If you buy the new BT-003 R/S's be careful with them when they are cold. The rears are slippery as shit before they are heated up on the street. Took a ride in the morning at 53 degrees outside temperature and just about got put on my ass on the first mid speed corner at mid lean angle.
In the colder months, I recommend running a lower tire pressure to help them heat up faster.
They really felt slippery like race slicks cold. Have not experienced a street DOT tire like this one before that was so slippery when cold.
Tires do perform well after heated. Noticed that they have a pretty stiff carcus that is supposed to help with late breaking and exiting corners but also contribute to slick ass tire when cold.
Be careful.
