Hi Ken,
I found the BT-020 good only on dry roads and with not-too-high
temperatures. In fact, the second time I happened to ride under the rain I
fell down because of the front tyre that suddenly lose its grip. My first
crash after 15 years of motorcycling. I know it was my fault because I
exceeded with the front brake on the wet road, but I think that with a
better tyre things could have been different.
After that episode I decided to replace both tyres even if they were still
at 50% (~4000 km).
Now I've mounted Metzeler Z3 racing, and find them EXCELLENT. I know they
won't last more than 6-7000 km, but my safety is priceless.
Andrea
