Default RE: I need new tires!!!

I always plug the Diablos when i have a chance. Great for aggressive street riding, very sticky, but go a bit longer without squaring off than tires like pilot powers if you do a lot of non-twisty riding.

My friend had the pp's on his RR and loved them, but took one long trip across the state and could swear he watched the tread wear down after a few hours. Like i said, great tire...but since i commute with my bike i went with the Diablos to give me a few more miles. And let me tell you, they're great.

90% of the time I do "touring" type riding rather than sporty stuff. I went to the latest Avon sport touring tire, the Avon Storm AV55 (front) and AV56 (rear). They heat up quick and are very predictable. I wouldn't go on a track day with them if someone had a set of true sport tires around, but for the street they're great, much better than any Dunlop or Bridgestone.
