I was thinking, I wanna see how far I can lean these things over in the cold so I can stop worrying about it and enjoy riding!

hmmm, makes me leary about road 2's then. believe it or not it gets cold in ND, and i ride then.

May stick to powers... i'll get 7K out of them easy, and as long as I wait a mile they stick almost as well as the corsa's.

I'm not too worried. I don't usually ride when it's colder than it is now. And it was a decreasing radius corner, so I had to tighten my line a bit, which is when I felt the shimmy/slide/slip.

It didn't really shake me too bad. Just slipped then regained traction.

44 degrees? Shit, NO tire likes it when it's 44 degrees. Even the Bridgestone BT016's slip when it's that cold.

Bullshit. Both my Corsa III's and my PP's on the 1125 got broke in with weather in the 20's!

Never had a slip out of either one, and I pushed them far harder than I should have.

Here is a pic of the first ride on my PP's. Yes that's snow. Yes those are snowmobile tracks in the gravel.
In fact, I raced a sled that was in the ditch right before this... I won.

The pilot powers seemed to do rather well in the cold as did the original pilot roads. At least for me they did.

All I can go off of is my own experience. Maybe your bike isn't powerful enough to break the tires loose. It is a 600 class bike after all. My BT016's slipped all the time when it was that cold. PP's were much better in the cold but those were also on a less powerful bike.

I've spun up the rear on my 675 on BT016s. I don't really ride in anything y'all would call "cold"

My 015 would spin in a straight line at 75mph when it was just past the wear bars, in September.

Now I have a Dunlop Qualifier and it has much better traction.
