Hey guys I was wondering if any of you run these on your F4 and at what pressure? I have emailed Bridgestone and many Bridgestone dealers and they have all responded but been rater vague on what I should be running them at. Right now I have them at the bikes suggested psi ratings 42r and 36f but wanted to know if that is the right combo to go with any help would be great thanks.

 

You can't go wrong with what's suggested. I like to run mine a little softer in the rear, like 36. Try playing around with the pressures and see what feels good to you, with your style on your roads.

 

Rodger that I will give like 38 a shot and see what happens.

 

I am running the recommended pressure on my 1098s. I think it is 30/32 front/rear. They feel pretty good so far, but the roads are pretty cold right now.

 

I have been looking at purchasing a set of Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S20 for my bike for this spring can you give any feedback on them? I have seen several forums with good ratings but would like to hear from some CBR guys what they think of them.

 

Dropped my pressure down to 38 today instead of the usual 42, and it felt pretty good, more stable, less harsh over bumps etc so I might stick with that for now. Thanks for the tip demon.

 

SpeedFreak I would HIGHLY recommend these tires I will take some pics tomorrow and post them. I have something close to 1k, 3/4 highway 1/4 twisties, on them and they are awesome. I actually think because they are relatively cheap compared to other 'race' tires I might use these for track tires this season. They are very responsive and very sticky on the shoulders. They have really deep and well placed rain gauges, all around I have nothing to say negative towards them. My last set of tires for this bike was Dunlop Sport Max Q2s and I could write a thesis on why they sucked so may that speak for itself with this tire.

 

hey CeeBeeARguy whenever you get a chance I would love to hear your opinion on the q2's I've really only heard great things so I wouldn't mind a contrasting opinion.

 

CJardine you just let me know when and I will give my 2 cents.

 

S20's are great handling tires. I put them on my 954 when they first came out last year and ran 34 front and 34 rear. Put over 3k hard miles on them and still not worn to tread bars yet. I ran Michelin 2CT's and Pures before the S20s and they don't even compare to these tires.
