BT020's are still available, never mind 21's.
Should pass MOT fine.
The idea of dual compound is to reduce the dreaded squaring off. Hard rubber in the centre, soft on the edges.
I used BT020's then the 21's, much better than the ME4's the bike came with, but yeah the rear would always square off bad.
On my second Michelin PR2 rear, done 2500 miles on it, still loads of tread left and the profile is nice and round.
The first PR2 lasted an amazing 6000miles.
Though at 8500 miles my front PR2 is just legal, not sure I'll get much more out of it. Nice eve wear again though.
Oh, ME4 was slow to turn.
BT20 and 21, the bike tended to drop in, which was welcome after the reluctant ME4.
PR2 I would describe as neutral, best tyres I've had yet.
Looking forward to trying the PR3's.
