On their website it looks like there is some type of warning for the front tire on the ST1300. At least the is a blinking orange "something" there. Any idea what that means Tim?

If you click on it, it says no official approval for Conti tires by motorcycle manufacturer

Not sure it does that on the ST1100 also. I'll have to snoop around and see what I can find.

Hope they last longer than the original RAs. I got ~5500 miles from a front and back on my ST1300.

I loved 'em, though, while they lasted :D

It doesn't do anything when I click on either flashing parts. There is a flashing round circle after the tire info and and under the rim section there is what looks like a cut-away of a tire on a rim with a orange quarter circle flashing. This is all under the ST1300 front tire fitment section.

I won't swear to it, but I believe these are the tires that Skyboy had on his bike when I took it for a spirited ride around Eureka Springs, AR this past summer. If so, I must say they inspired great confidence. I'm sure I may have even worried Skyboy at how fast I was twisting the throttle through the turns on his generous loaner. The tires felt very planted and tracked as good as anything I have yet to try, and I've tried pretty much everything except the Storms. I can't comment on how they do in the rain, but I was pleasantly surprised by the dry weather handling. If memory serves, Skyboy said he was getting pretty good mileage out of them as well.

January issue of Sport Rider magazine gives them glowing reviews:

"on the wet course...fantastic. Edge grip and braking performance were great....very predictable and easy to rip around the wet track."

Uh oh, "All the common sizes will be available" I don't think that means us.;)
