RE: TIRES!!
 

i would recommend the diablo stradas for you...
if you have any of the other tires, you'll be replacing around 5K...which may be what you're putting on per year...so you will be changing it every year.

as far as stick...many people love to blame the tires for their crappy riding...just remember, nothing is better than someone who has great throttle control...and knowing the bike well. so don't substitute a super sticky tire for bad riding habits.

i saw on the list that you had the PP 2CT...do not get those, they will wear very quickly.

RE: TIRES!!
 

I was able to get 4k on a set of D208s, including 1 trackday. I got these froma friend who also had some milesplus 1 or 2 trackdays on them. Although the shops say they have more miles in them, I'm replacing them before next season.

If I can get milelage like that out of a set of Qualifiers, then Damn!!
