All mounted and a initial scrub in ride @36ยบ 40mph winds.




















And I love em. They just beg to be leaned, n turn in so easy its amazing.

 

When I first got mine, I thought I was riding on a cloud. It felt like the bike was doing all the work with very little input from me. I love 'em! I would like to try Diablos next for kicks. They also get rave reviews...especially from Tahoe. I think he works for them in his spare time.

 

Let us know how they do.Im gonna try a set my next go around..

Stocks were 207's(ok but little squirmy when hot)..Running the dunlop qualifiers now(good deal on them)..So far i love them ,stick great and better feed back than the 207's..But i only got 400 miles on mine before the cold hit hard..

 

Hey!!! You tire guru's!!! Don't make me start a new thread![:@] Anybody run the Metzeler Sprtec M3's before and able to give me a hard-driven comparison to, say, the Diablo's or the Pilot Powers?

 

First of all glad to see you're still hard at it PG [sm=smiley20.gif]
Someone commented earlier about everyone raving about pilot power ct2. I have ridden about 1000 miles on one and have logged about 400 miles on a pilot road before my accident and two of my best riding partners one with a GSXR and one with a 06 R1 had just switched to the Continental sport attack. I had the opportunity before my surgery to put about 100 miles on the R1 and will tell you. Once you have gotten used to the feedback. It is very different from any tire. I have ever ridden you'll be in love with it and has a very unique profile and pricewise beats the hell out of pilot cycle gear, mounted it as a special order item in Marietta Ga $155 and including disposal of the old tire fee etc. etc. etc suggest anyone interested take a look at this article from Canyon chasers and this one from the VFR forum it explains the big difference between the Road attack and the sport attack and its similarities to the pilot

wow...great links BTW Hard, thanks. I'm in the market for something good that not everyone and their pooch already has. I don't need track tires but I want to keep the confidence high where it meets the road. I'm gonna go price out those Sport Attacks right now...

Great to see you on board



update: no 16" fronts for the Conti Sport Attack or Conti Race Attack...sorry 900RR'ers

 

155? pssh, I paid 160 bucks for the 190 rear and 112 for the front. plus 20 bucks shipping for both and equals to less than 300 bucks....for michelins. Dirt cheap if you ask me
