The 023 are a sea change compared to previous tyres. You wont believe the improvement grip and mileage wise from an 021 to a 023.Its well worth trying .
I also highly rate the roadsmart These tyres do suit the fazer too. Another superb combo of grip and mileage.I just fitted a set of partworns ( my own) to my ill handling speed triple.( vagueness from front end) .The bike now feels superb.These are such a good tyre.They steer a bit quicker than the 023s too, which maybe explains the improvement to the S3.Its a bike which is very sensitive to tyres. My fazer can go right to the end on a set of 023s without real detriment , but the S3 dont like it below about 2mm of tread.
I am sceptical that a typical fazer thou rider could get 8 k from a rear tyre but still get similar grip. If I get 5 k I am really happy , but then again my bike does get used hard, and does do trackdays too.But I would be willing to try out the PR3s next.
cheers
