word on the street is the magic combination is a pp or 2ct front and a road2 rear
there is a local on a vfr that rides harder then 99% of the streetbikers and way faster then should/is legal and had no problems on the road2 rear, im looking for a fast tip in of the front pp profile and the wear pattern of the road2 compound

thing is i wore the sides out before the middle, so a 2ct wouldnt help my cause, then again a rc and good tire life is not something that you will hear in the same sentance

well I would think wearing the side out more than the center to be a good thing :lol:

My first PP was 8000,km could have been a few more but i had a punture in the face desided to cook it off GRIN ,second one 6000 km but thats drag racing on it now.

I just switched to PP's 1,500 miles ago, I expect to get 4,000 out of these. I really love them, and fortunately my bike isn't too hard on tires. I actually replaced my last set of tires because the front was shot before the rear.
