PP....Personal Preference. There is no right answer here and you won't find one. This subject has been hit on many of times here. We will give you our personal preference. It is up to you to decide what you like. I personally like the Shinko 009 and Continental Attacks. I will be trying the new Shinko 010 Apex's real soon. Some will say Pilot Powers, some will say Bridgestone.......

 

o brother... here we go. this'll be a touchy subject for a lot of people.

i'm with texas, pp is what i've used and liked. i've used the pirelli corsa - and i'll never ever use those again.

i have two shinkos in my garage getting ready to go on next. 010s, they look like the pp tread wise, i'm lookin forward to getting them on.

i'm not a track rider, so i don't know anything about that

 

I swear I could pull up atleast 5 thread started with the same question posted within year 2011 in just this section. I would hate to see how many have come up in the entire forum for 2011....

 

Sorry, didn't mean to create havok. I was just trying to get an idea of I guess what you run on your 954. And what experience of tires, In your opinion, your PP, which you like the best. The best grippy tire you have had. Not care for longevity of the tires.

Street:

 

To know best tire for your bike, you must know how you ride? How hard you ride? How frequent? City street or curvy road. Then select best tire for your riding routine. For example if you only ride to work? For commute purpose...I would want something that will last long. I wouldn't want a super soft tire for track? Ditto...

 

Tires are like drugs, you get what you pay for...LOL...name brand or generic??

 

I ride in the twisties and much as possible and mostly on weekends. So no commutting for me...even if I did use my bike for commuting, I live 2 miles from work.

I want to ride the wheels off of this thing, but of course, being safe.

 

Anybody tried the Dunlop SportMax Q2 tires?

 

Actually you can take a bike with cheap tires and set up the forks and the rear shock to compliment the tires and get better then the average everyday riders bike with great tires and be better off. But at the same time have a well set up bike and put cheap tires on it and it can make it a big mess.
