| I bought the Bridgestone front tire for my 2012 Wing from Wingstuff. There were other retailers that had a better price, but I didn’t trust they would have a recent born on date. I received my tire in a few short days and it had a 3 month date which made me happy. I usually get 15k-18k miles on the OEM tires without using any beads or balancer products. I religiously check my psi and run about 3-5lbs over what Honda suggests. I get great even wear. I mainly ride FLORIDA flat/straight roads with annual trips to the mountains. |

| I've tried a few different brands but really like the bridgestones. Decent price pretty sticky(I ride my wing pretty hard) only get about 6000 miles out of them, but that's a thousand more than the others. |

| Bridgestone won't cup like Dunlop tires. Bridgestone tires give you more miles than the Dunlops tires. A lot better tire for the money. |

| The 40 pound front tire and 42 pound rear tire pressures is fine, I guess, if you are riding two up or are a charter member of the gold wing restaurant reviewer‘s Association (GWRRA) I do not consider myself as an “aggressive” rider but do stay to the twisty side. Once I got over 7000 miles on a Wing. BTW we always check tire pressure before EACH ride. With the Bridgestone at 40x42 I got 5300 + before the center was slick with the sides at 2/32 My weight is 215. Tire pressure should have been lower. |

| All bikes should have manufactures support like this. When it comes times for tires, there is no research needed for me. I get approximately 9-10K out of the rear and 13-14K out of the front. While I spend most of my time in the saddle watching the world go by, I also like some spirited riding. These tires handle the same from start to finish, especially the front. I am at 14K right now and the steering characteristics are still excellent! |

I’ve bought the 702 before. I like the way the bike rides with it. It handles well on wet and dry roads. As it did on my latest trip. But I bought the 702 3/2018, before a big trip. My riding has changed since I took an advanced riding class last year. I ride with two friends who ride 1200 BMW’s. So in order to keep up with them through the twisty curves. I’m more aggressive. Before I could get 15,000 miles out of a rear tire. The trip we had in April, we put on 3600 miles in 12 days. Pretty much staying off the freeways! Opting for twisty curvy roads! Yes we had a blast! But by the end of it. I had threads showing through in the middle and most of the tread was all but gone on the rest of the tire! I was shocked! Because I used to get so much more out of a tire! I’m going back to the 704. Hopefully that will wear better? |

| Buy the G704 and never look back, here is why: The stones stick like glue in the twisties. I liked the G702 initially because it raised the rear (I already have the forks set 10mm high in the triple trees) and made the turn in so much faster and slightly easier to change line mid corner. It also made the speedometer more accurate. The downside to the tire was that it lasted only 1/2 as long as the G704 because it sculpted so badly and wore so poorly it had to be replaced at 5,000 miles. I am on my 3rd set of the Bridgestones and love them, just not the G702. |

| I have been running Bridgestone tires on my 1800's. However, I ran a Run Flat car tire for some time on the rear. Recently I changed to the Bridgestone 702. I like the way the bike sits and handles. It has improved the performance and handling of the Goldwing. The speedometer reads the correct speed now. Again, I have been pleased with my choice of Bridgestone Tires for my Goldwings! |

| I had almost 16k miles on the first set of Bridgestone tires, never had any trouble with them, no cupping on the front and held the tire pressure the year and a half I had them on the bike.The second set is on this spring and I have 4k on them now without any problems again, I will buy them again, I have not had any other brand handle as well and wear as good. |
