I have 2ct road, Really nice and sticky. Great towards more on road and and road curving. Has more side grip than PP 2ct. If, you want something simlar to PP2CT get the Pure. I'm going to get that next on my GSXR.

I just fitted a Road 2 to the rear.
I got tired of changing rear tires every few k on my commuter. From what I've read, the dry traction is still pretty dam good and the wet traction has gotten rave reviews. Sounds like it's worth trying to me.
I suppose we'll see, but I doubt I'm gonna have too many issues with them...
I liked the new dunlop qualifiers. They gripped great no matter what, but dam... like 3-4k kinda sucked.

I think im leaning towards the BT-016's, i had them on the 954 i felt comfortable on them plus it's hard to look past the cost, but then i think the pilot power's.... Why is buying tires so difficult

Yeah same for me, I only pick road since my friends have the road 2ct. So, the only thing is to try them and I like them. Its a little more money, but will worth the try. You pay what you get! Right! I like bto16 on my gsxr there are on the secound season now I put about 3000 miles on it last year. Not a lot since I have 2 bikes that I switch back and forth. by the end of the year I will be changing them. Want to try something else, like the mitch pure
