Not a long-wearing tire for sure. I'll be lucky to get 4k out of rear. I only ride for pleasure in the mountains which are practically in my back yard.
The tires do instill confidence on the twisties.
Figured someone would want to know.

Did you mean 4000 miles...if yes, I do not want them even for free.

My F800GT came with Road Attack 2's from the factory. 450 lb. bike, about 90 hp. They were squared and scalloped within 4k miles. I know they weren't the 3's, but they soured me on Continental.
Peterbaron,
It is a racing compound tire what do you expect?
I'm sure Continental will be sad to hear that you don't want them even for free.
Loneranger,
I had a Pinto, a Vega, that were POS'...I guess I should no longer be interested in Fords and Chevy
I'd take em for free. As many sets as they'd give me.

No, no Ferret, ONE set only

The Web link gives more detail on the tire. I would not consider them for touring purpose or for riding in flat-land states. Pricey tires indeed. Just wanted to let people know they will have a new choice in tires.
