Maybe I ll go rebel and put a Road 2 front to match my rear.
I just bought Camp91's sliders off zrxoa. http://zrxoa.org/forums/showthread.php?t=24520 I think Rod's are genuine Oggies but I'm not 100% sure. They look practically the same though.

I wouldn't go the Road 2 for the front. Most that run Road 2's on the rear run a Pilot Power 2ct on the front.

I agree with Nelso, I either run with 2 x sports or a softer tyre on the front. It's easier to save a rear wheel slide than losing the front. My 3c

the best distance mod for my ZR1200A1 that i've owned since new (& put 95827km on) is the Laminar Touring Lip that i installed last summer

http://www.laminarlip.com/zrx.php

i only bought it for a trip but i'm never taking it off...i'm spoiled...it's fuckin' brilliant!!!

it's actually not a screen as much as a spoiler...clean air, no turbulence

still think it looks like shit but i'm a rider not a poseur & had my license since '72 so i'm a bit worn out...LOL
