SteveFZ1 Lancaster,  PA 2003 Yamaha Fz1 Put 11,000 aggressive miles on my rear tire. Obviously it is totally shot, but I couldn't think of switching brands or models. I am totally pleased with the traction and warm-up times.

dan portland,  ME A nice tire for the price I am happy with this tire (and the free shipping from motorcycle-superstore). The Battlax BT-021 Rear Tire is replacing a michelin Pilot 2 tire. Don't know yet which is better, but the BT-021 is a great ride.

Joe Stephens Fremont,  CA Another Winner from Bridgestone "Street Vibrations" 4-day weekend in Reno was comin' up. My rear BT-014 was down to threads. Instead of buying new BT-016, decided to go for better wear-life with BT-021. Am more than pleased with grip & tread pattern. Great trip to Reno. -- JS

Kenny Smith Orange,  CA commuter Great tire for a sporty commute. I have this on the rear of my 05 KTM SMC 625 and so far it’s working out great. I haven’t ridden in the rain so I’m not sure about the wet performance but the dry performance is pretty good considering the tire is a touring tire.

justin desloge,  MO awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 I love this tire it handles like a dream in whatever u throw at it.......got 6200 on it now a probably got about 700 miles left on it this tire is awesome on the twisties, hwy, wet or dry it don’t matter if will never buy a different tire unless they stop making this one.....put this tire on a 2007 yamaha r6s and it has a ton of low end power and it still sticks to the road like it has glue on it. Told everybody in the club about this tire now 90% of them have this tire and everyone loves this tire!!!!!
