Good leather isn't hot. The D Leather is good shit. In this heat, anything is hot as shit once it's the summer time. And my leathers are very breathable. Once I sweat and start rolling, it cools me off because of it. To me though, summer is off season here, lol.

Cool you mentioned the foot position. We were just talking about that this weekend. But I'm only in level 2 and, for this last td, I was at a new track and had lots of other things on the mind as well. Definitely want to try that though.

I happen to run the 003's too and have never had a problem. I run 27/25, but as was mentioned, depends on track and geography. I'm in TX.

Got mine from Competition Accesories for $250 shipped. It was during a sale, I don't think it's their everyday price. But they have those tire sales a lot. And it's for various tires too, all $250 shipped.

I'll sell you mine, one track day on 'em.

I got mine off motorcyclesuperstore.com for $225 shipped. Lucky to have a friend that could mount and balance for free. Not sure if they're that price any more. I should clarify they are the RS version not the pro.

I've loved them, but I'm on a 750 and have had a couple of the guys on liter bikes say they slip a little too much for them. Personally, I don't mind the drift that much, just reminds me to freakin' go. And since I'm lighter, how they feel to me differs as well. I've done 4 td's on them now and they've held up well, without warmers. I've done a couple street rides in between as well (and bump up the pressure to about 32/32).

Probably will get another set of them next time, or thought about the Q2's. Anyone running those?

Ah, well i may just get em from iron pony, since they're only 2 hours away and i usually get the package next day. shipping should be free over 100$ anyways.

I've heard good things at the track about those Q2s

and yea, i'd take those tires off your hands if i didnt know how you rode.
