Twisted Logic 12-15-2001, 08:50 PM I like the michelin Pilot myself I have run the Dunlops but front always cups and they take to long to warm up:D R1_Dave 12-16-2001, 02:16 AM What do you mean by the front cups? :rolleyes: Twisted Logic 12-16-2001, 08:23 AM The Dunlop always chops up(uneven wear) or at least mine always did. Maybe it is from doing to many wheelies. Twisted Logic 12-16-2001, 09:38 AM Havent tried the 010's yet,but the pilots seem to warm up quicker for me than the 207s. Are you running a 190 or 180? I did get to try the Dunlop 208 or 207 star whichever you want to call it and those rocked:rock Twisted Logic 12-16-2001, 10:29 AM Man accidental slides are definitely :eek: but when it is done on purpose:rock I like running the 180 it turns in alot quicker,IMO SmokeEater 12-17-2001, 10:02 AM Well, if she makes you wear one I guess it would be a ribbed one. Turn it inside out though. Who cares about "her" pleasure. ;) solo 12-17-2001, 11:20 AM Trojan :D Droog 12-17-2001, 02:25 PM I've got Bt010's on my R1 now (second set) Love them tons better than the stock D207's. Warm up well, loads of feedback for a road tire, turn in well and stable once banked over. They wear well too so they'll last you. Jalle 12-18-2001, 02:01 AM Pirelli Supercorsa or Metzeler Rennsport!!!!!
Tried Michelion Pilot and Dunlop 207 and they work well if you don´t take them to the edge.
Bought some Pirelle Supercorsa at the track, they had gone about 10 min in Supersport 600 -training. Cost me about 100 $ for a rear tire and then gives me about 2 - 3 trackdays. Sticks like glue!!!!
This is my experience anyway!!!! Mattias1 12-18-2001, 03:12 AM I had Pirelli Dragon Evo Supercorsa on my old blue R1, and they were the best tires I ever tried. Wobbly-wobbly steering (good, not bad) and plenty of grip. Didn´t seem to wear that bad either. Recommended! R1_Dave 12-19-2001, 01:51 AM Mattias,
What do you mean by wobbly steering...........good not bad ?:confused: Mattias1 12-19-2001, 03:15 AM Fast turning. That´s what I meant. Consistent light feel to the steering no matter what speed you´re going. Sorry, being a swede, I can´t explain it better... ricardo 01-08-2002, 09:48 PM I use Pirelli Supercorsa tires, they are excellent and grip very well in the wet and dry. I have no experience at the track, so i cannot give you my opinion on these tires taken to their extreme. I used to have dunlop 207's originally on the r1, but changed them because they seemed to slip a bit, could have been my imagination. Plus i really like the name PIRELLI!!!
Ricardo Droog 01-08-2002, 11:13 PM For a street tire I like my Bt010's better than the pilot sports I had and about a metric ton (that's a sh!tload in english units) better than the stock D207's | |
