CT? My last bike handled like shit after putting those on and never regained trust in the tires after I researched and asked questions about why I kept getting the feel of losing grip, I did drop the psi to 32 f/r but helped a little. Anyway, as we all know, we kill tires so fast so I would rather know what I'm getting ahead of time. Thanks for the response, and I'm doing ok, Life is keeping me busy but always time for play :nod2: How about yourself? |
Not sure exactly how the R/S's are and I don't want to give out any wrong info. Check this article out http://www.superbike.co.uk/news/BRID...ws_279276.html
Some more info here: http://mc.bridgestone.co.jp/en/produ...x/bt003rs.html Things are good here too...being in the middle of track season is a plus. |

Not the tires (tyres) lol I have no experience with Bridgestones, While I asked Ron as well what he recommends, we went through his book and he did say BS but not too many people are crazy over them, yet they are the Motogp tire this year, so go figure. The Power Ones looked doable but the sticker on those are really high. I was leaning at the BS 003, Diablo Rosso (but now no go, replaces the Diablo street), 2CT, Dunslop Qualifiers. I believe the BS 003 were the cheapest per set. Thanks for this info, I will have to keep studying and make a decision as time gets closer, which will be pretty fast. |
lol :crackup: i think ur good wit dem rubbers
