Me too. Plain old Pilot Powers are dirt cheap now. I get pretty good mileage out of them even with a weekend on the Track. I'm sure some of you guys would turn them into a slippery/greasy mess but they work well for me.

Yep. I can pick up Pilot Powers for around $200 a set, and they do everything I need them to. Granted, my riding is nearly all street these days, but the tires fit my needs perfectly, they're cheap, and I get a lot of miles out of them. Besides, if I said I could out-ride Pilot Powers on the track, I'd be a damn liar.

Hell I don't even buy street tires anymore. Just DS. Powers worked well enough for me back when I had the RR too, but they aren't the new hotness for street/track.

I think it may be something like Pilot Pures or those Street legal track tires from Bridgestone.
