Continental Sport Attack Tyres for Duke 748
 

Does anyone have any experiences of the above tyres on a Duke 748 ?

nope but i had them on the numpty i just wrote off.

Fitted them before a 1000 mile tour of Scotland with missus on back and they seemed OK in rain, dry roads etc but we weren't going fast and tyres weren't scrubbed onto the sides. Got home, went out next day with me mate and on first corner lost the rear, can't wok out whether i hit a bit of unscrubbed tyre edge or the Scottoiller had put a fine mist of oil on the edge of tyre but whatever, the bike ended up on its side.

pair i bought had a lot of release compound on them so it might be worth riding very carefully at first or making sure release compound is all washed off first.

I rode a 900SS with a set of road attacks fitted the other week and they felt fine.
The guy in the next unit to me is fitting loads of them to alsorts of bikes with real good feedback.
i can't see why the sport attacks should be any worse...........

rumour has it, the guy that designed the Diablos is now working for Conti?? the profiles look very similar. very good prices to

Oh dear. Maybe I should have gone for BT014

National are fitting a pair on loose wheels for £160 !!!

thats what i heard from Cambrian, the Conti importer. evidently he took a lot of the work for the diablo replacement with him so conti could get tyre up into production quickly.


up till i crashed the tyres were fine but i hadn't pushed them hard.
