Hey guys, anybody tried the Z6 or continetal road attacks. Both have a 0 degree belt design. I would like to run a sport compound up fron and a sport touring in the back to cut down on so much wear. What are you guys running?
How in the he** did you get 5600 miles one the OEM rear? My wear bars are showing and I've only got 2850 miles on mineJust wore out my first rear (5600miles) and slapped on another BT56. When this ones gone (around Spring) thinking of going with Pilot Powers or Sportecs.

I've got a Pilot Power rear I'm getting ready to put on - we'll see how that does
+1I am partial to the Metzler Sportec M1s (the ones specifically made for the busa). Wearing great even after a whole season of drag racing. Can't even see a flat spot. I will go with them again next time too.
+1oem seems to be pretty damn good. I plan on sticking with it.
Agreed M1's work for me. Bought a few set's through cyclegear.com at $159.99 it was a no brainer.+1I am partial to the Metzler Sportec M1s (the ones specifically made for the busa).

The Michilen Pilot Road has long tread life.I have run almost everything now but pirelli and shinkos. I either gonna go with the continental road attack or a shinko 005 up front and the 009 raven in the rear. I ride my bike different that most in being that I use it almost entirely for transportation and not so much as just a weekend ride. Don't get me wrong, but I love these super sticky tires that come on the bikes like the bt56 and powers, but they wear out too quickly in the middle due to my interstate rider in Knoxville. I have a 50 mile round trip I make to college night classes frequentely. I just looking for the most life without being dangerous.
