That's what I have.

Compound combos depend on your track and temps/conditions, ask the vendor. At my track in normal conditions most guys run a blue front and green rear.

Thanks, I'll have to try those - I run most my days with NESBA and I think they give fair prices on them.

Is that like a hard front and medium rear?

blue = supersoft
green = soft
yellow = medium

forget what the hard is.

I'm running Pirelli Diablos and I have a set of Bridestone BT-016s (couldn't resist $200 a set!) warming up for when I get around to changing them....

I love them. Only other tires I've had are some dunlops that fit on the buell, and some shinkos that were on my R1 when I got it. These things have amazing turn in. I'm not a great rider by any means, so my thoughts on them don't really matter honestly. From what "hard" riding I have done, they are great.

How did you like that 200 you had on your bike?

Bridgestone BT-021. Plenty of grip and seem to hold up well on a 600. I would spend my money on another set when these wear out.

My two favorite tires are the Avon Storm ST's and the Michelin Pilot Road 2's.


Of the two, the PR2's are the best. I really liked the stick and the wear on both. The profile of the two of them is very similar. The PR2's had better wet traction, but only slightly.

You know,I never finished that evaluation did I? Well,briefly,it caused me some set-up headaches for a minute but I "felt" a lot more stable in the turns with the 200 and it "felt" like I was experiencing less tire slip (I don't hit it hard enough to spin on corner exit anymore) when powering out of a corner. I actually,really liked the tire but I went back to 190 because of price and availability. Plus I got two sets of Diablos for $150 a set.

Yeah I think you're right. No one runs the hards anyways though
