Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 3:51 pmHaven't tried them myself, but a mate has them on a VTR1000. He said he won't be buying another set. He rates them as a good summer tyre, but in the cooler months he reckons they take too long to heat up.

Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 4:55 pmThey seemed to go OK on the Hoffs Z1000 on the run to Cooma in pissing down rain From where I was watching anyways 
Didnt really gert any "cold" weather on thr trip so doubt Wattie of The Hoff could comment on Smithy's mates comment about being no good in the cold

The pirelli is the V style tyre so it suits my style of bike (+ any other bike to me,love em).The pirelli make the bike feel "ezey" to throw into corners with its V shaped design.I guese its each to there own in the tyre thing.

Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 5:25 pmI am using the normal rossos. But I found them slow to warm up too. The first few times getting on the edge you need to be careful. I spun up the rear a couple of times early in the twisties.
But great in the wet!
I still don't think they are power matching.
Maybe the 2 is??
