I put Conti Road Attacks on my S2T and love them.
I also put a Sport Attack Front and Road Attack Rear on my XB9S.
The Roads don't seem to last quite as long on my XB as they did on my S2T but I think that has more to do with how I ride it. The RAs went 5000 miles on the S2 and still look new.

I like it very well.
If I'm going to loose traction I'd rather the rear slide than the front.
I did a track day with that setup a couple of months back and they perform great for me.
The rear did slip a couple of times but nothing scary or unexpected really.

Check out the latest issue of Sport Rider. They just did a test on the latest tires from some of the top makers.
