[RaZ80]

what kind of advice are you wanting?

tyre pressure? (Need your body weight)
Compound? (how hard you going to ride?)
Brand?
size? 180/190
grip level?
wear level? "Busa riders always count in three's.... 100, 200, 300"

How's that gonna work Rocket

Like........hoot through a turn & note the speed at which she lets go, repair your bike, fit the alternate, hoot through the same turn &.....................

Maaaaate............ you know as well as I do that these modern tyres are ALL good compared to the rock hard shit we had to use..K 81's etc

These modern tyres will turn your reefton wood duck into someone half decent <i></i>

Have been using pilots on my old girl for the last few times. Sport on the front touring on the back, no trouble and good kms.

[m8ee]

I'm on my second set of pilot powers, they kick on white lines even in the dry, are very unstable when even just 1 or 2 psi off pressure, and constantly leak air, I can't wait to finish them off and I will never put another set on.

Some poeple love them though, I am not one of them. Don't ride behind me, I might bin it, Don't ride in front of me ya slow moving bastard, Just ride beside me and shut the f*** up.<i></i>
