i suppose its the luck of the draw on what you hit on the roads , as im running bridgestones on my 06 and i have just come back from a 2000 mile tour around the south of france , without a single twitch on the back end even through alot of wet riding there .

on the other hand i came off on my sv 1000 running pilot powers , at 15 mph in a straight line due to a small patch of the dreaded diesel so as i say i agree with most on here with regards that for normal bike use all of the above tires will do and are not that disimilar .............

track bikes dont have diesel to contend with on the track , but that would be throw the cat amongst the pigeons if they threw the odd dielsel patch on the track to livin things up a bit.lol
