Go for Michellen pilot powers they are the tits they cope with track day lean angles and wear really well

Dragon Evo's are good but they arent in the same league as the Pilot Power 2CT's, i had MTR22 (Dragon Evo's) on the Mille and they felt too hard on the road, took a while to warm up and didnt really inspire confidence, had Pilot Sports on the ZX9R, they were fine but wear out far too quickly compared to the newer Pilot ranges ;)
Michellen pilot powers.. so impressed with them
wear rate and grip have been first class

Thay are calle pilot powers. 2cts are a different tyre
Go to a tyre dealers and they will source them for you i think they are going for about £180 a pair
Ive done Lydden Brands and clocked up at least 2 thousands miles and they still had rubber left!

Your the one getting out your pram i was offering advice and you moan about it.
I didnt call you names so dont call me names i take it your old enough to know better.
I'm sorry for saying ****** there was no need. its just you ask opinions we give them and you moan . It just ****ed me off.
Fair enough it wasnt about the tyres you specified but the one's i mentioned are better and would be more up for the job

When you start to get personal you have instantly lost all credability and if you are going to continue acting like this I suggest you find another site.
All people are doing is trying to give you more options especially as he is more experienced and knows what he is talking about!
There is no need for this type of aggression all you are acheiving is putting other people off of helping you.
Personally I would go for the 2CT`s as I hear they are the better tyre.

Sorry i take it all back , was not being personal do apologise , i only wanted info on the tyres specified , i do know there are much better tyres out there and i thank you all for your input , but one does get annoyed when i get different answers from what i originaly need answers to ! Like most posts i see on here they all seem to wander and veer from the point in question , maybe my fuse is a bit short and sincerely say sorry to anyone i offended :cuddle

Your first choice will wear better, your second will perform better, different beasts really.

the problem is both your choices are crap!!
get the pilot powers like everyone has metioned
they stick to road much better and you will be able to corner better ;)
