Who cares about the tread design if the tire's crap? Here, how aboutI make it a math problem:Conti sport bike tires =crap =Conti sport bike tires' tread design = crap. Joey, what kind of comment is that?
conti attacks are the ****! they look good, they stick to the road like bubblegum, and they dont wear out nearly as fast as the pilot and metzer. ive road on metzer, pilot, and conti and i luv the conti. also ur not gonna pay for the name like u would wit pilot and metzer. also ive heard very good things about the shinko (i havent had a set but i will be purchasing for next set).
Well, it's actually Metzler... I don't know Pimpn, the Pilot Powers have a hands-down majority of the riders here loving them....hard to read through the entire thread and suggest something else over them...I'm expecting to get the pair in the next week or two.
my friend with a 929 rides shinko and they suck compared to the pirellis he had on there... couldn't afford to get them again so he went cheap... now he's saving up to get pirellis again
dont get me wrong the metzler and pilot's are outstandin tires, i got a buddy that has a 54 and ive never seen anything but a pilot on his. ive went threw a pilot and metzler in a week doin rollin burnouts and wheelies, just for the price, stickiness, tread pattern, and tread ware i was sold on the conti. but hey its a thread about preference to give opinions to the thread starter, so i wont put the pilot and metzler in the dirt.
Ha! I talked to a guy today who was RAVING about the Pirelli Diablo Corsa III's...said they were actually a little stickier than the Pilot's but don't last long at all. He's on his second set after about 2500 miles. He says he "races." So, I guess any tire wouldn't last too long if you ride that aggressive.
