Worst Tire I have ever tried, and I have tried many brands, mind you, I do not think Bridgestone is a bad brand, their S22 are legendary good, but this model in particular came on my Yamaha 600 Fazer and it is just a plastic donut, slips in the wet like it´s full of oil. In the dry it does ok but if you ride aggresively it does slip too, they last a very long time, I have done more than 5000km and they still look almost new, but the performance is lacking, I would not recommend this tire unless you ride like a granny on sunny days. For me, Michelin has the best wet weather tires, followed by Dunlop and Pirelli. But I am sure other brands, including Bridgestone have better tires. Hope this helps.

I bought a pair of the Bridgestone BT 30 EVOs for my 2006 FJR May 20 2020. May have 600 miles on the them and the left side of the front is worn to the cords. The rear is great. I've never had a front tire wear that bad that fast. I've been riding since 1965. I ran Bridgestone BT 20 and never had an issue.

Motorcycle Tyre, matched set front & rear: 120/70/17 180/55/17
I got the bike with these tyres on. I've never been a Bridgestone fan but heard good things about these tyres. They are down to about 2mm of tread in the centre with about 5-6k miles on them. For a sport touring tyre where the centre is not that soft it's not a good tyre life. I get more from a Michelin Pilot Power 2CT which is a sportier all round tyre.
My biggest criticism of theses tyres except the wear is the feedback - there isn't any. You can't tell when they are warm or cold, or if you are close to the edge of adhesion. You have to use your instinct and hope it is right. I've not had any slides or wheels spin up so the grip is there but it doesn't give that re-assuring feedback. The feedback on the compound does not reflect either - very little in the way of colour change and tread surface marks. My guess here would be the compound is not soft enough to be affected without pushing on very hard and getting a lot of heat in to the tyre.
Overall a good tyre, but not one i bonded with or felt like i could comfortably push on when on an inspiring piece of road.

Good tyres. Bought the original set in Oct 2017 & just had the front replaced with another T30 Evo.
They take a while to warm up in the winter months but once at warm temperatures are very good.
Excellent grip in the wet & even better in the dry. I've had my bike right over and they held their position on the road. They're easy to flick round corners.
Wear is ok. Front wears down quicker than rear. I got about 8500 miles off the front. The rear is still going strong with excellent wear pattern.

I ride mostly highway with a little bit inside the city. I also took the motorcycle on a roadtrip from the Netherlands to Croatia last summer. Over the past 18 months I have ridden more than 27,000km with these tyres. I do not know how many kilometers they've done since I got them used with the motorcycle (looked fairly untouched at the time, but were not new). The front tire has now still 1000km to go according to the garage and rear 4000km. They have given me great grip in all type of weather condition: From the hot Croatian summer to light snow on a Dutch winter day, I have always had the feeling they have good grip and comfort.

Had these fitted to my FJR1300A. I use BT 023's and wanted to see the improvement from these tyres. My initial impression was great. They are precise and make the bike feel lighter and accurate. On long slow bends they are fantastic. The bike drops down and flicks back up-confidence inspiring!! I have ridden them on all combination of roads including Europe. They have now done 6k miles. Only at 5.5K did a flat line appear on both front and back tyres. However, this flat line could not be felt when riding and had no adverse effect on the tyre performance. They warm up quickly (experience has taught me to take it steady for the first 10 miles of the ride!!) and have proven to be excellent in the wet (torrential downpour). They are a superb tyre for the FJR both for touring with luggage and pillion and also having a bit of fun when out with other bikers. I would buy them again and recommend to others? They boasted 20% more mileage, with 023's I gained 8500miles, with these I am looking at a hopeful 10K. At the moment, there is still plenty of meat on both tyres.

so I bought these tyres for my bandit as when I bought the bike the tyres were squared off. these tyres provide great levels of grip, never had it slip out on me, however when its wet I ride to conditions so never pushed them in the wet. typically I take a lot of pillions when riding and I can still crank it all the way over minus about 2/3mm. the lean in isn't too quick however it can take a bit of getting used to. the tyres are warm within a few minutes of average road riding but when cold it seems to dip over really quick. this might just be me though haha. never had an issue when it comes to stability either at low or high speed even if its 120 round a fast corner. typically my rear tyre lasted about 7-8 thousand and my front tyre is at 11k and its getting towards finished.
on these tyres I have done over 300 miles of motorway miles in a day on more than one occasion and they weren't even slightly squared off, great commuting tyre aswell as a great tyre for a back road blast, don't think id use it on a track though.
I have great trust in these tyres, would probably buy again. highly recommend.

So far done with my bike (2010 Kawasaki ER6N) for about 3000km. Handling is good for dry & also caught up in heavy rain twice, the wet corner grid was superb at 80km/h. Worth for the money. Definitely will buy next time.

Suit the ZZR & my riding style really well with much improved road life over the S20 Evo's. Showing 6,000mls of even wear from hard mountain riding and just about to be replaced with another pair of the same T30 Evos. A little bit less top end feel/feedback and glue like grip that the S20's has but hey this is a real world tyre and will do everything you ask of it with reliable feel & consistent grip.
