Country road / Autobahn: (134 points, 1st place): The Road Attack 2 is a real recommendation for the country road. With very good feedback, he spontaneously conveys trust for his custody reserves in an inclined position. Especially heavy and unwieldy motorcycles benefit from the handy properties of the touring rubber from Conti. No other tire from the test field can actually hold a candle to it in terms of maneuverability. He can be steered from one lean angle to the other with almost brilliant light-footedness. Real country road cracks will appreciate the razor-sharp steering precision, with which particularly tight lines can be driven and any course corrections can be implemented with little steering effort. The righting moment when braking in an inclined position is very low.

Wet test: (78 points, 6th place): After the brilliant parade on the dry runway, the Conti dramatically loses ground on wet roads. The grip reserves are behind that of the competition, both when leaning and when accelerating out of corners. The border area is narrow and announces slides very late. The good handiness doesn’t help either.

Conclusion: The agile Road Attack 2 is a real recommendation for the country road due to its outstanding handiness. Provided it’s not raining. Because the Conti cannot convince when it is wet.

MOTORRAD verdict: 4th place 212 points
