I have a set. I put them on my 2009 after getting over 10,000 miles on the stock IRC's. There is now, a definite difference in the ride and handling. They handle real well. They do not feel as unstable as the OEM's before. Responses are smooth and agile. Corners nice and tight. Seemed to take a tiny bit more to lean over at first, but I quickly dialed it in no problem. Since putting them on, I've have also taken them across the State to Deals Gap and ridden the Tail of the Dragon and other roads in that area with no problems. The tires handled great and gripped well. So far I have over 2,000 miles on this set of tires. As far as Continental tires go and their reputation, they are a major motorcycle tire sponsor and produce excellent products. Also check the NinjetteWiki for my review and tire updates.
