I have used these on the track on a cold, but sunny October day and they were producing enough grip to get my knee down. Generally in warm, dry conditions they will suit most road riding. However it's not to say I haven't had them slip even on a good day. But, if you fancy scaring yourself ringing, just add water, and not a lot; a terrible tyre in the rain and even damp conditions. Slips when accelerating even when upright, requiring progressive acceleration and cornering just stops being fun! I wouldn't look to purchase these.

Writing about the Bridgestone Battlax BT 023 given 89% (180-55-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
Have had many different tyres over the years on various bikes (maninly sports) and must say these have been the best of the lot. On my recent fireblade and now CB1000R I have used BT 014's, 015's, 016's, 021's as well as many other makes. These give plenty of feedback and inspire me to ride quicker and corner faster and have been excellent in the wet. They also seem to be wearing well and I have replaced tyres at a lot less miles then what these have currently done.
All in All a very good tyre that I would use again and recommend.

Generally good at most things. Original fitted by Honda on my CB1,000 R

However worn out in only 3,000 miles of not very hard riding !!!
