Have them on a sports tourer, great in the sun and snow! putting them on my sports bike in January.

Grip is great - I've never exceeded its maximums, I'm no pro but its fine on Silverstone on a CBR600 as well as my big ol' Yam TDM900 on wet, dry or snowy roads. Still going good tread depth after a whole years use and if I'm lucky I might make it through next summer.

None yet, perhaps the price, but i think the price has come down a bit lately (or it was my funny wheel size)

Would recommend - I'm going to have both my bikes wearing them.

Excellent all round tyres

Very good grip in dry, not bad in the wet stuff either! The price, miles for your money. The turn in on these tyres is very predictable(nuetral feel)unlike other tyres that tend to drop in rather than turn in. They warm up quickly and the wear rate is great.

None that i have came across yet.

I would recommend these tyres to anyone whether on a tourer or a fire blade. I really have put these to the test unlike some that write reviews on forums. Ive done motorways, back roads, heavy rain, damp roads and even a track day at cadwell. As a sports touring tyre you expect them to deliver high mileage and be good in the wet which they do, but what i did'nt expect was the high levels of dry grip you get. You have to push hard and be right on the edge of the tyre to make these step out, at an intermediate level these will not let you down regardless of what you ride!

So far, so good! Good grip in the wet and good feedback and feel.

The tyres feel solid and predictable which inspires confidence in the corners. I had BT021s on my old bike and they lasted really well so I'm hoping these will last at least as well.

The front tyre on my K1300S felt a little light although this is probably just the tyres bedding in and the change from the worn out tyres I replaced.

I've been pleased with tyres from Bridgestone for a long time and I have no doubt these tyres will be just as good. I've put a couple of hundred miles on them so far and they've been great in both the dry and torrential rain!

Lots of miles out of these bad boys., purchased last year, rear only now starting to hit the wear bars..

Good high miles, front still good after 5000 miles, the rear has done 7500 miles and only now starting to square off a bit. The front is good especially, good confidence inspiring 'feel'.
On a variety of surfaces, these tyres wont let you down.
Will be sticking with these.. If it aint broke ! etc etc

Not much to moan about really....

Bridgestone 023 tyres offer good all round performance.
Whether caning it in a straight line or hitting the twisties.
Wet and dry conditions they keep you upright
