  • Conti Road Attack Review

    I have been riding with the Continental Road Attack tires for a week now. I went with the 160 rear and there is a little difference in the handeling. I have rode Deals Gap twice this week, and the Cherohala Skyway. I am very happy with the performance, tires stick to the road great with no slips, I was able to increase my speed from the stock Dunlops. Going into corners you do have to push a little harder on the bars to initiate the turn, and same on coming out of corners. While going through a curve the bike tracks great, and holds the line better. Best way to explain performance is that the bike feels connected to the road through the twisties. Great tires.

              That's because you can go a little faster. try turning at 10 mph, then try at 80 mph. It's a little harder if your going faster...

              Great tires though, I'm almost ready for another set

                  LOL your not going to be taking any of the corners around here at 80 mph.

                  I was comparing the handling of the stock tires with 150 rear to running a 160 rear. With a 160 your cornering is not as quick and you have to push a little more on the bars when your cornering.

                  So far I like the Road Attacks, hopefully I will get decent mileage out of them.
