I HAD Diablo Strada's... LOVED them. rode in all sorts of weather (minus snow) and never had a slip. rode from Fargo to FL and back up to Indy with about 70% being super slab... and they were only just SLIGHTLY flat spotted.

just curious-i need some new tires...i commute, but its a 5min commute. seriously. im not a agressive knee dragger, but im riding the twisties and learning, a trackday is in the future.. i have a totally different bike to drag race, so this one will never see the strip, and im rarely on the freeway for more than 80miles at a time. '00 gsxr 750.

was lookin at Bridgestone BT002's just because i saw a deal on them. other than that, havent really looked.

what say you? pp's? o16's?

Regular Pilot Powers for the street and Michelin slicks for the track. Use to use Pilot Races on the track and got a chance to ride slicks for mad cheap so I tried 'em. I felt locked in all day with the front, but the rear wasn't the greatest. I'm sure tuning my suspension would've helped with it though. I'm gonna try the Dunlop GP11s next time I need track tires, but I'm sticking with the Powers for street stuff.
