 old topic..which tire
Ok its been covered loads of times. I lost track over winter. My rear is about 200 miles past its sell by date. 2300 miles on the clock. The grip on standard is ok, cos bike is still in 1 peice (touch wood) the feel from it is rubbish. Corners slow. Cold trash send it spinning and yes I shouldnt do it. but its not a bad tyre. I dont carte about wear as long as the wheel stayed put. Which is the best sticky tyre out now. Any good prices about

My Neighbour has just sold his 2006 ZZR1400 and replaced with a brand new GTR1400, he really got on with the Michelin Pilot 2CT, got about 5,500 miles to a rear. However he wasn't pushing it.

I use conti road attack on my 600 and get A year of use from them which is 13k. If you want softer the race attack is good. I get them of ebay for £120 a pair and my local shop fits them for £10 each.

 Re: old topic..which tire
The power and wait is different but the tyres were recommended to me by some one at work who use's the on hie 1200 Bandit, who in turn was recommended by a bike shop owner who race's on them.
