Yes. One of the most popular set ups on my bike seems to be a road 2 rear and a power front. This way its still sticky on the edges but gets good mileage. The power and power 2ct even look almost identical.

I had already answered that question AND referred him to an expert...

The three tires are basically the same but use different rubber compounds, if I'm not mistaken.

I heard of them but their pricing wasn't that great before. MAW used to be the place and before them Chapparal was the place to go! I bought a set of Pilot Powers for $200 shipped there back in the day.

Yeah, they used to not be so cheap but as I said, in the last year or two they have been the cheapest.

Yep I've used both of them and also motosport.com

Locally I've bought sets from Cycle Gear and HardRacing...both giving 10 % off when you buy a set.
