ContiRoad Attacks

Have now completed 600 miles with these on the CBR and have found them to be excellent. Used them in the wet today (first time it's rained in a month :shock: ) and there were no buttock clenching moments :D

Best of all they were only £140 for a pair :D If they last anywhere near as long as Z6's, I'll def. be getting some more.

What they like on the turn in ? Toyed with a set next as they were a damned good price per pair as you mentioned.

I.ve fitted a set and done approx 1200 miles . I find that the bike changes direction quickly at speed although at lower speeds it seems to require more effort. (could be just me) . They have loads of side grip in dry or proper wet conditions and don't really want to spin up at all. I fitted them in a bout of damp freezing conditions and initially had flashbacks to the old style contiforce tyres that i had fitted a while back . I think this was just the genuinely slippery roads combined with the quicker turn in.
The only thing is possibly the wear rate. in wet cold conditions i've used over 1 mm of tread from 6mm total . I'll know in a couple months.
