Conti Road Attack's

Just put some on my 12gs for £180 fitted and wondering what sort of mileage i can expect.
Initial impressions are good .Handles very nicely thankyou!

Depends how you ride, but probably in the region of 6000 miles from rear.

I just came back from having trail attacks fitted £158, but then I shop around as one dealer wanted £185

I had 020's on previously and got about 4000 out of the back and 9000 out of the front.
Think the conti's are a bit softer .Sort of answers my question really.
Interesting to see what everyone else gets in terms of mileage

Just put some on my 1150- Only had them for about 70 miles (most of it in the wet) but they seem like they have loads of grip. They do seem a lot softer than Tourances.

The front seems to grip way more and when leaned over it feels like there is loads more grip going on

Agree with other posters that I think that I wont see anywhere near the mileage of Tourances- reckon around 4-5000. We shall see.....

CONTI ROAD ATTACK

Just taken rear tyre off at 5680 punctured! but well worn. That was 4,200 around spain in 30/36 deg. in the dry, two up and well loaded, the rest solo.More grip than 020s absolutely stable at all speeds and ok on hard packed dirt roads. Also no problems in the wet. I have put a new one on the rear, the front will go to the harz in germany next week no worries. I will post mileage on front when i wear it out. oh I paid £156 for the pair fitted and balanced to loose wheels,seems good to me!

i would be happy with 5000+ .Sounds good to me .
Out of interest where did you get the tyres from at that price?

Stretch,

Check the date of the post! 07 ? in the good old days when bike tyres were cheap

I've just had a price of 212 fitted from TST in Rizley for a pair of Road attacks. which is very competitive

Leaving the Tourance EXP's alone for a bit as I find them a bit vauge for harder riding.

I'll let you know how they compare
