I am already running a CT on my Honda Aero and love it I was searching on what to put on the ST1300 and I found a tread about the BF Goodrich Comp-2 A/S 205/50ZR17 and now I can not find it.

Can anybody running this tire respond that this is still their tire of choice and are happy with it ? I am not as concerned weather I get 15000 or 20000 miles I am more concerned about the handling. I read that some tires have a twitch when cornering.

I am not a super aggressive rider and I never feel anything abnormal on the Aero I do not remember what tire I run on that bike.

Thanks

That is the tire that I run. I use 28 psi and it handles marvelously. The "twitch" is only if I gear down during a hard lean. I have my second one ready to go on my bike, but I shouldn't need it for a couple of months. I do have a Battlax "rear" on the front.

I did have to smooth out the weld on the right side of the swing arm for one tire, not sure if it was for this tire as I have tried about 5 tires now.
