I ran the s21 and S22. Never gave me any doubts. Rain, frozen roads, on their edge aggressive riding. Putting down 200hp. 300+kph, touring. About 30,000km. Never gave me any doubts.

@PidarBlyad 8 месяцев назад

yours lasted 30,000km?

@mattchrich957 7 месяцев назад

Not a chance I imagine thats the total mileage he did in total on that rubber. I've got a 2023 MT10 and my S22's are getting ready and i'm just over 1500 miles. Going to give the S23's a whirl having seen this i think@@PidarBlyad

@sebg2086 4 месяца назад

frozen road.......lol did you stud them?>

@larryhouse3776 4 месяца назад

@afiq42 no they don't last that long lmao. But I kept buying them back to back because I liked them so much. 30 thousand in total. I got about 7 or 8 thousand km out of a rear tire. 10 thousand or more on a front.

@larryhouse3776 4 месяца назад

@sebg2086 I was still on pavement, not ice. But yes, I ran them at -10 celcius a few times and they weren't terrible. Of course I was being very careful.

@marcoaguiar3226 3 месяца назад

Some would say the Michelin power 6 is better in everything so we need a serious head to head comparison with lap times, cornering speed and stability etc.

Warms my heart to know that you’re in my country. I’m from Pretoria, 30 minutes away from where you were. 15mins on a bike. I hope the summer weather is kind on you. Back to bikes. I’m running the S22s on my Triumph Speed Triple 1200RR. And I gotta say. I love it. It’s my first set. And I’ll definitely be trying the S23. If you don’t mind. Please make a quick feedback vid of your SA experience. Would love to know what you think about our beloved country. Would be nice to bump into you.

@ItsTonioCyka Месяц назад

how many miles or km have you gotten out of the S22 mate? I own a Street Triple and I am currently on the original Pirellis it came with and I am thinking of changing for the Bridgestones. Thanks in advance!

@jdubt8046 4 месяца назад

@chorseundgrd 8 месяцев назад

I had the S21 OEM on my S1KRR and ran them to the chord. Switched to Pirelli and was much happier. Nothing beats Pirelli for me. Bridgestones are "aight" imo but different strokes for different folks

@raed1953 6 месяцев назад

Im thanking to switch to the rosso 4 did you try it ?

@chorseundgrd 6 месяцев назад

@@raed1953 Yep I got Rosso 4 Corsas. About 1500 miles on them so far and they're awesome. Heat up quick and a ton of grip. I can't speak for the track but for canyon carving, I love them. Really great feeling on the side of tire during lean which I didn't feel on the Bstones

@raed1953 6 месяцев назад

@@chorseundgrdthat’s it im going with rosso for sure but im confused with prices because I will take it online , we don’t have them here in Middle East , any website suggestions ?

@chorseundgrd 6 месяцев назад

@@raed1953 I would try some of the EU retailers that ship internationally

@jdubt8046 4 месяца назад

It's the price difference. I would have tried the Pirelli Angel GT2s, but the price! I'm on a ZX-14R too so I need a tougher compound than the Rossis.

@Tinker3504 8 месяцев назад

Loved the S22. I bet I’d love the S23. If I ever road track on a bike I also run on the street, I really think they are the play over something like a Power 5. I run a Road 6 on my MT-09 that never sees a track. It’s smokes hypersport and pure track tires in road conditions and temps.

@Bogdangati4 7 месяцев назад

Road 6 are better than the S22 Hypersport that came from the factory ?

@Tinker3504 7 месяцев назад

@@Bogdangati4 on the ROAD, no comparison. I smoke folks running their hypersport tires(s22, s23, power 5's, etc...) on the street. Now on the track, yeah they would dust me. If you wanna go from cruising at 40-70mph behind Sally in her civic to a posted 30-45mph twisty section of road and you are scraping, Road 6 will bite instantly. Think of it this way... hypersport tires run a warm up lap to reach operating temps right? Imagine not doing the warm up lap. Thats street riding.

@Bogdangati4 7 месяцев назад

I asked you because I had Road 5 on CB650F, and now my MT09 came from the factory with S22 Hypersport which I am currently using and I love them. I did not feel the need to warm them up as they warm up really fast in summer weather. Talking about street only.@@Tinker3504

@pines2000 Месяц назад

Just got a 24 street triple rs. Really conflicted on s23/power 6 or a sport touring tire like roadsmart 4 or maybe road 6. I live in south carolina, wont be doing track days. Mostly just cruising around in the country. Also roads here are mostly horrible condition. Any opinions anyone? Also im not very concerned about wet grip, will be avoiding rain as much as i can.

@AJS24DH Месяц назад

80% of the people or more will never and could never push this tire or any tire for that matter to its potential especially on the street or mountains or wherever. I’ve been riding 50 years now and have tried multiple different types of tires 😂 and have never had any issues with most of them , my go to is Bridgestone 99% of the time . That being said , lean angle equals risk and on the street could easily equal pain or discomfort or worst . The best riders in the world don’t risk it on the road. Tires are a small part of the equation. Pick what you like best and go with it . Be patient and safe !! ✌🏻 Btw …. Focus on trail braking and learn it good and you’ll be quicker no matter what tires you have .

@wrightracing11 7 месяцев назад

Genuine questing. How is this a test. And how did this reader get an invite. Riding round off line and doesn’t even use full gas on the straights. You could use tyres made of wood to give grip at that commuting pace. Absolutely pointless.
