Basically just that. What are the preferred tires these days?
Thanks.

For me, Michelin Pilot Power 3

 

[Chicknstripn]

continental motions treat me real good.
I can usually find them for under $200 a set.

I am running metzeler M5's. Love them so far. I only have about a 1/4 chickenstrip left and no grip issues. Under $200 a set.

Ok, I look all those up.

Thanks guys.

Michelin Pilot Road 2. Sticky for what I use them for and great mileage! I had Pilot Power but got tired of changing them every year.

Michelin pilot power 2ct`s They look sexy and ride sexy!!

I'm looking into the Michelin pilot power 2ct seems like a good tire for the money. Should be a nice step up from my Continental Motions

I liked pp2's once warm, (which sometimes takes awhile) they were great and sticky, I did only get 5000 miles from them. I just ordered Metezler M7's to try something new, no reports yet obviously except fairly cheap (230$) for thier claims of quick warm up, grip, water shedding capabilities and life. We'll see.

Anyone have any comments on the Pirelli Rosso 2?

Thanks in advanced.

I had my first low side on Pirelli Diablo Rosso 2, NEVER AGAIN.

I use Michelin Pilot Power 3. Boss levels of handling. Also, they are supposed to last 20% longer than 2CTs.

Also upgrading to the 2010 rear wheel, axle and bearings.
Next I need to figure out how to get a race map on my ECM.

I love the power 3s. I had them on both my Ulysses and my firebolt. I went for something a little more dirt worthy for the uly but still run them on my firebolt. Also had the Pirelli Diablo strada but liked the power 3s much more. Keep us informed on what you think.

I slapped on some perelli diablo corsa rosso and love them.

You gotta be careful with the Pirelli Diablo. They are branded as made in Germany, but supposedly there was quite a large batch made in China.
