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.

Paul.

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.

Do you have the link from visordown?

visordown ?

I think he means the visor shop.com (crossan motorcycles) i got a set today, i got the last back tyre but he says he will get more in and the price will be the same with free bottle of cleaner.

ah, yes used these for ages for new 090's, by far the cheapest around. and superb service too

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.

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
