I also recently installed a set of Pilot Road 3s - 120/70-17 front and 190/55-17 rear. So far they are fantastic. The rain grooves look like they can handle wet roads quite well and I hope they last as long as some of the reviewers have been saying.

I recommend getting the matching front.

Default pilot 3

road pilot 3 cannot be beaten for quality versus cost,exceptional tyres have a set and cannot rate them enough,salesman tried to talk me into having metzler m7's,which were never going to happen,they were nice tyres but not really appropriate for my cbr 600f.

road 3 has really helped me as a new rider. I've quickly learnt so much about tyres,all fact's that i was totally oblivious as a car driver.Having faith in my tyres and doing regular checks.

Found a screw head buried in the back tyre and replacement pilot 3 being fitted tomorrow.
