tyres
specifically for my MVF4 which I shall be using for both road and track use.
So...... what say you futhamuckers
How much trail-braking / sliding do you plan to do?
This shit is important and must be done right....
I'm sure I read earlier on Facebook there are deals to be had on Metzelers somewhere
Michelin Pilot Power whatever number they are up to.
It was 4's last time I bought some.
Summer roads and Track use....look here

All so good these days its down to brand preference really.
my Z has Pirelli Angel ST on, i like them, very grippy and very fast warm up.
I'm a Pirelli die hard... love em.. V1, V2`s blah blah.. :moto:
My mate hs switched to Bridgestones (Binned his Metzelers due to lack of feel and confidence on track, mind you they were the slicks so no good on road :rofl: ) Having seen his riding before (On the Metzelers) and now the bridgestones, id have to say they are worth a look.. Might even get myself some for me next euro trip
Bridgestone T30s on my bike...awesome in all conditions...I'm sold.
They're all much better than they were in 2006 when I first joined the site but tbh I'm still sticking it in the bends with Michelin...
So for you Id go Power RS...
I don't think there are any bad tyres, just the wrong tyres.
I've not had to buy any for a while so I'm a bit behind on current models but I'd imagine anything with a fast road / track focus from a brand that you trust is going to be good enough.

ordered..... based upon your esteemed recommendation.
I bought some black round ones the other day... cost about £250 for two, they seem ok ...

Got them on my B1..very good in the wet, warm up quickly. Nothing bad to say about them
S21s for me but I do ride like a super double hard bastard and get 17 miles from a rear.
Road riding .. yawn almost dozed off......
Track, Dunlop KR106/108 - moto2 tyre for a reason. Unbelievable side grip and will do 2 days on a rear at Almeria (hard on tyres) running in the 1.41/42's ...
I actually borrowed a R1200GS for a weekend recently .. bloody good it was !! Admittedly had a bit of Seton work but what a great fast road bike and scratched through the peak district with the best of them (much to some folks surprise) lol.

Got M7's on the rsv4... getting used to them. Fine for fast road, haven't pushed them in the wet yet
Dunlop D207s. ;)
