Bridgestone Battlax BT46 100/90-16 54H Front Motorcycle (12325)
Purchased from: American Moto Tire
I have about 2000 miles on them so far and really am enjoying them. The BT46s corner really well and allow a nice confident lean. Chicken stripes all the way to the edge
Perfectly stable on the highway, no problems so far with rough paved or dirt roads, tar snakes or grooved pavement.
I have not rode them yet in rain but will report back when I do.
*mounting note:
Front slips right on, rear was a bit more challenging to fully seat, inflating / deflating did the trick. Easy to balance, Bridgestone tire heavy mark is yellow.
Valve Stems: BikeMaster 90 Degree Valve Stems

---BT46S....very big step up in comfort and handling, Sinkos are not a bad tire in any way but my first few rides on the BT46 made me feel like Rossi.
