Someone should tell that fellow the Bridgestone BT023 was replaced a couple years ago by the T30 and the T30 Evo.

Then who better to educate this guy? YOU said someone should tell this guy that the 023 was replaced by the T30. Who better to do it than someone wih a vast record of information such as yours? Let us know what his response is if you don't mind.

I posted a comment on his You Tube channel. I wasn't the first to mention it.

My problem with his reviews is that they are too general. When I read reviews in the magazines, the writers report on responsiveness, what the tires feel like - heavy steering when slow, perhaps very sensitive to wrong tire pressures, etc. This guy is just talking price and what the tread pattern looks like and the fact that only the PR4 has sipes to channel water. Not a complete review.

FYI, BT-023's are the standard tire on new FJR's and still available.

As recent OEM fitments BT023s are still available in sizes for the NC700X and the FJR as OEM replacements. These particular sizes and one other rear size are the only 023s available as new stock. The T30 and T30 Evo have replaced the 023 in a full line. That's what I meant to say, sorry if I was unclear.
