Highest Rated UHP A/S tire

I'm a little mad at Michelin right now. Their Pilot Sport AS 3+ is a good match for what kind of tire I'm looking for (based on reviews).

Unfortunately, they don't offer a 275/40R20 for the rear.

So, it's between the Conti and the BFG......

The DWS06 is supposed to have mushier turn in than the BFGs, so I'm looking for opinions about the two tires.

BF Goodrich G-Force Comp 2 AS vs. Continental Extreme Contact dws06.

Help please?

I love my BFG's... snow, ice, sleet, rain... no problem! They even handle in dry weather. Price? Bonus!

Like your Feejer too, BTW.

Thanks, I really love my bike!


Is the turn-in crisp with the BFGs?

I have a Concours 14, love it.

Yeah, I have no problems with how it handles in turns... matter of fact, I love how it doesn't grab every nook and cranny like the GYF1's did... more predictable to me.

Can't go wrong with the BFG's they give you top ranked performance for a good budget price.
