Just a curious poll on what tire people like on their 1000rr. Remember I am thinking commuting/weekend riding to even the track.

I've been very happy w/ the Pilot Powers...haven't had them on the track, but in the twisties above L.A. they feel really good and offer excellent mileage.

Pilot powers rule i have had BT 014s but the pilots are a far better tyre going to try the 2ct version next time!!

 

Metzeler Racetec, a class of there own

 

Used the racetec and super corsa your quite right that they are a great tyre but an all round tyre choice for me would still be the pilot power coz when we were in the south of france last year it pissed down for about an hour an you have never seen rain like it,and they dont do any drainage on the roads so your riding in standing water ,so my point is that racetec would not have coped down these twisty roads ....

Im trying slicks on my track bike for the first time this year see what all the fuss is about!!

 

Ya right Quan, just i`ve never liked the michelins in the wet. But ya right for a road tyre.

 

dont do wet weather meself on the whole but ya kno needs must sometimes!!

 

The Racetecs arent as bad as you think in the wet, i`ve `tested` em

 

Dunlop 209GP's mostly in the 758 compound...

Make sure to get the tires made in GB, not in Buffalo. Couple of lbs difference...

There is a reason that they have won every AMA championship in the last what, 8 years?
