Default Continental Sport Attacks

I just fitted my 1995 CBR 600 F3 with a pair of these tires and I am beyond impressed. I have ridden Dunlops for years and they are great rubber, but I had no idea what I have been missing until I mounted these things.. They hold the road like a pitbull with lock jaw ! If anyone has a pair of these, I just want to know how do the hold up with tread wear. I'm a daily commuter to work and what not, so not just the standard weekend warrior.

The road attacks hold good as well, and should get you more miles. If you plan to do any hard riding or track days, then the sport attacks are probably the best bet.

Not a bad tire, but for some reason all continental tires have a REALLY stiff carcass which makes them a total pain in the ass to change by hand.

So for that reason along I won't buy them.


But yeah- a decent tire. They suck if they wear unevenly, but that's true of any tire.

i can say nothing but good stuff about the conti road attacks i have...i was thinking of maybe doing a road attack rear and sport attack combo next time i change my tires just because the front is a little softer and will give a little more grip

Well I would hope to get a little more out of them. The only time I tend to tear it up is when I am on the interstste from time to time
