Rich (Spokane Valley, WA)
Bridgestone BT-021 Rear Tire on my '01 Bandit 1200S
I installed a BT-021 on the rear. I purchased this BT-021 for its advertised dual-compound tread and projected longer life. So far I have almost 4k miles on this rear tire, and it is wearing just fine. But I've noticed during high cross winds, the rear tire wants to slide sideways out from under me!?! I've noticed this several times on the freeway, so I just slow down and take the side roads instead. I'm running the specified 36 psi front & rear. So buyer beware!

Bridgestone Battlax 021 rear
Stable in the rain and cold, great in hot weather. Wear is to be expected to low since the Connie 14 is a 700 pound sport bike I'm expecting 4K to 5K miles with a mix of sport and touring.

FZ8 OEM TIRE
Great overall tire. Cornering is great as long as you don't lean it all the way, gets kinda unstable when you get close to using all the tire. Never had an issue in the rain, feels planted to the ground. Got about 7k out of it still have a tad bit left but doesn't feel safe. Great tire for price is my overall thought.

Tom (Springvale, ME)
BT 021 rear tire
Bought this tire for my '04 ST 1300 because it was supposed to provide longer tread life BUT it doesn't. The OEM BT020 were excellent performers and I got at least 9000 miles out of each of the first two sets of tires. My BT021's are about toast after 5000 miles. They handle well but no better than the OEM's so Don't waste your money if you are looking for more mileage.

Battlax BT-021
This is a fantastic tire. I have used these on a 2002 CBR 954RR, and a 2004 CBR1000RR. They offer excellent traction right off the bat, and give seemingly limitless confidence. I would typically get a minimum of 15,000 km for a set, and I would say I am a reasonably aggressive rider. No chicken strips here. I love this tire, and HIGHLY recommend it.

Best so far
Installed on my 07 1200RT. Commuting freeway and city every day and I’m very pleased. Had Metzler Sportechs before but these are great in dry and wet, lasted over 10K miles. Highly recommendable.

Roel (San Antonio, TX)
Battlax 021
Got caught in a rain storm on the way home from work, fortunately it had been raining all day so the oil/trash was gone. The tire had 14miles on it so I was very gentle with the bike but it felt rock solid all the way home, I even got away with a corner acceleration on a 90degree turn. The bike and tires felt firm on the road.

BT021
I run these tires on my 2007 Z1000 they hold up to Deals gap, long Hwy miles and they both go out around the same time. I have also drag raced on them. This last set got me 6,000 miles. But this time I am going to get the BT023
