Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S21 Tyre Review

Bridgestone's Battlax S21 tyres are a Hypersport option that offer a more road orientated option than the RS10, and replaced the S20 EVO. You can find the full written tyre review at BikeReview.com.au here:

For some context the S21 replaces the S20 EVO, offering performance and mileage gains compared to the outgoing version, and is aimed at the larger capacity side of the sports market, and sits below the more track/race but street legal RS10.
Compared to the S20 EVO, the S21 has taken some big steps forward as far as dry performance and wear, with Bridgestone claiming 36 per cent better wear, while dry grip, handling and stability are all also improved. To put their own testing figure on this, Bridgestone claim a two-second gain in lap times at the Sugo test track. Wet weather performance is largely on par with the S20 EVO, so you’re also not trading off anything in this area.

Hey, just here to let you know i like this review, its very "everyday rider" oriented, just what i needed.
I'm changing my S21s tomorrow, and was doubting between the same, or the T31s, this video gave me the final push in making the decision. I'd also like to add: I bought my bike (Tracer 900) in december with 10k km on the odometer, with the rear S21 already a bit flattened at the center, I've now completely worn them out at 17k km, so they can take a beating. this includes a day on the track and 2 trips worth over 4k km combined. Cheers
