[ST] BT0**



The BT010s, according to Bridgestone are the replacement for the BT 57s and the BT020s are the replacement for the BT 50s, although a great improvement over the BT57s.  But then just about anything is! And the BT010s are an improvement over the original BT 56s. The BT012SS is the replacement for the BT56SS and both are decent sport tires, although as in the case of all Bridgestones, a bit slow steering. There is a new BT011 available, but I forgot what it's for.

So I have put 2K on the ST. Very happy so far. Although I wish it did
not have parking lights - don't ask.

The original BT57 front now has 15.5K on it! Even though it looks better
than it has a right to it is time for it to go.

I ordered a set of BT010's.

The thing is the rear tire was almost new when I got the bike and has a
lot of life left in it. Being as fronts last longer than rears I would
like to leave it on and eventually replace it with the BT010.

Has anyone had a BT56SS rear with a BT010 front? I read somewhere that
the BT010 replaced the BT56SS so I would guess it is an OK combination.
