In that kind of bracket, Michellin Pilot Power 2CT or Pirelli Diablo Corsa III

My GSXR ate its rear 014 after 1800 miles I was getting 3000 to 3500 miles out of a 2CT, I reckon I'll get the same, perhaps a little more out of the Diablo

IMHO both the Michllin and the Pirelli are a superior tyre to the 014, they give better grip and feel. The Pirelli for me is better in the wet than the Power 2CT.

If it were my cash it would be the Diablo Corsa III
