what do you guys think? i'm not that aggresive of a rider, so i figured i'd get these- i really didnt want to go with the dunlops again. they are continental conti-force-road attacks. 190/50/17--

We've had one review on them, and it wasn't good, but it's a possibility it was a tire pressure or some other issue. Somebody else I believe bought them from the guy and was supposed to give his review, but never responded. I run the Contiforce's myself, not the Road Attacks, and I love them.

Think there's been some that like them and some that don't. I was actually going to get a rear attack (not what you think) but it wouldn't be in till it was too late for the ride I had planned so I went with the Avon. Let us know how it handles and lasts.

it's crazy because i've been getting soooooo many different responses from so many people about which tires to get or not to get. i finally just went with these because i really liked the aggresive look of them and they had some good ratings--i'll keep everyone posted.

They do look good. I got a whole 2100 miles out of the set I had before I replaced them due to a blister on the front tire. I won't get another set, but I'll be interested to see how they work for you. Good luck.

BTW, I did get a full refund for the front tire.

Anyone remember the Bugs Bunny with the witch in it. When she would take off real fast there would be some hair-pins twirling in the air for a second. Thats what that pic reminds me of. :grin:

Hey, I DID give a review of Warchilds Conti Road Attacks on my bike.

http://cbr.geckobox.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14265

Update: With 1500 of my miles on them, (Warchild said he put 500 miles on them) I'm at 2/32nds in the middle. NOT GOOD.

Been e-mailing back and forth with Greg Reich at Conti. He doesn't even recommend the Contiforce on the XX, just the contiforce Max and the Road Attack.

He is surprised at my low mileage, (of course) says in their testing and with reports form Europe, they get 5-8K miles.

The front is doing great can still read the molded in words "Road Attack" in the center of the tread.

I'll run them in the Spring till I see cord on the rear, then I think I'll put on a Michelin Pilot Road, the only ST tire I haven't run.

EDIT:.....Just checked out Tires Unlimited.... :shock: I hope you didn't actually BUY there! I can get prices like that at a high priced dealer HERE.
