  1. New to Me 1999 VFR800 - and yes, it is red, of course. 25 Feb 2012 03:46 Congrats from another '99er.
  2. Best tires for the VFR??? Updated 2011 21 Sep 2011 03:23 Bridgestone BT 023. Best tire I've had (5th gen).
  3. Bridgestone BT023? 15 Sep 2011 00:08 [image: View Post]kebrider, on 08 September 2011 - 05:35 AM, said: The 023s have a dual compound rear that gets warm quick and is quite sticky on the sides. The front is single compound but it also heats up quick and…
  4. Bridgestone BT023? 8 Sep 2011 02:30 To follow up, I had the 023 installed on the rear in July; probably put 600 miles on it . This is the best tire I've had in terms of ride confidence. I would recommend a set of these to anyone.
  5. Bridgestone BT023? 27 Jun 2011 03:35 Has anyone tried the BT023 on a Fifth gen yet? I need a new rear and considering it.
  6. RR Failure Again is there any cure for this? 23 Oct 2010 03:14 Can't remember if I posted this on here before, but the R/R, stator, and connectors all burned up on my 1999 at 24k miles (w/fairly new battery, ALWAYS on trickle charger). In accordance with the majority opinion on…

  10. Bridgestone BT023's 19 May 2010 15:53 Need a replacement front tire. When I called my tire guy to order a BT021 he said they are in limited production and that everyone is going to the new, better, BT023. I went to Bridgestones website and they dont even…
  11. Bridgestone Bt-021 Review 10 Jun 2007 17:39 I went ahead and replaced the old BT-020's with new Front and Rear BT-021's. Took my first ride on them yesterday. Everything feels good, except I notice that the bike seems now has a tendency to "fall over" in a sharp…
