A sad Continental tire story

[Cormanus]

Does the BT45 work on a CB 1100?

Here in Germany, Bridgestone does not suggest the BT45 for the CB, but the BT54 in 110/80-R18 (front) and 140/70-R18 (rear).

Also there is a clearance from Bridgestone for the T30 in 110/80 ZR18 and 160/60 ZR18. You can mix it with the BT23 (predecessor of T30).

I really enjoyed the T30 on my BMW, very good experience, also on wet roads.

Neither the OEM Dunlop, nor the OEM BT54 is available in Australia. The BT45 is the only thing available. I'm on to my second set and they work well on the CB1100, although, as I said earlier, I'd prefer a radial tyre.

Had the BT54 been available, I would have tried it.
