Pasi L High River,  AB Bridgestone - S11 Spitfire Sport Touring Considering the weather here I can't really tell too much, but so far for the tires that I bought I can only mention the front one because the rear is not yet installed. So for the front tire I can say that on the gravel road that I travel some 2miles before I hit the highway from home both a bit muddy weather and dry tire feels excellent. Cars usually let me go by on that road as soon as they see me coming behind. People here seem to know me and my driving. On the highway it is harder to tell because we have 100km/hr (about 60miles/hr) speed limit and not many curves on that road (it is different to drive 70miles/hr on the dirt road that on the highway). I need to do some more driving to be able to give honest answer. I can only say that the tire is better than my previous one. I have 650 Yamaha Maxim and only problems that I have is on the freshly graded loose gravel and on that bike I think it doesn't matter much what tires you are using on the fresh gravel. So for the 500 or so miles traveled I have to say that I am very satisfied for the tire and hope that the rear one will give me the same results. For my rating I couldn't state wet traction and tread life because I haven't driven in the rain or wet pavement and for the tread life the distance is too short to say anything.

Darren G St. Peters,  MO Spitfire on XS650 - Great Combo! I had this tire recommended to me by fellow XS riders. True to form, the tire has been a great match to my brat style bobber. I feel very confident on the tire and that is what counts! The service I received from Motorcycle Superstore was great. No hidden charges and the tire shipped and arrived when they said it would. I believe I paid a fair price for the tire and would recommend this tire to anyone with a Yamaha XS series bike.

Bill Leonardtown,  MD Sticky and cheap! Great Value This tire replaced a Metzeler Lazertec front tire on a Triumph America. I am impressed that this tire, with an S11 on the rear as well; outperform the original Metzelers in all conditions. These tires stick extremely well, track through corners perfectly and quickly become trustworthy in any riding situation. I have yet to find a flaw after hundreds of miles.

John B North Richland Hills,  TX Bridgestone S11 Spitfire Front Tire LOVE this tire so far. The ride is very stable and the grip to the road is excellent. Even on wet roads the grip is excellent. So far, I'm thrilled with this tire and I highly recommend this brand over Dunlop.

G.L.H. marshall,  WI good value for $ This is the second set of these I have had. Good tread life, reasonable traction. NOT for use on your crotch rocket. Great value for $ for your cruiser or 'standard'. Remember these are bias-ply tires, not radials.

Ron Cooper Marion,  NC Bridgestone - S11 Spitfire Didn't rate tires for wet traction due to the fact I have yet to ride in any real rain with them. didn't rate the tread life do to the fact that I have only had them a month and aprox. 1000 Miles. I like the tire, it handles well, the tires I switched from were Duro HF-918F and Duro HF-918R. So far I like them much better, They have more sipes than the Duro's and are a better handling tire

Russ Houston,  TX Dont know yet Just put this on as an OEM replacement on a Honda Rebel. Tire a bit too big so had to pull the front fender off to obtain clearance. Rides well, but still not sure about how to deal with the no fender clearance issue.

Christina Hamilton,  OH great buy I would tell anyone to give these tires a try. Not only do they have excellent dry traction, but they have pretty stable wet traction as well. I have had these for over 4,000 miles and haven't had any problems. They look great, and they feel even better.

Barbara Sacramento,  CA So far so good I've only had these new tires on for about a week and am now having some other work done on my bike, but for the short rides I've taken they seem to do the job.
