what tires do u guys/girls run on your bike...dunlops 208, metzler M1, michelin powers, bridgestone bt-014. did u like them and how much mileage did u get out of them? also anyone have a D&D pipe on their F4, and is the sound good, im thinking about getting one, the one thats on there now is too quiet. thanks

 

I'm running dunlap 208's on my ride. The length of time or milage you get will depend on your style of driving. Just all around riding you should easily go the season if not a season and a half but if you start pulling Mad Max's and Red Light Smoke's you will obviously kill it quicker. The overall strength is decent out performing the Metzler's, they tend to wear VERY quickly and the ride is smoother than the bridgestone's or michelin's. So I suggest the Dunlap's myself. I love the way they grab and hold through the corner's, no slide (unless there is some dirt) and quick response.
As for the pipe, what do you want? Deep and throaty? Or Higher pitch screaming? Most D&D's I've heard were a bit higher pitched. That screaming sound. What are you running now? a Stock pipe? The new Double Barrel Devil's sound and look real nice.
Hope some of that helps? See you on the streets!

thanks man, i have a wiley co on there now, its italian..it sounds good,way better then stock..... but not the sound im looking for, i want the 208...but all of my buddies with r6's tell me not to get them.

 

i run pilot powers and love em... they don't take long to warm up and are really sticky. they can chunk though if you're not watching where ur driving, ahahaaa.
as for D&D, i hate that can. it seems most of the squids up here get them just cuase they are loud. IMO they don't sound good, just loud and sloppy. if you can take the hit, i'd go full akra, or just get a nice slipon from micron, muzzy, 2bros, yosh. M4 has a nice high mount at a good price. personally, i run a high mount 2bros

 

I run D208's I like the profile a lot and they only take a few miles to get sticky, and they really hug the road. Some people will complain as they are a tad below the Diablo Corsas, but I find them to be perfect for 75/25 street vs. track riding. And I have an Yoshi RS3 pipe. I don't love it but it came with my F4. If I were buying it myself I would have gone with an anodized Micron.

 

i was going to replace my stock with a red/silver fading highmount from micron, till i found out that if its colored, and the bike is left in the sun to sit, then the color fades. so my red would turn into a nice pink in not too long a time. plus the highmounts get rid of the rear pegs which i still want. thus, im saving up a bit more for a devil SB2 highmount

 

Ahh I see. I had a micron on my 03 R6 and the 99YZF600R I had afterwards so I'm partial to them, I always kept the bikes covered so it wasn't a problem. All our bikes sound like washing machines next to a VTwin though, lol...

 

i am running 208s and ive had them for over 8000 miles and still great tread. also i have a d & d pipe and has great sound, deep and throaty.

 

ok i have my power pilots 2 ct and they are the bomb. stickylike a gum. i have 3000 mi on them and i am looking forward to get 9 000 total on these guys
As far as exhaust RC3 is great

 

Pirelli Corsa III and Jardine RT-1 exhaust. Love them both.
