Old ones or dual compounds?

Not calling you out but I find this really hard to believe.

If you didn't like them that's fine. But they're not a garbage tire (new ones at least). Every single person I know who's had them has absolutely loved them.

Haven't tried the dual compunds, just the old ones about five or six years ago. Hated them. No feedback, terrible traction, and really weak treadwear. I haven't ridden on Bridgestones, since. It sounds like they've improved dramatically in the last couple of years, it might be time to give them another shot. Still, I'm really not sure if I can ever trust anything Bridgestone after having so many bad experiences with them.

Fair enough.

I really liked the dual compounds and got many miles out of them (another bonus for the street). If you find a deal on them they might be worth a shot.

I had BT016 on my GSXR and they were complete crap. Slipped all the time and took forever to warm up.
