SPORT TOURING Tires

Perhaps! I've never run those on anything. Is it spring yet?

 

LOL! Right?!!

WTF ... I was already riding regularly up here by now. Winter is being a bi-polar bitch this year.

There's a very good chance I'll be out your way this year (sorta). Visiting my riding buddy from Richmond, VA and riding to WV with him and his son.

 

WV has some spectacular riding and very low population density. Chime in if you need any route advice when we're nearer to the dates.

 

Will do, though I suspect my buddy knows it well - he rides it a lot. LOL!

 

Perhaps we'll get invited.

 

I always welcome other riders to ride along!!!

 

I'm about to run my Q3+ set on the track this week. I'm interested in the RSIII after this and what I've read online. I've ridden the T30 EVO hard in canyons, not on the track. I've ridden the PR4 on the track and it is a slippery tire, definitely not intended to be used as a sport tire! I found it would slide out when throttle was applied on the side of the tire. I'm curious how much gas can be given on the edge. Throttling out of a turn was an exercise in restraint with the PR4 tires. IMO, that's a great touring tire, but not very sport oriented at all.

In your experience, how much throttle could you apply leaned over? The T30evo rear could take a good amount. Aside from buying two tires to test, I'll look to other's experience.

 

A few weeks ago I was going to order a new set of Bridgestone Battlax T31 for my ride. I was looking at $330.oo with a visda rebate of $50. 00 to bring the cost down to $280.00.
I just ordered from motosport a few minutes ago and end up getting them for $259.55 out the door.
