The RC is shod with Pilot Powers right now. Once I get my spare rims straightened the I'll toss some Pirelli's on them and see what those feel like. It had abused battlax (sp?) tires on her when I first bought her, but I'll reserve my opinion for later because I've had a lot of repairs to do. I'll post up back to backs of the Pirelli's and Michelins next year when I get both sets of wheel back and with decent rubber on them. I don't ever expect more than 5k out of a set of tires on the RC.

The VTX gets Dunlop D404s iirc and they last about 13k miles with how I ride.
