Bridgestone Exedra G702

[valk2001]

 have an '01 Interstate and have been running Dunlop Elite 3's for the last 5 years with good mileage.  Has anyone had any experience running the Bridgestone Exedra G702 on the rear of a Valkyrie?  If so, what did you think of it.  The reviews I have read range from average mileage to great mileage on the rear.  Some reviews indicate it is not very good on wet roads.  I can get a great deal on this tire but do not want to sacrifice handling or mileage.  All comments welcome.  I have a Bridgestone Exedra on the front and have been running it for 2 years and it performs well.  Thanks in advance.

I have one on mine now. I just got back from a 3000 mile trip. I'm very happy with the 702 so far I will try the Bridgestone front tire when I ware out the E3 on front now.  Not as noisey and the best part is that is $50.00 cheaper than an E3. Time will tell how the mileage will be but I think it will be about the same.

I have one and like it so far after 4000 miles... tread is holding up well and handling seems to be the same as my E3's...... I will be putting one on the front soon...... Have not had it in the rain yet.

I am on my second one in the back.  Very good traction, I haul a trailer a lot of the times and I have had no issues with wet conditions.  I never had any thought of 'oh crap that tire does not feel right'.  They handle good in the rain and I will get another one when this one wears out.  As for mileage, well like I said I haul a trailer a lot and they will last me about 5000 miles and I always change my tire before the tread is completely worn off.
