Title: Conti sport attack or road attack tires
Post by: 695LAM on June 28, 2008, 08:29:21 PM
Has anyone tried any one of these two tires on their monsters?  I have  a 695 and need to get some new tires and  was looking at one of these.   Thanks for any advice.

I had a pair of Road Attacks on my 900SP two years ago I think.   I wasn't really impressed with them, they wore faster than I expected.  I replaced them with Diablo Stradas which not only wear better but also feel like they have a better grip.

I've got sport attacks on right now, I'm very happy with them.

I have run road attacks on my 800ss and sport attacks on my k1200s, I have done Arkansas trips and Track Days (two of which were back to back days) with the both and really enjoyed them both, I couldn't believe the sport attacks stuck just as good or better than my powers and I like the profile better. Got good wear out of them and the place I ordered them from out of TN it was 225.00 for a set delivered. I will be sticking with the conti's for a while

i run the road attacks on both my monster and my supermoto.  i like them, and will stay with them, or maybe moving up to the sport attacks because they are about 5 bucks cheaper.

Road attacks will be my next set of tires for my 695 I rode a S2 with them and they felt solid. Good grip and they look cool. Maybe a road attack in back and a sport in front. My fronts dont seem to wear that fast, I am on Stradas now my stock tires (rear) went after 3K

I'm on my 3rd set of sport attacks, and they wear better than a pair of Pirelli corsa III's I had on before.  I'm happy with them, and for the price, I'll be staying with Conti's for a while too!  [thumbsup]
