I wouldn't mix a chopper pilot with a fixed wing. Too many arguments would insue.
Just kiddin.
I run pilot road 2ct rear and pilot power 2ct front for average road use and got about 2mm chicken strips on the front and no strips on the rear. Mix and match for distance and grip. You want to hang it in there hard, my choice is fine, you want to hang it in there like a racer go for slicks. You wanna die, stick cruser tyres on there an well... nice knowing you.
If your learning to corner, learn how to set suspenssion first and then how to control your breaking and throttle, the rest will fall into place. I've leaned over as far as a busa will go on bridy 020's and pilot roads, draging both knees easily. They don't bead and they don't scuff like stickys do, and if you push it they will slide easily. But if your just running through and learning your craft a simple set of pilot powers or diablo corsers, that sorta deal will give you a good blend of grip and life. Power 2CT's are a good option for touring and sport, track riding due to the harder centres. But it's much of a muchness.
The riding courses are well worth thier weight in gold so have a blast and learn (Not that i have done one but had a mate that used to teach at them). If they dont teach you brakeless riding ask for your money back. (Ride around a track going as hard as you can and don't touch a brake, at all! engine control. Worth learning.)
Hope this helps a bit.

PS Simple answer. Mix whatever you like. Keep in mind lean angle potential. From my experience a slightly sticker front than rear on the busa is a good idea, but they dissapear quickly if you push them.
