Hey all. Gonna be in the market for some new rubber and wanted to know the difference in tires and whats out there. Bike is an 06 1KRR, I don't track the bike, but would like as much performance and grip as I can get. Don't care how long they last as long as I'm not swapping them out every other month. I don't ride really aggressive, it's cold and rainy here 8mo out of the year, but when it's sunny and warm, I like to get on it some. Daily rider, rain or shine. Any suggestions? I was thinking either PP's or qualifiers, as they seem to be the best tire there is, how do these perform in the rain?

 

Man, no experience with any good rain/performance tires??

 

I hate the PP and love them. I had the Qualifiers, and at first they were good, but then, to me, the grip dicipated quickly. The PP grip AWESOME in warm weather and do very well in the rain as well. Not much movement at all unless you are really into it and it starts to slide a little. But I would get those if it were me. I will difinately get them again. Those or the Metzler M5's.But, between the PP and Quals, I would difinately go PP IMO.

 

Sounds like you really like the PP's, so whats to hate about em?
