I don't see Macadams, Avon Roadrunners, Pirelli Phantoms....meh what sort of a tyre comparo is this :roll:

So I guess I have to settle for Power 2 CT's for the road and Dunlop GP thingo's for the track

I voted pilot power because I am yet to try a SuperCorse rear...

I currently have a BT016 rear and a Supercorse front... I find the BT016 front wears out way to friggin quickly...

Can we have a poll for the worst tyre ever used??? If so, I'm voting for Bridgie 002 (Street) and the Conti Sports as two of THE WORST!!!! :lol:

Best road tyre for a balance of grip, life, steering and handling is the PR2's! At the track, it's a different story...but on the road, I havn't used anything better to date. 8)

I can't wait till tyre technology gets to the point where we can have Moto GP levels of wet and dry grip.........AND they last 60,000 klms like my forby tyres do!!!! :lol:

If that's what you're after skip right past the Macadam and can I suggest ........ the Hi Sport :) :) ...if you can't get a Pirelli Phantom (silver dot of course)

...and for Hoffs benefit...I actually had Macadams on my GSXR1100 before going to the "race oriented" Hi Sports :) :) :) ahhhh the good old days of 18" tyres
