    Thanks, and yes I have. I've owned four gixxer 1000s from new, and they all came with Bridgestone tyres on them, as did my first (and present) 750.
    They're good in the wet, and have a predictable feel about them.
    If you've been to any MotoTT trackdays this year, you may have seen an un-assuming bloke punting a grey/silver K7 GSX-R750 around... he is ex-NZ superbike champ Russell Josiah, he quite liked the 014s, but then again, what would he know....

    Sweet Jesus bleeding from his palms on a wooden cross!!!!!!!!!!!

    Do you get a free BJ with every tyre?

    I'd recommend the Conti Sport Attack. You should get a pair for under $550. Wear well too.

    I'd love to... but unfortunately in a job dictated by the weather gods, the weather has been crap, and I've got lots of work to catch up on.
    As a matter of interest, you can see when a tyre was manufactured. There is a four numeral code on them, the first two numbers are the week, and the last two are the year. eg code 2606 means the 26th week of 2006. Can be quite a good reference

    Been running bt014 on the front and bt021 on the back.

    They warm up quick and have saved my a number of times when I have gone trough melted tar or cow pot in the rain.

    I'd recommend bt021 for your back - that the dual compaund one. Harder in the middle for comutting and have the soft compound of the bt014 on the sides.
