Not sure pal but I can vouch for the 090's on track, fantastic grip, plenty good enough to leave snot blobs on the edges and grind the pegs (and the toes out of my boots!!). I find them really predictable.

Just taken delivery of a new set of bt090's from Crossan Motorcycles in NI. (thevisorshop.com) £185 delivered for standard nc30 sizes, plus they threw in a 1L bottle of muc off bike cleaner free of charge too!
Brilliant. :0)

I'm going down to get a set of them now, is the front a 120/60 or a 120/70?

It's personal choice, a 70 profile will help the bike tip in to the corner quicker. Some don't like it, I do.

I've got 090's on my VFR and they've worn out in a year
Anyone heard of mix and matching? Someone I know uses the sticky BT090 for the front and the more 'touring' style BT092 (I think) for the rear.
A roaring V4 is the summer soundtrack.

i wish a set of bt090s lasted me a year , i only ride on the road , and that means going and back from work , and then all my own time riding weekends /evenings ,/days off , last year from may to now ive had two back tyres and will in next couple of weeks have to get a front tyre so thats three tyres in 6-7 months , im not jusy saying it but i do ride very hard on the road as you wont find no chicken strips on my tyres :lol , but i will always use bt090 as i love the grip of them and tryed a friends bike with bt092 and just didnt like them , each to own i guess
