Dunlop Qualifiers / D208 / D207, Pirelli Diablo / Supercorsa / Supercorsa III . Just dont go for a cheap set or outdated. Most of the new tires are fine. The once that i put down are the once i ran/run everyday as well as on the track. All good. Hope it helps.

Here's a vote for Diablos. The dunlop 208s i had on there before weren't bad either...but they were kind of old when i got the bike so i can't really say much aobut them. But so far, I prefer the diablos for the street. Good price, last longer than the pilot powers, and still sticky as i've ever needed. (Not to mention good looking...

I vote for the search button, lots of discussions in lots of sections on this particular subject. As for other useful info, just dont buy cheap ones. Your tires are whats keeping your skin from sliding down the pavement at a high rate of speed.

I have Dunlop Qualifiers D207, got my rear tire off ebay (got a flat with only 1k miles on my old d207) and paid $130 shipped, and got a shop to install for $20...as opposed to the honda dealer wanting $339, oh and only $50 to install...what a deal from the stealership

I had a set of Michilins on my bike when i first got it, but I have been satisfied with the Dunlops
